Initial opening scene ideas

In our group we took it in turns to present our initial mood boards to each other. From this we created a collection of similar ideas that were within our mood boards. We then used these common ideas to come up with two initial ideas that we could use for our opening scene.

Idea 1

One theme we shared was parkour. We used this to create a lighthearted action film concept that revolved around two main characters. One mature and well versed in the action lifestyle and the other younger and less so. Originally we thought their connection could be father and son however, we decided on their relationship being brothers as we felt this would be a better dynamic.

Idea 2

Our second idea is very different to the first. We based this on the darker themes present in our mood boards. We started with a simply concept of a girl being chased through a wood or other ominous setting and went from there. An issue with this is it is very cliche and so we will have to research and trial ways in which to move away from the stereotypical thriller, or embrace it and use these ideas tastefully.
