Opening Sequence First Shoot

This is a reshoot of the dream sequence and the first scene in the house, after he wakes up. This edit allows for us to see the cross cutting between the opening dream sequence and when he wakes up. However this edit misses some aspects of the film that I want. e.g. the non-diegetic music during the dream sequence which will build tension in the scene by becoming more and more dramatic, this sound will then cut to silence when he wakes up. This edit also lacks some diegetic sound, mainly the front door opening, which will indicate the main characters movements down the stairs.
The opening shot of this scene doesn't follow the editing style of the rest of the film
Another area of the film I would like to change is the shot we see the character waking up, I would cut that a few frames forward which would open it with his arm outstreched, this would make the cut a piece of pictoral and continuity editing.
I want to re-edit this edit as I want the point when he opens the door from the outside to start as a closeup then pull away. This will make the area around him feel and look empty and personify his lonely personal feelings.
We are going to do an audio commentry on what we want to change and develop in this edit.
