This is our first inital idea

The opening scene of Star Wars opens with silence and a plain black background and a text fades in to the middle of the screen telling us about a setting saying "Along time ago in a galaxy far, far away" this tells us about the setting of the film without showing us anything of the setting. The texts then fades out and the diegetic sound starts to play and the title of the film scrolls up from the bottom and it gives you the brief outline of what has happened and what is about to happen.

The diegetic sound then fades and the titles scroll away. This is when the setting is then established and the two main characters appear.
