Opening Sequence:

A point of view shot (from Alice’s view) of walking up a pair of old creaky apartment stairs. She knocks on a door, a man appears and in a stern voice says “What do you want?”. The camera turns to an over the shoulder shot to show Alice smile and thrust her arm forward, a close up shot then will show the expression on the landlords face as he begins to bleed out after being stabbed by Alice, as he falls to the floor the mirror behind the man captures the image of Alice with a knife in her hand and covered in blood. The camera then switched to show a glimpse of the man bleeding out on the floor and then switches back to the view of the mirror were Alice has vanished.

The whole scene the cuts to a close up shot of are main character Lewis Carrol's face as he awakes from a nightmare the camera then shows the audience and establishing shot of the apartment wish is in a complete mess, we then are shown a drawing of Alice with the her name at the top of the page the camera focuses in this in order to show that it is the title of the film. It then follows Lewis into the bathroom and an over the shoulder shot shows him splash water onto his face and then it cuts to black.
