Film inspirations

Before we began making our opening title sequence we had a look at some of the films that inspire us and give us ideas to use. For me one of the films I looked at was the Last Samurai. This is one of the films we got some of our character portrayal ideas from. The film is about an American military advisor embracing the samurai culture he was sent to destroy. The film shows how this character develops from a alcoholic loser who is just scraping by in life to a honorable hero. Our films plotline we developed from brainstorming ideas that we had generally got from old horror films such as Halloween or Silence of the lambs.
