Individual Evaluation Of 6 Minute Challenge

Our location and prop for our 6 minute challenge did seem rather outlandish because it was difficult to combine the two together for the opening title sequence. We randomly chose a hospital as our location and a bicycle as our prop. The task seemed challenging at first but we came to the conclusion that our title sequence should utilise the genre of horror/comedy. The name of the film was randomly generated and turned out to be a suitable title (Darren Mougey) who was the protagonist of the film. It gradually became easier with the name as we decided that Darren Mougey would be a private investigator who discovers this bicycle in an alleyway which has been rumoured to be treacherous as it usually puts people in hospital. This ultimately gave us the idea to make the film surround this unique idea of a 'possessed bicycle'. Once we confirmed this idea, the task in general was much more easy. We then came up with inputing the location now as we decided that Darren Mougey begins to ride the bicycle and then is put into hospital after crashing. Overall, our location, prop and title made perfect sense and therefore allowed us to create a successful title sequence. 

However, I don't think this opening title sequence would be a suitable choice for our film. This is because - although it was comedy/horror, I presume some of the audience would've laughed. Additionally, I don't think the genre of Horror would be utilised well in a film where an adult decides to ride a kids bicycle ends up in hospital. I doubt the possible chances of striking fear into an audience who watches a man go into hospital due to a crash from riding a kids bicycle.
