Dolls (1987)

 

In the opening of Dolls the first thing we see is a black background with white writing on, which reads, ' Empire pictures presents'. The opening two minutes for Dolls is relatively simple with nothing really happening. When the actors names appear in order of appearance, they have a doll inside one of the letters which sets the narrative and therefore gives us an insight into what the story is going to be about. The actors names and crediting continues from 0:22 until 2:00, which is a massive amount of time. If I am honest, at this point it made me disengage with what was happening as I became bored.

In the opening that I shall create in my team, I will ensure that our opening 2 minutes aren't boring and that the narrative starts as I think that include parts of the narrative captures the audiences attention and makes it more enjoyable.
