Film Opening Conventions

"The most important thing that the opening of a film must accomplish is to establish a tone so that the audience fall into the same mood as the film they are watching." What Culture.com

What Culture- The Importance of Film Openings
Whilst furthering my research on film openings I came across this article. It was great to read & looked into film openings as a whole then focused on openings specific to different film genre's.
This show's how there are conventions for film openings as a whole, however there are many ways which different genre's use contrasting methods to hook there audience in the opening.

I think it's good to use reviews, articles and online opinions to research as even if the information is not completely reliable, is more of an opinion it is interesting to read & you learn different things than just facts or text book facts.
