The Opening sequence for Resident Evil: Afterlife is one of my favourite film openings. I love the tension and sinister soundtrack as it moves well with the film and it's themes of horror. The slow motion effects and slow panning of the girl builds a slight tense atmosphere which gradually increases with the aid of the soundtrack, it makes us wonder what's about to happen next. For those who have already seen the previous films, it is pretty clear what's about to happen and that the girl is about to turn, as it follows the pattern of the other films. It only takes 6 seconds for the opening credits to start, which is pretty fast compared to most films. I would like to be able to do a similar opening scene, which involves establishing shots, cutting to Kayleigh lying on the floor unconscious with an ominous soundtrack to accompany it, finally ending with A close-up shot of Kayleigh's eyes opening, looking straight at the camera.
