- Music and sound FX to build tension and give an indication of the mood/tone. Adds to the atmosphere and plot and maybe give away hints from the film for example the music may rise in dynamics when something scary is going to happen.
- Editing, including montage and fast pace. Fast pace increases the tension in the sequence. Montage also increases the tension and increases the pace of editing.
- Camera angles for example extreme close ups to express the suspense. extreme close ups add mystery to a film for example in the film "Seven" close ups were used to engage the audience and make them want to continue watching.
- Establishing genre of the film to identify the suitable mise en scene.
- Introduction of the characters and teasers to make the audience want to continue watching. Identifying the genre is key if you want to create a suitable atmosphere and theme for the opening sequence.
