During our own time, our group got together to discuss possible openings for our final coursework. We had already previously decided on a social realism genre however had not finalised our ideas together.
After showing our mood boards to each other, we decided on the main two ideas that we favoured and thought we would be able to bring across both the problem and narrative in an opening 2 minutes.
Pitch 1 - Social Realism
Contemporary
Indie Teenage Drama
Drug related
Credits embedded within the objects in the scene
Shots - long shot with slow zoom into main character on bench
- extreme close up into eye
- zoom out and high angle shot, birds eye view where protagonist can be seen from above
whilst lying on a bed
- panning shots around the room of different objects showing credits
Pitch 2 - Social Realism
Contemporary
Transgender issues
Credits embedded within the objects in the scene
Shots - tracking shot behind main character, following through a street
- reaction shots of passers by, giving different looks towards the actor, with credits edited into negative space
- a panning shot around the head, to reveal the characters face, a female with short hair and stereotypically "boy-ish" features
For both of these ideas, the group as a whole decided on the greyscale colour palette as the genre we want to continue towards the drama, social realism genre for our opening.
This colour tone lends itself to our genre choice as it is very realistic to the normal world, however can be seen as dramatically emotional, as the tone suggests.
