The Idea

 Today, my group and I met up for our first meeting and discussed about our plan. I decided on creating a group with Matthew Nitipatkul and Tyler Morsani. We all had decided to complete a film and document the whole process, so we then decided to go with the idea of the film opening. I came up with a great film idea and explained it to my group mates for a good amount of time and they both agreed to my idea. I explained my idea about an action scene with a suspenseful introduction and then a large cliffhanger at the end. We will do a fight scene with me as the main character winning, Matthew and Tyler as the two kidnappers, and Tyler also dressed up at the girlfriend. The main idea is that the girlfriend (or her ex-boyfriend as we are not sure yet) is the mastermind behind the kidnapping as they have evil intent, and the cliffhanger will be a clue hinting to who really orchestrated the event. The kidnappers will be revealed as friends or relatives of the main antagonist which helps create the suspense for the film. We also talked about the camera shots, movements, and sound effects we need for each scene for the film and made sure to list the ones we should be using. We listed arc shot, random movement, mid shot, fixed shot, and POV shots for the film. For the opening, we also decided to use an establishing or master shot. We hope our film can fit under two minutes and will be successful.
