As a group we have decided to use a superhero themed opening for our children's film, with the genre being action. Me, Esther and Jade are the main characters in this as:

• Me- Playing the part of elastigirl. 
• Esther- Catwoman
• Jade- Lightning girl

As we all play parts of superhero's costume was very important in our opening. As superhero's usually have glamourous costumes, that slightly hide their real identification. We researched well into this, and found many inspirational ideas from different films. Such as the Incredible's. We took the idea of wearing something over our faces to hide our identity, and either a cape or tight clothing to make us look like superhero's. We do realise that if costume is not bought on the day of filming it would damage our final product and so we need to make sure that every item is bought in and worn correctly. As superhero's have two identity's, so the other identity would be a normal teenage girl. Obviously no special costume would be needed for this, as we could all just wear our normal clothes. 

The location of our sequence has to be limited to the college. Although we have not yet decided on an actual place, we know that we need the refectory, a place outside, and a room with a blank background. These will help create the opening sequence and help people decide on the genre of the film.
