Intro basis: Deciding what to do and how to plan out a 800 point story when you never have before, can seem like a daunting task. Since this is my first time doing this, I look for inspiration. The opening and ending scenes are arguably the most important part of this piece, we can't make it look like a trailer. So, I did some research. Black Panther. All though it is not a boxing film, the structural development of the plot and opening scenes are one I would like to mirror. I feel like it is important to bring in other genre aspects and ideas to an existing one to give it some new juice. In the beginning of the film, there are lots of establishing shots and cuts of Chadwick Boseman. (Black Panther) They want to establish first the relationship between the main character and the audience. opening setting scene (protagonist) A couple minutes later they intro the Antagonist, Michael B Jordan in the art gallery. opening setting scene (antagonist) I feel like based on commercials we can't intro both at the same time or else it will look like we are advertising the movie rather then starting it. So, if we open with Connor and end the opening briefly with me throwing a punch in a bag and the title popping up, it will be implied he is about to fight someone and illustrate a new villain to the audience.
Next class since we haven't started storyboarding yet we will put all this together.
Side note decision : Main outdoor filming location will be Midtown Athletic Club. Connor will wear white. I will wear black to follow good /bad color plot trends.
