Treatment 2:

My opening will start with a Low running camera moving through a field, pushing away the long grass as it moves through. Camera tilts up in a long sweeping movement as i want everything to be slow and over exaggerated, The camera is now giving a full establishing shot of the field, Then, from the corner of the camera the young woman who is running moves into the shot, The woman is running in her full dinner outfit she gets watchers wondering why she is running and why she is wearing that clothing in this surrounding. The music is very slow and misplaced the beat is half the pace of the runner. The camera will follow the woman through the field creating a "home" screen for the Opening, This will then be corrupted by the titles and credits but also the very quick flashes of her male counterpart, show the other side of this failed date, he is sitting at the train station waiting for his train though it comes and he does not get it, this shows that he is maybe not finished, angry with the current situation or he wants another chance, But every time it is cut to this is always reverts back to the "running" scene, to create familiar ground. To create good effects i would like to use filters to enhance the suns rays, to make the "running" scene seem more effective, bright and just, in all to give a positive atmosphere whereas the "male" scene will be made really dark to create as complete contrast and to give a darker, sinister effect, to signify rejection and hatred. I would also like to include handheld camera footage which is purposely mad to be shaky and amateurish. Most of the shots for the "running scene" will be done from the front of the character or from the side this means that they will all be big establishing shot. The "male" scene will be shot from the other side of the tracks so that when the train comes it can sweep past him also it means that it dismisses the need of good acting of curtain people because no close ups will be used. I think this opening should be ended abruptly almost cut and then the film start. :)
