My first attempt on After Effects, I found quite enjoyable and inspiring as it could potentially help my film significantly. However, as I am new to the facility it mat take me some time to adapt to the way it functions.

Audience Profile
When analysing my audience I will be using the concept of 'C.R.A.I.G.S', to assist me.
Class - My target audience will be in class C1 (lower middle class) and B (middle class). As this shows that they are skilled and are reasonably intelligent, this is often needed when watching thrillers in order to follow the story properly and understand any complexed vocabulary used within the production.
Race - Although, my audience does not have very specific audience, is there is no cultural theme, I believe that the production will be aimed mainly at those of White ethnicity and black ethnicity, as these are the two ethnicities belonged to the characters' in the production.
Age - The age group in which my film will be mainly aimed at is 18-38, as these ages are likely to have a lot of experience and a decent level of education in order to fully appreciate my film.
Interests - My audience will be mainly interested in watching conventional thrillers, visiting the cinema and working.
Gender - My audience could be both male and female, however, as it is very stereotypical that makes are a lot more attracted to violence and anticipation, as these elements are quite key in my film I believe more males will be targeted than females. Also the cast used in the film is majority male populated and social conventions demonstrate that this will appeal males.
Sexuality - Although, my target audience is quite broad, I believe that the target audience will be heterosexual, due to its content, however it is possible that a small minority of homosexual will be attracted to the film also.

Designing a synopsis for the film
As the genre of my film opening sequence will be a thriller, I am obligated to include the many codes and conventions associated with this genre.
Synopsis
A male character investigates a case of a young girl being kidnapped, this leads to sacrifices and risks being taken. Everybody knows when and how she was taken but nobody knows where or why. Detective A. Smith puts his blood, sweat and tears into cracking the case, not only for the cause of justice but through him having his own personal bond with the young girl.
Deals and dangerous trading result in the fortunate return of the young girl but with a unusual twist. After being tortured, abused and kept away from her loved ones for which felt like a life time. She was too frightened to even explain, let alone describe her experience.
Will contain a range of different shots, such as XCU, long shots, match on action, shot, reverse shot and low angle shots.

Choosing the genre for my title sequence
My group and I have decided to do a thriller genre
for a title sequence, this is due to us be very familiar with the codes and and
conventions of this type of genre. This will then allow us to create a good title sequence, acceding our potential.
This title sequence portrays some of the many codes and conventions used in thriller films. This includes very low key lighting, which creates a sense of uncomfortableness and gloom. This also allows the producers to show the character/s without revealing their identity, as their features can not be seen due to the dark lighting. Also, the use of very quick pace shots and editing, builds up momentum and aids to keep the audiences attention. A convention which is frequently used in thrillers is making relevance to the title in what is shown, this is shown here as the term tattoo is synonymous with ink, and ink is shown throughout the sequence.
The music can be seen as quite disturbing and unclear, this could connote that the plot of the film is not straight forwarded or contains an unusual twist, another convention used in this particular genre. Furthermore, the appearance of the characters could connote sadness and danger, due to them being presented as uncomfortable, a denotation.
