Hello Cambridge, from this point forward my main objective on my blog is going to be centered around the creation of my Cambridge final project. It's a scary thought process since all of this will be worth a lot of my grade, but this will also help me become a better person and a better filmmaker. But with my wonderful teacher and everything that she taught me, I think I will do great. My teacher made a slide show for us about film openings, and we were told to take notes, these notes helped me understand more about film openings and how to produce one I will also be using these notes while creating my project to see if I have missed any key points on how to make a well-made film opening:

Transitioning into Portfolio Project
My initial approach to this project would involve establishing a setting, this is very important because it helps the viewer get a grasp and imagine for themselves what is coming next. Additionally, this makes them feel engaged in the scene and leaves them on edge, especially if it's horror or drama. Creating a setting in a film opening can set the stage not only for the tone and mood but also for the genre of the film. It does this by giving meaning to the time, place, and environment in which the action takes place. It grabs the viewer in the beginning by foreshadowing some of the key themes, which in turn gives the audience a certain perspective of the film work, and makes the film world seem real and possible.
My other approach would also establish a conflict to make the film opening more engaging to the audience. Moreover, at the end of the film opening, it would leave the audience on an important cliffhanger. The importance of a conflict in a film opening also includes establishing the plot, setting the tone, creating the setting of the story, and engaging the audience. To establish this conflict and to make it unique, I would have to show the protagonist as soon as possible, avoid starting with flashbacks, and start the conflict in the early bits of the film opening.
