We had to choose actors that would fit the requirements of the role that we wanted them to play, firstly we had to choose an actor that could play the role of a homeless man, so obviously he had to be quite scruffy looking. We briefed for the actor to wear old and unclean looking clothes (e.g jogging bottoms, cap, hoodie, old trainers). We then had to find someone to fit the role of a shifty looking character, they would have to be wearing preferably all black clothing, as the colour black often connotes danger and a sense of the unknown. With the introduction of this 'shifty' character, there would instantly be a twist in the plot of the opening sequence.
Overall, i feel that our choice of characters and plot of the opening sequence was very good, but problems arose when we had to edit all of our footage into a 3 minute time slot. Firstly we had trouble creating all of the different effects on our opening sequence, and we were close to running over the deadline so our soundtrack to the sequence was very rushed and was not up to the same standards as the onscreen footage. So to conclude, I and my group may need to improve on our time management on the creation of a music video, as it hindered us in the effectiveness of our opening sequence.
