Planning: Initial Brainstorming

This week myself and my group have begun the planning and preparation for the production for our film. We started by having discussions about sub genre's and hybrid's genre and weather what we type of genre we should choose for our film and we've discussed all of the ideas that we've come up with threw brainstorming and recording a few of our discussions. At first we began with the idea of a crime based thriller with some physiological elements, we recorded the audio of that conversation and threw around a couple ideas that could possibly expand into more processed and developed ideas.

We continued on to discuss about the other aspects of production such as the art style of the film. as a group we all agreed that we liked 'Sin City's' style of cinematography. The films very arty and clever in the way it had been produced and as a group we were taking inspiration from this. In discussions about how we we like to shoot our film, we also talked about having a hand-held camera equipment to use when recording. We thought of this as it could give the audience a better sense of a connection with  the protagonist. We brainstormed and talked about ideas for the crime thriller and had a re think and decided that the idea of a crime thriller just seemed really over done and boring so we started to brainstorm different and interesting sub genres we could explore more into.  As we ended our discussion we started thinking of more ideas and came up with the possible idea of a religious thriller so in the new week we will be continuing to discuss this idea and expand on this idea.
