Evaluation 6
Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you fell you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?
When i look back on our preliminary task we have now got alot better a filming and keeping the camera still, we have also learnt alot more about the different types of shots and that you should also try and use a range of shots when you are filming even if in the end you don't need them all. In our film i believe we managed to get the different shots accurate and we used a wider range in the film opening than we did in the preliminary task. We also learnt that we should always listen to each others ideas and what they think might look good because sometimes they could be right about somethings. We also learnt how to use Final cut express more and we also learnt how to use imoive by learning two different ways of editing we learnt how to add different affects and also to cut and merge different clips together.
I also learnt more about using the cameras and how to make my shots look better because sometimes i forgot i was filming and we had to start all over again which didn't make my group to happy.
Overall i think me and the group have come very far from the preliminary task and i think we have got alot better at editing and filming and i am very proud of what we was able to achieve from it all.

Who would be the audience for your media product?
When we started to look at what target group to aim the movie at we was going to go with teenagers and their age range is about 12-18 but over time we soon realized that not all of them would want to watch something where they have to sit and work out the plot in their head, another reason was because some people might feel disapponted of they didnt see anything that they shouldnt see or anything fun happening like a party. So these factors help us as a group changed our mind about what target audience would make a more appropriate target audience.
Another factor of why we made this decision was because when we was asking around what film genre would be better they all said thriller and that they would preder to watch this type of film becuase they like the fact that they might get scared.We also told them about the genres that we was thinking about doing and they all said they like they fact of psychological thrillers and the fact that you have to try and figure out what is happening and what is about to happen. With them helping us and giving us feedback it made the choice of picking a genre a lot more easier than choosing as a group.
With Our target audience around use liking the fact that we had listened to them and choose psychological thrillers and with this choice we founf out it is a easy genre to do and also you have a more dramatic effect on people when doing this genre and it has a bigger impact on them. The language and the plot of the story fitted our tagert audiences thoughts and they all said that we made the right decisions and overall it looked like we did a really good job with the final product with the sort of language we used.

What kind of media institution might distribute
your media product and why?
As a group we did alot of reasearch what our film institutions should be we found out that the two film institutions that do the film genre that we chose was paramount pictures and Universal pictures. We done further research on both of these film institutions and with alot of talking about which one was better we went with Paramount Pictures and the reasons behide these were one they have produced more movies with the same sort of story line and genre, and when you first hear the institutions theme our audience will know who it is straight away.
Evaluation 2
How does your media product represent particular social groups?
Our film is targeted at a target group of 15-25 year old people, the reason behide this is because as a group we know what types of films these genre of people like. Another reason why we choose this target group was because we can also represented the social group and what they can go through in their lives, we choose to represent this by having a young girl stalked through a woods we was able to get our audience to relate themselves to what the girl was going through and the effects it was having on her. The main reason why we choose the age group that we did was because we wanted the audience to understand what was happen in the film and being able to understand the hidden meaning that was in the film, if we was going to choose a younger target audience i dont think they would be able to understand what was happen and they might have to watch it more than once to understand the message that is behide the story, also they might not get the full effect of the movie as much as someone older might. A social group that we didnt think about when doing the film was differemt religions and their views the reason behide this was because there was no voilence or secual scenes but as in our group we did have a cultural person in our group we had to think more about what the girl was would be wearing so we thought about the different changes we could make to the young girls costume to suit the religion with the young girl not showing any leg or shoulders.

As you can see from this picture Jess is being prayed on a man that is much larger than her and stronger than her. From the picture you can see that Jess is a young and vulnerable girl because she is walking alone in the woods this indicates to the audience that she is innocent and all alone because she is not surrounding by friends. Many young girls can relate to Jess position because sometimes girls can will fear and fell like someone is watching them when they are on their own and this is a good factor because it makes the girls want to carry on watching the film til they reach the end to find out what happens to the young girl.
Evaluation 1
In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge form and conventions of real media products?
As a group we have followed all the main conventions of a psychological thriller the ways we have done this is by the location that we choose to shot our opening in and the also the setting. Many psychological thrillers are set in the woods that are dead slient or a grave yard the reason behide this is because to the audience this symbolisms death or something bad is going to happen that involes killing or death.
We chose the woods to be the setting for our opening the reason why was because the woods is commonly used in Psychological thrillers and is a main convention that is used quite alot, they use the woods because the woods are mainly always quite and when they are dark suspicious things happen in them like someone being kidnapped or hurt. We have changed the conventions of the thriller because they normally film the woods at night time and we set the scene during the daytime. The reason why us as a group decided to chose the daytime to film was because we wanted to portray to the audience that what time of the day you are in the woods you are never really safe and you should always pay attention to what is happen around you, by us filming the scene during the day it make the attack more unexpected to the audience and they wouldn't see it coming they would of thought it would happen during the night time. For us it made the opeing look more realistic because it makes it look like the young girl is on her way home from school and she is being followed and this situation we all know that it can happen.
What else is good about the woods is what associations go with the woods like the wildlife these adds a more of a effect on the audience because of the weird noises and the strange rustling noise that they make by having these it makes the audience more on the UN-easy side and it builds up the tension in the scene to show the audience something is about to happen, and normally when they start making more noise it indicates to the audience that someone is there watching the person that is in focus to the audience attention. By having these different elements in the film it starts to build the tension up along more if it was just the music playing on its own than the audience would start to get bored and not a scared with what was about to happen.
In many thrillers birds are a animal which is commonly used to build up the person tension and to make them more un-easy the reason why they use them is because they know the sort of effect they have on people. In our opening we used birds noise but during the opening you do not see the birds and where they are hiding by doing this is builds up the suspicion of where these noises are coming from for the audience this is good because it gets them thinking and in psychological thrillers thats what you want the target audience to do. By filming the birds during the day we challenged the convention because when you film in the woods at night you can normally see the bored and normally they make a much higher pitch noise which also adds to the tension and the suspicion to the person out in the woods. The bird that normally come out at night relate to the scenario of thrillers with them praying on the birds that are much weaker than them, as this is they same with people the older person always praying on the young weaker girls that cant fight back.
Another factor of thrillers would be the stepping on branches this makes the person in focus think that they are being followed by someone or something but there is not normally anyone there, this also ups the paranoid of the audience and the victim becuase with there being many trees around them it makes it harder for them to see if someone if actually following them and with the audience not being able to see if someone is hiding it makes them feel un-easy and it build up their feeling of suspicioun and them they start believeing something is actually out their.
This is one of the shots from our film opening in which shows you how we challenged the turned out in the end. Here we have a image of the main girl character who is being stalked by a mysterious character which throughout the opening you don't see their face Here you can see the expression on her face is scared and suspicion that she thinks that someone be hide her and following her through the woods on her way home from school. This shot of her turning round to face the camera shows the audience her expression of being scared and paranoid because she is not for certain that someone is following her through the wood .We also tried to attempted to challenge the make up ideas to a thriller as usually they normally would just paint the person to have a pale white face but us as a group decided to we should have Laura's face white with black eyes and black lips. The reason we wanted to do this was because we wanted to make the character to be this dark character that always hides away and with the eyes and lips being black to represents death and what that characters mood and how it affects people, But in the end this did not succeed because as a group we decided that we wasn't going to be showing the stalkers face as it helps to build up the tension towards the audience and also in the scene and if we was going to show the face we would be giving to much information aways to the audience as we wanted the audience to have it playing on their minds of who the stalker was and what he or she looked like, if we was to give the face away to the audience they would just get bored with the movie and not want to carry on watching it.

Titles,Headings&Subheadings,
As it is getting close to us handing in our film opeing we have to make sure while we are editing our opening we have to include the names below in the opening:
Music by
Sound,picture and institution
Institution presents( ours will be Paramount )
Production company related to the institution
Transitions- for example fading to blsack/white or zooming
Names of the cast
Production designer(s)
Costume designer(s)
Story by
Editor(s)
Produced by
Title of the film
Directed by
These titles are used in most of the films that are out their today but they ranged from film to film. We research what titles are used in the film out their today and we look at films from our genre but we look at genres that are similar to ours and films that in a total different genre, the reason why as a group we research these was because we wanted to find out where would be the best place to place the different titles and also to see how they present them to the audience because when you look at some film genres they make the title and subheading really tiny but not to tiny that you cant see them the reason why they do this is because they want the audience to now that they are there but not to much that it draws there attention away from the film. We also decided not to use the words starring the reason was because many film these days don't use these words and also it doesn't look professional to use them. In our opening the titles that we decide to use was Directed By,Editors, Name of the cast, Music by and so on, we didn't use all the titles that are in the list above but we used most of them

Editing
When we first started editing our film we was doing it in final cut express and as time continued on we was finding it harder and harder to do it so as a group we decide to change it over to movie. Another reason was because we was over hearing how hard it was to add affects and titles as a group we talk about if it would be better for us to change over and everyone agree the main reason why we all agreed was because of timing, timing was a big deal to us because we didn't want to be doing the film at the last minute. Another thing that we was worried about was the fact was we going to be able to produce the type of opening that we wanted on final cut express, and with the effects on imovie being easier to work with, and them effects being the effects that we wanted. When we was going to convert it over we was worried about many things like ' what if it doesn't convert over' ' What if we loose the changes we have made when we are converting it over' we had many worries about converting it over so to make sure that we didn't loose any of the progress that we had made we saved it on two of the groups memory sticks just in case but in the end we done it and now we have ended up with a really good opening.
By using imovie was able to get the editing done alot quicker and also it was much easier for us to edit. We all tried editing the opening and by doing this in my point of view made the opeing much better than if only one person had done it , the reason why i think this is because we all had a range of ideas of what we thought it should be like and when we put them all together it seemed to work out.
In imovie we had a wider range of different affects that we could add into our opening for instance at the beginning of the film we have a girl having flashbacks of when she was running through the woods away from the person why was chasing her,for us to make this look more affective we added a flashback effect and when we played it back it really did look like a flashback but we made a few changes by changing the contrast to a much brighter setting and also we changed the colours around and made it much duler. When we was going through all the footage that we had shot we had to decide what we wanted to keep and what we wanted to get rid of, over the weeks when we was editing we keeped changeing the footage that we was going to use we keeped having different ideas of what we need to use and what would look godd next to each other.
If we didnt changed our movie over to imovie i dont think our opening world of came out the way that we wanting to but in the end i think overall we have produced a really good opening and that we should all be proud of.

Voice over
To go along with our music box we wanted to do a voice over to add another element to the opening, today we was able to record a voice over with our head of year Mr Miles and Laura, the reason why we choose our head of year was one because we wanted a really manly voice to be interviewing the best friend but also because we really didn't know what they ask in police interviews we asked him because before he was our head of year he was a police officer so he knew what to ask Laura. This was because it made the interview sound more believable to the audience. What was also good about this voice over was because you couldn't see the man voices and it was very deep it added a sense of suspicion to the audience if we would of had a women police officer doing the voice over it it would not of seemed as tensed. In the end we decide that we wasnt going to us the voice over the reason behide this was becuase it we had put it in it would of added more noise to the opening and the opening already had alot going on and also when you look at thrillers that are on the market already the begin is always slienced to build up the suspence. If we had put the voice over in the opening would not of had a inpact on our target audience.
Here is a clip of our voice over.

Music
For the last couple of weeks we have been deciding on what type of music we should use and how should it sound. At the beginning we thought about using the introduction of little mix DNA we like how the music box gave a sense of something bad is going to happen and by using a music box sound it builds up the audiences sense of fear and this is what we wanted as a group for the audience to experience. The reason why we wanted this type of music was because when you look at genre and listen to the type of music that is used they use music that is going to give the audience a sense of fear and get them think about what is going to happen next, we wanted our audience to feel like that and get them trying to figure out what is happen in the opening. After we got told that we wasn't aloud to use this song the reason be hide this was because it would be classed as copyright and we don't want that to happen. We started to the Internet and we found just a music box sound that we decide that we was going to use for the opening just to be played in the background, after a couple of weeks playing around with garage band we came up with a great Melody that suited are genre well. When we was talking about if we wanted to add some other sort of music we decide that it would be better if had a voice over playing in the background the reason why we decide this would be a better option was because we wanted to start to build the audiences tension and get them trying to figure

Costume ideas
Here i have researched different costumes that the different characters could wear in are film opening.
For the Stalker we thought that they could wear all black to give the audience a sense of fear towards the character and also with the make-up that we have done it will also help with make the character seem more scarier to the audience.Black was chosen because its a very morbid colour that gives the audience a sense of mystery as it symbolises suspicion also it screams danger because when you look at our film genre the bad person nearly always were black the reason be hide this is because they want the audience to feel that sense of danger and fear towards that character and that's what we want our audience to feel,We have looked at a range of different clothes and we decide to make Laura who is playing the stalker wear just a plain black top with a hoodie over the top, the reason why we chose a Hoodie was because we thought that when we were filming we could shoot a over the shoulder shot but just have the back of Laura's head just showing to the camera. The other reason why we choose to put the stalker in black was because it portrays his personalty and also the mood we want that scenes to be dark and the feeling of not being safe.
For the young girl we wanted her clothes to be simply and to reflect her mood and personalty, with her mood fell unsafe we wanted her clothes to reflect her feeling self conscious and vulnerable to the stalker. So with this we decide on just a plain pair of jeans and then a jacket to cover her up and because it was winter also she had on a scarf on. We choose her clothes to be mutual colour becuase we didnt want her to stand out and it also will portry the way she feels towards the Stalker she doesnt want to draw attention to herself and give him a reason to follow her.

Storyboard
Here is are video for are storyboard we have decide that are film opening is going to be about a Young girl that has died and many of her friends think that she has killed herself but throughout the duration of the film you see the real truth about what happen. We also decide to have a creepy stalker in are film but we decide that it would be better if we didn't see the face the reason be hide this was because we wanted to create a sense on unease and fear for the audience to experience.
Laura was the person who done some of the drawings for the storyboard to tell the story. After filming this storyboard we notice since we have been filming for the real thing we have changed some of our ideas so we had to add some extra drawings into it to tell you the parts that we have added in and changed. The main reason why we had to changed some of our ideas was one because of the weather turning and also that we thought that some of the ideas that we were having we couldn't do because we didn't have the resources available to us to use, when we was adding in ideas we had to think about making them longer because some of the original ideas were really short and if we had of keeped them they wouldn't make up the 2 minutes that we need for our opening. One of the scenes that we added in was the girl victum walking throught the woods being watched by the other main character that has been watching her.
Type of Shoots that we are going to try and have in are film opening
Here are some of the type of shots that we are going to try and have in are film opening and also a little about each of the type of shots.
Close up- This is where the character/actor is being filmed fills the frame, this is often used to show the emotion felt by the actor while being filmed. For example if the character had just done something of significance and was showing the right emotion this shot can be used to emphasise the emotion that the individual is feeling in that moment. we are going to try and use this when we are looking at the main character
Medium shot - This shot consists of half of the subjects body , with their costume and face still visible for the audience to see. This can be used to show the surroundings of the individual but also the emotions there are feeling at the same time. It is effectively used in horror films especially when creating tension of somebody coming up behind the subject. We are going to try and us this when we are filming the police officer and the best friend talking.
Dutch Tilt - This shot used by which subject or object that is being filmed is tilted to an angle. This shot is often used in mostly horror films to represent confusion and if someone is disorientated . A tilted shot such as a dutch tilt often connotates confusion or panic that the subject is feeling. We are going to try and use this when we are filming the main character running through the woods.
An Extreme Close Up - This is used in horror films to emphasise something, for example if the close up was of the character hands and the actions they were doing with them, then that would be emphasising the actions that the individual was about to do with there hands that has a important of relevance to what is about to happen.Say they were going to do a close up of the individuals hands with them holding something like a gun or a knife then that would be highlighting that something bad was going to happen to the person holding the knife or gun or something bad is going to happen involving the knife. We are to use this shot when we are looking at the main girl character and her reactions are.
The reason why we wanted to have these range of shoots in the opening was because we wanted to show a range of different skills in producing these shots and also we wanted the audience to feel like they was in the movie. By using shots like the extreme close up it lets the audience to see the fear in the main persons eyes and you also wonder what the are looking at.

Make up video
When it got closer to the time that we was going to start filming are opening we started to think about what the main character should look like and also what should we make them look like. So first we had to start to think about who we was going to do the make up on and luckily Laura decide she would do it for us, before we started painting on her face we had to come up with a basic idea after talking about it for a while we came up with she should have a pale face and really dark eyes, so when we are shooting in a dark place all you can see is her face. So then Me, Jessica and Laura had to walk up to c block and have a look at what face paints the school had to offer, we had to also think about what face paints would look better for our genre in the end we choose white and black face paint. We first started to apply a layer of white face paint all over Laura's face by doing this it gave Laura a very pale complexion that made her look more dark and scary she sort of looked like the grudge.While i was doing this i sort of rip Laura's nose stud out she didn't seem too happy about that (Sorry Laura)
After i had apply the white make- up to her face we Jessica started on Laura's eyes, in the corner of the eyes Jess made them darker and got lighter as she done the rest of her eye, after we had done that she started layering the eyes with some black and grey eye shadow the reason why we did this was because we wanted to give the eyes a more softer look to them but still make them look scary on camera. We also painted her lip with the black face paint to make the look complete. Overall we done this make up two times and when we done it the second time it so much better and looked better on camera also laura brought in some black clothes which made the costume look really good and creepy which will make are audience sitting on the edges of their seats.

Filming around school
When we was thinking about the types of shoots we wanted to use, we decide that we was going to go round school and try out a range of different shots. We decide to flim in a range of spots the spots we choose were the orchard, under S block stairs, the LRC. The reason why we choose to to shoot in these areas was because we wanted somewhere dark and spooky and also the size of the area and the range of lighting we had.
The first place that we choose to film in was the orchard. The reason why we choose to shoot here was because of the range of lighting - we felt it was important to vary the lighting depending on the mood and character we were focusing on at the time. In the end we filmed part in the morning and then some later on in the afternoon. By doing this we got some really effective shots - some parts of the orchard was really dark which added a dark and gloomy effect that made our character appear more threatning. The reason why we wanted some places to be really dark was because we wanted it to portray our stalker as a character who lives in the dark and doesn't want to be seen ever. It wasnt just the lighting that had a great effect it was also the scenery that was around us, with the weather not being so good the day before we started to film the ground was all muddy but that didnt matter to us because this was great for the footstep effect that we wanted to try out to see if it added something different to the shots, what also was really great was that some of the trees hung low over each other which also added a dark effect. We made laura who was playing the stalker stand round the tree and in the shadows of the trees by doing this is made her seem more dark and creepy. Whilst we was walking around the orchard we found a wind chime that was hung from one of the trees we thought that it gave the whole area a creepy feel like someone was watching us we started to think about it filmed at night how that would add a creep and spooky sound to the film and how that would made the audience sitting on the edge of their seats.
The second location that we decide to film in was under S block stairs the reaosn behide this was because of the lighting and also there was some table there and we had laura hide behide under them the reason why we made her to do this was becuase we wanted laura character come across as this character that lingers in the shadows not wanting to be seen.The main thing that was really great about having these tables in the way was the different angles that we could shoot from, when laura was under the table we decide to get two cameras and her crawl along the floor this gave us a great range of shoots. When thinking about what other shots we could use to give us a wider range of shoots we flimed laura from above and them different angles around her.

Fonts
After choosing are final name i decide to look at a range of different fonts that might suit are genre and make the name look more interesting that it already is,Above i have chosen five different styles of fonts that i think that would suit are film genre well. When i was searching for different style of fonts i tryed to go for a range of different looking ones the reason why i did this was because i wanted the my target audience who was going to be giving me feedback not to look at the fonts and thinking that they all look the same. When i asked people what they thought about the first font that thought it looked more like a font that should be used for horror films and not a psychological thrillers, i didn't want to use a font that didn't suit my genre so in the end i decide not to use it. When people were look and the final three the one that most stood out to them was the last one the reason i think this is because it looks different from the other fonts and its more eye catching for the audience to look at another reason could be because it looks mysterious like someone has just wrote it on a surface.The one that i think that suits our genre better is number four, the name of this font is called Crime Times Six the reason why i think it is the best font that fits is because of the style of font and how it looks like someone has scratched it onto the wall.When i asked around what people thought of this font they all said that it is a very eye catching font and also it makes you wonder what the film is going to be about because of the way the font looks it makes people start to think about the film in more detail, overall i think that this font had a really good impact on our target audience and also it it looks like a it belongs in our genre.

Title ideas
Title idea
Today we all decide that we should come up with a name for our film. We was looking for something that would make the audience interested in the film and also we wanted something that was going to help make the film more thrilling and make the audience on the edge of their seat, we didn't want a title that doesn't fit in with are genre and also if the film title didn't fit with the genre the audience wouldn't want to watch it.
A bad example of a film name would be the ' The revenge of the white rabbit' this is not a good film title for the type of genre that we are doing. The reason why we are researching into the name is because we want the title to have relevance to the genre we are doing.
When we were thinking about the title for our film we had to think about the title because it is the first thing that the audience will see and we want them to be draw into the movie right at the beginning.
As a group we decide on four different names for the title, the four names that we came up with was:
1.Unhinged
2.Forget me not
3.Forgotten
4. I do believe
When we was going over each of the different names we thought that 'I do Believe' sounded more like a children's Disney movie rather a title for a psychological thriller. When i asked people what they thought of this title they thought it was childish and would put them off watching the movie, so in the end we thought it would be better if we eliminated that one from the list. We also decide to remove Forget me not of the list the reason be-hide why we done this was because we thought it sounded more than a chick-flick rather than a thriller, and when we was asking around what people thought of this title the feedback that they gave us was it sounded more like a rom-com or a child's cartoon movie.
The final two titles left was Unhinged and Forgotten these two title where the ones that fitted are film genre the best. Both of these names are really easy to remember its quick and catchy the reason why we wanted a short and catchy title because it is easier for the audience to remember, if we was to chose a longer title the audience woundlt have remember as well as the other short names and it makes the film sound interesting. Having the one word title made it fit are genre more because many psychological thrillers have short sharp titles the reason be hide this is because they want their audience to be intrigue
When asking around what title was better for our film we needed to ask the people that are in are target audience to use the feedback the reason why was because they are the people that we are aiming are film at, the questions we ask them was what they thoughts were about the names and also which one was better we ask a range of people ageing from 16-18 we asked more girls than boys the reason why we ask more girls was because they were much more straight with there answer, sadly we didn't get a equal amount of boys and girls if we had gotton more boys i think are outcome would of been more different i think we would had a range of different thoughts on what title we should have used some of the opinions would have been mature and immature.
In the end Unhinged got the most votes the reason why we think that it got the most votes was because Unhinged is more eye catching for the audience to look at and also it make you wonder what the film is actually about. By using this title it makes the audience become more intrigue. With the word Unhinged it means lie a door hanging on the wall or unstable by using this title it also relates with are main character Taylor with her being unstable about some following her and everyone thinking she has gone mad, the idea of the word Unhinged being used at the title we want people to try and relate it to the main character and make the links. The feedback that we got from are questionnaire was unhinged was different from the other names and that it made them more interested to find out what the film was going to be about.
Overall Unhinged was my favourite title because i like the way it made me think about what the film was going to be about and also it got me thinking about what it reference it had to the plot of the story.

Film Institutions
Here are to of the film institutions that i have looked at with my group. The first one we looked at was paramount pictures the reason that we look at these was because we thought these would be institution that specialise in the genre that we have chosen to do. The second one that we looked at was Universal pictures the reason that we looked at these was because we also thought they also was a institution that made thriller films.
Paramount Pictures
The paramount picture corporation is a corporation that specilies in film and television production and they have been doing this since 1912. Paramount pictures is the fourth oldest studios coming just be hide the likes of Universal studios and Gaumount pictures but paramount are still running in today's film industry, some people may say that paramount pictures is one of the best existing studios that is out there. Paramount are also the last large film studio that is still located in Hollywood, where ever you look paramount is still posted as on of the largest movie studios that are out there these days. Paramount Pictures have alot of great film behide their belt from the likes of THOR, Rango, Transformers, Footlose, Justin Bieber Never say Never and the most famous film titanic. But they have also help to produce films such as forrest gump and charrlottes web.
Universal Pictures
Universal Pictures is a film studio which is located in America, it is part of six of the largest movie studios in the world along with paramount pictures. Most people commonly know universal for the fact that it is one of the longest running motion pictures studios that is not located anywhere near Hollywood. Universal was founded around the same time that Paramount was in the 1912. Universal Pictures have created some great films that a range of films that everyone can enjoy from the likes of Fast and Furious, Bridesmaids, the mummy and everyones favourite E.T and they have created many more.
Our group decision
In the end as a group we decided to chose Paramount pictures as a Film institution to use a the beginning of are film opening. The reason that we have chosen Paramount was becuase we thought that these were better becuase they did more films that go with the genre that we have choson and also we was think of how the audience would act when they heard the beginning of the film so we thought that more people would know the Paramount pictures theme tune straight away and it would take them more time to figure out the Universal pictures theme tune.
