Main Task: Basic Plot

To create an opening title sequence for a murder mystery film, we first needed to come up with a basic plot for the film, to generate images and themes for the title sequence.

As we are doing the title sequence for a murder mystery film, the plot has to contain the conventions of the genre. The basic plot for our film is going to be a woman gets killed by a mass murderer. This woman is the latest in a line of people that the murderer has killed in odd ways. The police investigate the murder, with lots of twists in the plot, before eventually catching the killer in the films climax.

The film would be similar to the 2009 version of the film, Sherlock Holmes. Also, it would be similar to the film, Se7en.
