One last change

Nick and I have changed our idea many times. We thought we had the perfect idea and I talked about in one of my last post. But after the group meeting everyone including the teacher said we were trying to do too much in a little amount of time. Nicks group also gave him feedback and said that we should change around the idea. So we sat down and brainstormed ways too change the idea and make it shorter but we couldn't find a way to do it and for it to still be good. So we decided to start over and create a whole new idea. After a million bad ideas, we finnaly thought of a good one that is short enough to not overwhelm the audience but also intresting enough for them to want to keep watching the film.

Our film opening is going to look like an action movie. It's going to have all the elements of one such as the the music and the filter. We want people to believe it is going to be an average action movie with drugs and guns like every action movie has. During the film opening it is going to show the two main characters getting ready for their mission. After they are finished preparing for their mission their is going to be a scene of them in an elevator. It is gong to be a two shot of them next to each other in slow motion and a low angle to make them see powerful. But our movie is a comedy so their is going to be a plot twist. We are going to add several comedic elements. One of them is while their is a slow motion scene of the two men, a lady is going to walk in and their going to try to close the elevator while she's trying to get in but she's going to be in and then their is going to be another slow motion shot of the woman and the men in slow motion. We are also going to add other several comedic scene so it is obvious it is a comedy and not an action. 

We are so sure of this idea that we began filming for it. We only filmed a small part of the beginning with a table of drugs and guns. In this scene the two men are getting ready for their mission. We used several low angles of the men and the table to make them seem more powerful. We also used a green filter like in the matrix. We are trying to use as least words as possible because the two men are my friends so they are not the best actors. We are going to depend more on individual movement and sound elements. Here is a  picture I from our shooting.
