The document provides initial planning ideas for the opening of a mystery/crime film. It suggests very dim lighting to set a dark and suspenseful tone. The opening credits should be fast-paced and utilize flashing text and dark colors like red and black. Inspiration is drawn from the credits of films like Se7en that are excellent at creating suspense. The setting would be a dark and unknown location with dark colored props and costumes to match. Camera shots would start close and get more extreme to highlight clues left by an antagonist seen only in shadows. Non-diegetic music would accompany the credits.
