Similar style film/opening inspiration

To get ideas for our own opening sequence we watched other films of similar genres to get an idea of the way the opening is done. As our film is a Rom-Com we looked for a successful and well known Rom-Com and we came to the decision of "4 weddings and a funeral". In the opening of "4 weddings and a funeral" you see each character getting ready in their own little segment. This is because it establishes each character which is important  because it is vital that the audience knows who the characters are as Rom-Coms are usually very intimate/personal films and it helps if the audience can relate and feel as if they know the characters. We decided to use this in our opening sequence as we felt this would be an effective way of showing who the characters in our film are and it also is used in other Rom-Coms so it makes our opening stick to the conventions romantic comedies.
