Developing on idea for both the opening sequence and entire film
Opening:
- Party in basement
- Everyone on drugs/alcohol
- Someone overdoses
- Girl (protagonist) walks out, everyone fussing
- Girl gets outside, and smiles.
We agreed that the concept of a journey works well in film
opening such as Legally Blonde and Donny Darko which we have all watched. We
think this would be good to give structure and narrative to our opening.
Having researched teenage films targeted at 16-24 year olds
for inspiration, we discovered that not many are deadly serious and so we should
incorporate another genre element into our film/film opening.
To strengthen our idea, we discussed the back story and the rough plan for the rest of the film.
We came up with a list of our favourite possibilities and ideas.
Below is a brainstorm of ideas for why the protagonist left:
We decided that the film would tell the story of the protagonist as a teenager bounty hunter, but in the opening we would not represent this, we would end on the girl smiling in a creepy way, creating enigma and confusion.
