The opening sequence that is for Taxi driver which is directed by Martin Scorsese and made in 1976. The opening sequence was very ambiguous as you don't see much just a mans eyes and it looks like he is watching people from his car. The opening sequence of the film brings you into the thriller genre quite well because it looks very ambiguous which makes you want to know is going to happen further on in the film.

• started off on dan's camera and filmed pans and tracking shots
• dan's camera ran out of charge so we used tom's 'camera'
