Second idea: A middle aged man, around 30-35, he seems like an ordinary middle aged man. Walks in what appears to be a family home, and even when he enters and you get shots of all the different rooms it seems like the average every day family home. Many family photos hanging on walls and scattered around the room, even refrigerator magnets. You get a quick glimpse of toys in the corner of what appears to be the living room, suggesting there are children present in this home. But there is only one problem with this"ordinary" house, it is covered in dust and spider webs, something you would not expect to see in a ordinary family home, well you would expect to see a little, but defiantly not this much. Then a shot to the man standing in the hall way, motionless, with a bag around his shoulder that slowly falls down his arm and on to the floor making a loud thud. Made louder than usual as the house is so quiet, a POV shot to show what he is looking at reveals an old dusty picture of five people, looks to be like his family or people that are close to him. A zoomed in shot of his eye that slowly zooms out, to reveal a tear secreting from his eye, the camera follows this tear all the way down the bottom of this face till it drops off and hits the floor. Then a flash back, the man but when he was younger, around 18/19. Walking down the road back to his house, looking down with every step, not with much confidence, the camera then looks up suddenly to see what appears to be police outside his house, about 4 police cars and an ambulance. He then runs to the police line surrounding his house, the police stops him but he frantically explains he lives there, then a quick shot to his front door, with five body bags.. the boy then drops to the floor on his knees,and puts his face in his hands. End with a still shot of the man back in the hallway.

Initial Ideas for two minute opening of movie..
So when i first started to tackle this, i started to watch all the movie intro's i had in the house, and so far one's that seem possible considering lack of funding location and limited resources, i am strongly considering doing a feel good comedy. But i want to introduce it differently than normal comedies, im thinking having 3/4/5 boys or girls in there young age, around 10-14 (not totally sure yet) and have them playing around in different locations, such as a park, back gardening making a tree house, playing games all these sorts of things. Basically to show how a good and strong friendship these characters have, i may also narrate over the top introducing the key characters. For a song i would like some gentle guitar playing, kind of folk music, maybe Ooh La La- The Faces, but maybe adapted in different ways, so a longer intro on the guitar. Then to have a wide shot of a cemetery, and slowly move round to a group huddled round a grave, it slowly zooms in, then shoots straight to a picture of one of the children when he/she was younger, but also all loads of other pictures of him/her and the stuff he/she had done/ achieved since the earlier video. And then i want it to cut out slowly zooming away.
