Absence of credits in our opening - explanation

In our two minute opening, we do not have any opening credits mentioning the director(s), cast or production companies.  This was NOT a mistake!

In most thriller-crime films if something important, such as a murder in our case, occurs it is standard procedure to not show the credits until the next part of the film.  This is mainly because this kind of opening really sets the tone for the rest of the film, and therefore the filmmaker does not want the audience to be distracted by the credits, and therefore show them at a less vital part of the movie. We have emulated this in our own opening.
