Maint task - Post 4 - Group Meeting

We have held a group meeting and after evaluating our research we have come to the conclusion that we will stick with the action genre, seeing as majority of our random people said that action was their favourite genre of film. We too brainstormed what we want our film to be about and also what the opening sequence will consist of.

Description of film
Craig Brooks, an undercover cop is on yet another case, as he hunts down a mafia squad holding his mother captive at her own will. Craig constantly searches for clues that may lead him to the whereabouts of the mafia squad and his mother. The mafia squad want nothing but Craig's father million pound fortune, will Craig eventually have to give up his fathers money for the sake of his mother? Or will the mafia squad torment Craig and his family at the same time as gaining the jackpot sum of money?

Opening sequence description
The opening sequence will consist of the opening titles as well as a flashback of Craig's past, in which we see Craig's fathers death (this gives the audience an overview of what the films background/past is). The scene would then cut to the mafia squad planning their next scheme to make money

Group Discusion
In our group discusion we all talked and agreed on certain things like the mis en scene needs to be around a darkly lit room with a round table and the centre of the table will be well lit to give it significance, to fit in with the stereotype of our film. we also agreed on the charecter names and how they act and each have there own personalitys.
