Like the film Munich, we wanted to add a fictional twist to a real event which required research as to what incidents occurred on September 11th and what we particularly wanted to focus on. Below are headlines that I collected that are about the attacks, illustrating the response of the American public and media. There were some headlines blatantly addressing the possible conspiracies behind the attacks, which is where we drew an influence from for Premonition. Because there was a lot of spectacle around what really happened, we decided to implement this into our own film. As well as this, because of the massive media outcry and the prominent newspaper headlines that are seen below, we decided to show the influence of these headlines through our opening credits, by having the lettering consist of newspaper cut outs.
As well as this, we had to gather research on the specific timings of the attacks.The timeline on the BBC website helped us to find accurate timings for when significant events (such as the first plane crashing into the north tower) took place. Our script of the news report that we wanted to use as a voice over required factual timing in order to make it realistic and keep the audience's interest engaged.
