Further Jumpscare Research

From watching this video it really helped us to see what adds up to a good jump scare as we realised that it is not the jump scare alone but the build up is just as important, so we thought that if we showed her walking to her car and slowly build up the pace so that she is little bit spooked by the time she gets to her car and when she gets there she thinks she is finally safe and then we reveal the dead body, we thought this would work. As we knew we couldn't build up her background hugely as it is an opening title sequence and we only have 1 and a half minutes before it to do show what we want.
We wanted a jump scare that had a slow build up and the tension slowly builds up which is similar to the jump scare in insidious as we see the scare just before the main character does.
