American Horror Story

For inspiraation for our thriller we looked at a lot of things but what really caught our eye was 'american horror Story', and most importantly the opening title sequence of series one.

They added flickering and disturbing music along with a slideshow of creepy images of the past and hints to what is to follow in the storyline. There is also a sense of being watched in the opening as the camera moves and so you get a feeling that there is someone controlling the camera. We really liked this flickering effect, and it inspired us to try and create a similar atmosphere using the same technique.
