Reseach: How can a film opening attract an audience?

Generally, I think that the mis-en-scene is the most important part in order to grab the full attention of the audience as it sets the arrangement of scenery and stage properties in a play. This makes the audience feel like they have some authority over the film as they're comfortable with whats taken place. For example, an audience who generally is fascinated by horror/thriller films, will be entertained by props such as knives or blood in an opening sequence. 

The mis en scene includes the sound, props, location and scenery. All of these things can help intrigue the audience. For example if  using great sound effects, its more likely that the film is more enjoyable and realistic to watch.



In my opinion establishing shot are very important as it is used to keep the audience entertained throughout the corse of the movie and to be able to catch the audience attention at the first chance given to them. Establishing shots are used at the beginning of films in order to show the audience the basic context around the film. However you have to include factors that will grab and shock your audience to keep them engaged such as special effects.This gives the audience a basic understanding and contextual information which can help them get the most understanding from when the film begins.

An establishing shot is usually the first shot of a new scene, designed to show the audience where the action is taking place. It is usually a very wide shot or extreme wide shot.

Many film producers cherish the fact that the establishing shot is one of the most important parts in the opening of the film. This is because it is the first thing the audience is empowered by. Furthermore,this shows that if you have a powerful establishing shot, its more likely that you will create a  powerful film.
