Film opening plan, So far... (:

So, we have decided on a genre for our Coursework. In the beginning, we were going to film a Sci-Fi Rom Com but that idea seemed a bit too difficult to fit into just 2 minutes of footage. Robert & I began thinking about using a Twilight idea and including vampires, but as i said, this seemed too far fetched. When we finally got talking properly, we decided on doing a War Romance.

Our main characters were going to be Sophie and James but after researching old names, they didn't seem appropriate. So we are going to be using Jenny and William. Jenny starts by sitting on a cliff/hill writing William a letter seeing as he is off at war. The letter is then read as a voice over which we'll put on top during editing. The only colour that will be seen in the filming is going to be red. Jenny puts rose petals in the envelope that she's sending to William which represents love and possibly blood. We see her walking through the town to post the envelope to William, after we see her sat writing the letter that she's reading out loud.

The only shot which we have discussed in detail, at the moment, is the camera being in the grass at the beginning. The grass will be swaying in the wind, the camera will tilt upwards and zoom in on Jenny, possibly the letter too.


we live for a better tomorrow, but what if tomorrow isn't any better than today?
