Synopsis of Film Introduction ( UPDATED)

The film starts by fading from black and the first thing visible is a person arriving at the location on a motorcycle, you can't see the persons face, an intriguing aspect as the character remains unknown. The camera then proceeds to film the character coming to halt and subsequently removing his helmet, however his face is still not revealed to further increase the growing tension of the opening.

Once the character his removed his helmet, the camera then follows him as he approaches the garage door, in conjunction with this, the underlying music continues to build up slowly to enhance the tension within the scene by slowly gaining pace to increase the suspense. A close up of the character reaching the handle and then opening the garage is shown. After this shot, there is an extreme close up of the characters eyes to show how he is looking around the area to ensure he hasn't been followed or to see if anything in the garage is of interest.

The character then reaches for an envelope which contains blueprints of a building. The character subsequently grabs a pen and circles the area of interest, which fuels speculation from the audience as to what's going on at the precise point in the sequence.

After this close up, the camera focuses on a laptop on a table, and the character comes into the shot rather than the camera following the character, this is to emphasise the importance of the laptop. The character then sits down at the table and opens the laptop up, and reveals a message on the screen stating that a download is complete, the characters face still isn't visible so the identity of the character or his motives remain untold, which keeps the audience intrigued and wanting to continue watching.

Then the character looks around the garage and finds a large tool and lifts it up to test its weight. Once again, the characters face remains hidden to conceal his identity throughout the sequence. After putting the object down, the character subsequently walks towards the garage exit, while remaining  very close to the camera to portray the mood in the scene.

The character then pens the garage, followed by the camera he then puts on his helmet, starts his motorcycle, then proceeds to ride away, the sequence ends at this point.
