After we got a much a shorter opening sequence we found that we had read the brief incorrectly and needed to shorten our sequence further, to under 2 mins. This firstly seemed like it would be a long process to do however it turned out that it was a lot easier than expected, and the film was better for it. It gave the sequence a more snappy and interesting feel. Despite the fact of worrying about having to shorten the film and losing some of the story line, this fear proved to be unfounded as it improved the film more so. Although we shortened it to the necessarily length after looking at the footage we realised the 180 degree rule was broken because of the amount of editing was needed. This was due to the fact that we were cutting out shots from the same scene, which mistakenly mixed the flow of the sequence.
