Production Meeting #1

This is our fantastic team that consists of me, Katie and Holly. Together we are going to struggle through all the difficulties standing in our way in order to make a thriller opening sequence. I guess, there's nothing in the World that can disturb us from making the best opening sequence this World has ever seen. 

However, we haven't decided yet what this sequence is going to be about, but it doesn't matter as we're a fantastic team!

Our first production meeting was very tough and we were even sweating by the end of it. We have two ideas at the moment. One of them is mine and one of them was not mine... one of them was Katie's. If you read my previous blogs you probably saw the ones where I presented my thriller ideas. But, anyway, I guess, it's worth describe the one that was nominated on "Being brought to life by our group" from me. 

We see an official in his house getting ready to go and present his law. He worries very much about it as he realises how much harm it will make to many people, but on the other hand, he believes that the law is going to be very efficient and progressive and so, worth adopting. We see him standing in front of the mirror in the toilet, we see the water flowing from the tap, but the thing we don't see is the face of the official. But still, the Sequence is based on revealing his character as much as possible using different details of his demeanor or of his clothes. At first, we see how he rubs his hands which creates an impression of some amount of blood on his hands that he realizes he has. And we understand that he feels somewhat guilty for what he is going to do.

Next we see him closing the tap. Even though all he does indicates that he worries, still his movements are pretty calm and aristocratic. He dries his hands and walks out of the toilet.

Then we see him walking through a small corridor towards the stairs (there are some photos hanging on the wall). During this little stroll we pick out some extra details of the demeanor and clothes and so, character. Then we see his secretary who tells him that the car is waiting and she gives him some papers which he reads as he walks down the stairs. Then he stops and signs it.

Finally, he walks out the building where his car is waiting. In the last shot we see his face and... "Why so serious?"

The second idea, Katie's idea, not mine idea is completely different. It's about the girl who tries to hand herself. Before this she experienced different things trying to kill herself, but she didn't succeed.  Actually, what sequence will consist of is variety of close-ups where this girl ties the rope, doing something trying to convince the audience that she is really going to hang herself... If it is filmed, it will be in black and white (my idea (i'm sorry for being so conceited)) and we can probably do a good sequence out of it.
