For the script in our film opening we incorporated a voice over to give the project a more eerie feel. We trick the audience into thinking that Natalia is there for Finn but in reality she is doing everything for Alexa and is actually plotting against him. My team members and I worked together into created the different shots so I could create a script that fit with the movie. Although the dialogue is not as prominent and the actions that take place, the voice-over creates an ominous vibe throughout the video.
