opening sequence

i dont know if we would be able to do it but we can get ideas from it and change it.

the sequence starts with a homeless person sitting on the london millenium bridge and the camera is facing him with him in the centre of the shot. the shot is faster than real life so the people walking past are going fast and its getting darker quicker to give the impression that he has been sitting there for hours. through the whole time the homeless person is in the same place and while this is happening, the credits come up on the screen and short flashbacks of when he was happy and with other people are shown for about 4 seconds for each character. the main characters are in these and the shot freezes on them and their name comes up. this would happen about 5 times to show the main characters and it would keep going back to the bridge in fast motion during the flashbacks. when it is dark and the shot is nearly over, the camera gets closer to the homeless man and he looks up into the camera while his name comes up because he is the main character. it then fades into a shot of the begining of the film and the title comes up on the screen. i thought of one title being 'forgetting faces' but we can change it
