Main Production - Diary Entry 1 - Original Ideas

When we first got told about out main production about making an opening to a Film Noir task i was unable to attend the lesson. My group is Michael Raucci and Chris Howard. In this lesson they were told to brainstorm inital ideas to get a basic view of what the Film Noir opening would consist of.
The Ideas that were finalised are;

• A Simple Scene with a little action.
• The scene should be one place with possibilities of two scenes being used.
• The main character is rich and well known but then takes a dramatic event and his reputation is lowered.
• Male voice over as they will develop more mysteriousness.
• The voice over will be important to the scene and inform the audience what they need to know.

This is the basic plot that was come up with and with the consideration of the opening being developed into a feature film then it can easily be transformed.
Once i was able to see the plans then i agreed and thought they all were very good for initial ideas.
For the agenda of the week ahead then we will try and finalise all pre production that we need, which consists of characters, characters names, costumes, location, script, risk assessment, and a RECCE.
