          We have been given the opportunity to pick what we do for our End of Course exam. It is between a magazine cover and feature article or a movie opener. For me, the decision was pretty easy, but I will get into that later. Last week we got a couple of days to play around in the software we would be using for each of these projects ( Adobe In-design and Adobe Premiere Pro ).        We started the week of testing with Adobe Premiere Pro, I instantly knew what I was doing because I have experience with Premiere Pro. It felt like I was ahead of the program almost, since quarantine started I have been playing with editing software and I fell in love with two programs and one was Premiere Pro.        In design on the other hand, I struggled.

      Opening scenes have a major first impression on all movies. A good opening scene can either make or break the movie.                                                                                                                                                                                     For example, Scream's opening scene of the lady talking to scream over the phone drew you into the movie in a heartbeat you knew as soon a...
