The first idea that we had for our thriller film
Characters:
Femme fatal: Scarlet
Gangsters: Nameless men x 3
Plotline:
The victim’s car is driving down the road to the car park multi-storey whilst the femme fatale watches; she’s smoking and gets a call (over the shoulder shot of her on the phone watching the car pulling into the multi-storey) and replies with ‘he has just arrived’. Car is in the car park driving into a space, he gets out and opens the car boot (shot of him from the boot of the car leaning in to get the briefcase) and takes it out and looks inside. Femme fatale walks over to the man holding a gun and asks for the briefcase. Man starts to run, two guys start chasing him (high angle shot of him running down the stairs) and they catch him and the femme fatale hits him and the men drag him into the lift giving the femme fatale the suitcase. The femme fatale goes into the toilets and washes the blood of her hands (shot of her in the mirror, another of the blood pouring down the plughole). She then changes and walks out with the briefcase.
We figured that the plotline would be far too complicated and that we would need the characters to be older than us to make it more realistic. However, we liked the common generics of a thriller film such as the use of the briefcase, femme fatale and the hand gun.

ReplyDeleteEmily you have still not done your questionnaire nor the definitions of film noir and the femme fatale.
ReplyDeleteYou have had more than enough time to complete this work. Ignoring deadlines without any explanation is not acceptable at A Level. I told you in the above post written 8 days ago that you could contactme with problem.s
If shot well your idea could be pulled off but it is loaded with worn out cliches, too much action and not convincing because the action does not reflect your group's experience of the world !!! Thus it is likely the opening would be cheesy. Well done for discarding it.
ReplyDeleteEmily you need to get planning of your revised ideas onto your blog. You have done well with catching up with your research, now for the planning.
ReplyDeleteEmily you are behind with your planning. You need to post story boards, costume designs, character profiles etc onto your blog as soon as possible.
