Planning it out

 

 Our Vision

Starting out this week, my group decided it would be best to create an outline of our film, that we can eventually either turn into a script or story board. We wanted our outline to be simple and flexible, since you never know what we might want to change once we get on set and begin filming. We are all very creative minds, so a lot of the shots are up for debate and we are still trying to finalize the ending, so the outline is subject to change but this is what we have currently!

Film Opening Outline (V.1)

• Start with shots of security cameras, multiple shots as character goes into building - constant shots from the cameras

• Security camera shots (last one is when character is about to go in)

• Transition with OTS shot of character looking at camera)

• Character enters into building

• Various shots, exploring office surrounding, looking through desks/cubicles (may be cut for time)

• Kitchen (coffee and twinkies)

• As they look through office cabinets, titles of actor, director, etc appear in screen

• Extremely wide shot of office space

• Goes into factory looks for supplies

• Could do shot where they find scrap metal/nut and look through it

• Cut to traversing outside could use drone here?

• Eventually Close up of foot being placed on track, just as they are going to walk over it, and then they hear the train (show train lights blinking?)

• Close-up of them being scared (since they think they are the last one on earth)

• Last shot, from across train track, space in between character and camera has motion pass by it to show the train

  (Working title - Losing Track) 

    

• Things to Think on 

   

  A couple of my group members were not in class today, so this outline is currently a work in progress. When we last spoke we all had a good understanding and similar idea of what we wanted, so I feel we may very well stick with this.

   

  Also my group member Sabrina and I, that were here today, still discussed how we wanted our character to look, her intentions, what exactly the deeper meaning of our film is, and the plot itself. I hope to update yall soon about what we discussed!
