Re write for opening sequence

from the finding pre our audience research, questionnaire and focus group we have gathered information which allows us to be able to make some changes that will grab our targeted audience more 
  • Close up of computer, email pops up onto the screen
  • Close up of a womans hand using the keyboard with red nail vanish on, muttering of song 
  • Back to the close up of the computer screen, the email is opened and it reads "Amy today you will meet your prince charming. He will solve a problem for you, but dont let him slip away, you have to repay the favour or you will never find love."
  • Amy reads the email and says quietly to herself 'Prince charming?!',
  • Pan on the clock, Amy looks at the time and shouts 'home time!'
  • Amy is seen walking out of the door
  • Tilt from feet upwards on Amy walking down a street on her way home from work. (She is smartly dressed)
  • She walks past a poor man who is counting his money, he notices her being followed by a boy
  • As she walks past the poor man (Justin) the boy grabs her bag and runs
  • Justin starts to chase the boy
  • There will be a short montage of the homeless man chasing the boy, he finally manages to get the bag back
  • He gives the bag back to Amy and says 'there you go love'
  • Amy is shocked and says 'oh thanks'
  • Justin replies 'no problem'
  • There is a flash back of the horoscope.
We decided to make these changes because our target group told us that it needed to be realistic, therefore we changed the homeless man to a poor man, as it wasn't realistic for a rich woman to fall for a homeless man and we thought that she is more likely to give a poor man a chance rather than a random man that is living off the street.
We added more into the start of the opening sequence to interest the audience more. So we thought by including a shot of Amy reading her horoscope because many women like to read their horoscope so it relates to the audience.
We changed the last piece of our opening sequence as we wanted to finish it with something that makes the audience want to know more. To do this we finish with a close up of the two characters looking at each other and then a flash back of the horoscope which says that she will meet her 'prince charming'
