In film, the pre-production process requires a plan in order to organize and carry out the filming process. This is where the Save The Cat Beat Sheet comes in play. This Beat Sheet is used as a sort of planning sheet to know when and where to say and do certain things, like a script, but less detailed. This sheet is used in every bit of the film including the introduction to plan out when and where to execute certain scenes. The introduction on a beat sheet is divided into multiple sections including Opening Image, Set-up, and Theme Stated. In this blog, I will be discussing the Opening Image.
The opening image is the first thing that the audience sees after the title of the film (if the title is shown before anything else). In the first draft of our film opening, the opening image shows the two girls having a conversation about a party the night before. This does not have much meaning as my teammates did not take roles very seriously and made up the film opening as they went.
