I decided to start all over again because i wasn't quite pleased with old film ideas i came up with and the feedback from friends and family was not good; some of them found it cheesy. So i have decided to switch it up i have done a lot of research on short opening sequence and i'm planning to stick with this one.
STORYLINE
The Africain doll discover she's brought and taken into another country and now she's able to do things that she's not able to do
My opening sequence will start with an extreme close up of a doll then slowly zooming out crossing cutting into the doll having a life, the doll will realize that she is able breathe and communicate with others and the camera follows her to her finding her creator . She tries to get use to her new self but she's fails and the only way for her to go back to normal is going back to her natural habitat "The forest". With an establishing shot of the forest and a tracking shot of the character walking slowly toward her "Supposed God" she chants and chants in different language which will be translated in English on the screen. The razor edit will be used for the character to have a flashback of her been trapped in a box to signify how she feels then a 180 camera angle to ensure the narrative continuity.The character visits that same spot at the forest everyday on until her "supposed God" changes her back to the "Afrcain doll". Whilst coming back from the forest she discovers a place were she can see dogs/foxes and she begins to cry (close shot) stupidly and she begins to chant with the dogs and from there she falls asleep.
Cross cutting into another scene of the character walking out of the house making her way to the forest this will be her final day and if she doesn't change back she will have to be a human forever.
