the opening sequence starts of with the not so ordinary dream of the protagonist, Pandora Blake. this film plays alot on dramatic irony as little did Pandora know, her dream was not a dream but a vision from the future, a perminition. This permonition leads her into the mission of saving Michealle Cunnigham, but the question is from what?
Pandora's dream/permonition
Pandoras dream is set in the slightly dark lit woods, with alot of trees around and people far from out of sight. with in the dream she see's a women in her early 20's running away. this is shown with a POV shot however it is unclear whos POV shot it is. this could be interpreted as michealle running away from Pandora or a KILLER chasing Michealle, this will create a red herring and keep the audience in suspence. this red herring is created when Michealle looks back at the camera several times and on the last one when she is on the floor pleading for a her life as the camera comes closer. with in these shot we see blood and scars around Michealles body which connotes she is in danger and had been abused. the dream/ permonition ends with this pov shot where she is on the flor and the killer about to
Getting ready to go out
hufffing and puffing Pandora wakes up from her 'nightmare' with a shock, she take a few seconds to calms her slef down then goes to the bathroom washes her face, brushes her teeth, goes back into the bedroom looks at the time gets dressed then leaves the house on her way to cafe nero to have breakfast.
on the way to cafe nero
(Pandora lives alone and is a very independent girl but doesent no how to cook, so she relies on takeaways and cafe for breakfast lunch and dinner.)
on her way there she sees the girl from her dream and to show this we will use eye line match but when this happens Pandora does not think much of it and continues with her day to day routine.
in cafe nero
The setting is set with an establishing shot here, as this is one of the places where the opening sequence will finish. a long shot of her showing Pandora walking in to the cafe with over the shoulder shots of her ordering her food. tracking shot of her walking downstairs ans sitting down. Pandora takes out a newspaper from her bad and starts reading. she then reaches for her coffe...
2nd permonition
which takes us straight into her second permonition of the day. this permontition isnt as serious as the first one but it helps Pandora realise the dream that she had before wasnt a dream but a permontion of the future. in this permonition she sees her coffee spilling which even though seems insignificant it makes Pandora aware and confused.
permonition coming to life realisation of permonition
Pandora comes out of her permontion huffing and puffing this is were she spots the same girl from her dream and at the same time the second permontion take motion and becomes real. which automtically makes Pandora realise she has this supernatural power to see the future. The opening sequence end by having little clips showing the 1st permonition, then a short clip on Pandora looking at the girl in cafe and then another shoty of the girl in the cafe.
