My group presented our idea for our horror movie opening. this is the feedback we got from our class mates.
This is a link to our Prezi presentation:
Prezi Presentation
Our story-line is a group of friends are going home after a party and they are hyper-active. There is a couple in this group of friends; the girlfriend goes to urinate and her boyfriend follows her and wants to progress their relationship. However she does not want to do it there and as a result he kills her.
One of our classmates feedback was about the fact that we were drunk in Clapham common, it would be a problem and if we never actually got drunk could our actors act it out to a good standard. Also the fact that we are underage is also a problem. We said that we had thought about this and the consequences and as a result we wouldn't be drunk but be hyper-active instead so we behave silly.
Another one of our classmates told us that the opening would be too short and that we should fill it out a bit more by showing the party; showing the girlfriend and the boyfriend having an argument and then the group of friends leaving the party. She said by doing this it would fill it out a bit more.
Also, one of her classmates elaborated on the fact that he would kill his girlfriend with no motive therefore she agreed that we should show the couple having an argument and the boyfriend becoming annoyed with her. By doing this it also fills out the opening to an appropriate length.
Another classmate said that we tried to show the whole story line of the film however, she said that we should only be doing the opening. She said that the story line could be that the boyfriend is a serial killer and goes around killing all his friends as it makes sense for the rest of the film and creates the sense of suspense to see how the others die.
Another classmate said that so the boyfriend (the killer) doesn't get suspected; we should give him a cover. For example he was taking his girlfriend home because she was tired and felt sick and was dropping her close to her house but had to leave as he need to be home. We decided that it would be interesting and would leave the viewer in suspense of what happened to the girlfriend and if he killed her or not.
Also, my teacher stated that the fact that we would have a knife is bad as it may seem like we are actually killing someone and she asked what would we do about the blood? We replied that we wouldn't actually use a real knife, we would buy a fake knife and fake blood from the party shop in Clapham junction.
In my opinion, I have taken on board all the comments and ideas my classmate gave me. As a result we will communicate and decide on the best idea that we will work with. For example we could fill out the opening scenes by adding things in like the party or we could show the boyfriend walking the girlfriend home. As a result of all the comments, feedback and ideas from my fellow classmates and my teacher I have a good idea of what I want to do, so I will be putting that idea forward to my group and discussing what we should do as a finishing product.
