Crime Caper Research
We have chosen the genre of a crime caper for our opening sequence. We researched the genre so we could meet the conventions of it and make the sequence more effective.
"The caper story is a sub genre of Crime fiction. The typical caper story involves one or more crimes (especially thefts, swindles, or occasionally kidnappings) perpetrated by the main characters in full view of the reader. The actions of police or detectives attempting to prevent or solve the crimes may also be chronicled, but are not the main focus of the story."

Analysis of Real Title Sequence
Wimbledon
The title sequence of Wimbledon shows many typical features of a film opening scene, these include titles and the music corresponding to the moving images even though you cannot what is making the noise, this is often made out to be key to a decent opening sequence it also introduces the establishing shot which gives an insight into the rest of he film like in this film it starts with a tennis match crowd and the film is about tennis a
ll films do this in there opening sequence to make everything make sense.
The titles of most films tell you who made the film and who acts in the film the are usually portrayed in a interesting way
