Changing our idea and analysing Rom /Com openings

After looking at our horrer film idea again me and my group decided that it would not work because of a number of reasons: the location we wanted to film in would not be possible, alot of people are doing horror films and also it is very popular for people to do a chase themed film. We brainstormed a few other genres and ideas and finally concluded to choosing a romantic comedy because it will be funny and relatable for us to film. We have been analysing various openings of Rom/Com's.

Bridget Jones is a classic Rom/Com About a women and her cringey love life, this film has given us alot of ideas for our own film. We would also like to create a film about a ditsy woman who is terrible with keeping a relationship but eventually falls in love. Another thing we would like to incorporate from the opening of Bridget Jones is playing the scene and having the opening credits fading in and out.

Another opening of a Rom/Com which I liked was 10 things i hate about you which is an unexpected love story set in an American high school. The opening credits are very simple with a panning shot on the school and the writing scribbled over the top in different colours. the music for this film is very good because it is all from the correct time period and genre.
