Why We Picked Horror For A Genre

As a group we came to the decision that Horror was the best genre for us after brainstorming ideas and watching various movie clips to check out different styles. We knew our main aim was to create a clear obvious opening sequence which linked to the genre chosen, this led us to believe that the genre had many conventions we found to be of interest to us. It would allow us to experiment with sound, graphics, styles and use abstract ideas in order to create an experimental piece. To add to that the genre also interests me personally, so found that making an opening sequence of this kind would be enjoyable.
