When we presented our idea to Matt and Mike they thought our idea was really cool. Danny was off sick so Sienna and I pitched the idea.
They suggested we make our main character more memorable, more iconic for an audience. The costume is significant (a sick jacket with something abstract on the back) or he has a cap or funky boots to make him seem moe iconic. We talked about the audience wanting an influential look they can admire or layer copy.
Matt thought of the idea that he resuscitated one of the bodies only to then kill him again once brought back to life. we also liked this idea although thought about the logistics of it and preferred that he don't speak nor did we see his face. However we really liked the idea he suggested about having a girl in the club, hyperventilating, freaking out because she's just witnessed all this. He gives her mercy and she runs out. i liked this idea because it hints at his personality that may not be totally evil.
We agreed that the shattered glass was too difficult but the mirror was still doable as long as we get the angle right. We thought about casting and what we vision our main guy to look like. Preferably someone with a muscly back who looks pretty fierce, although we won't see his face. We had to work out the fact that our years above cannot be used in our opening sequences. (although we will look more at casting later)
danny and i talked about when and how we wanted the music to start and we were set on the idea that it was a sound bridge from his headphones to the soundtrack as he kills the first guy
Here is a relatively solid plan for our opening sequence so far:
- man in club sitting on chair, no shirt on and listening to music
- shot of his back
- shot of his his back/side profile (focussing on ear)
- shot of his hands then feet with a hand on the floor.
- shots of the club, lights, different features
- cut to man crawling, begin on his legs then follows him up with blood trailing him
- camera cuts back to a behind shot of
- Slight sigh from killer, puts on coat and stands up as he. Music cuts to loud, soundtrack
- One long take of killer putting on coat, picking up hammer and slowly walking to guy crawling
- We saw his whole persons walking through this nightclub esc hallway with pink and purple lights
- We then cut to the man crawling again and the cameras at his level, music cuts back to being played out of earphone
- We see the killer striking his hammer down, (music cuts back to loud and soundtrack) and then cut before impact to girl in the corner gasping
- Cut back to behind of killer, camera pans when he slowly looks over to see her sitting there terrified
- Then cut to bunch of more dead bodies on ground. They are all dead and bloody. Music is still soundtrack.
- Cut to rings as well on dead people, same ring on all of them - criminal syndicate type beat.
- Silhouette of man walking out with lights. He leaves girl alone, she is alive.
