Initial IdeasWe first had the idea of a film involving football hooligans, We then changed this idea because we were only had very limited choices of location and also only had three people to film. This made it difficult for us to produce an opening sequence around that idea.
PitchWe then had the idea of A man losing his job, he handles this badly and decides to drown his sorrows in a local park, as a result of this he passes out. We had the idea of his troubles worsening before they got better. It shows how people handle real life situations. Our character grew up in a bad area where drinking, drug use and violence where a real problem.
NarratorIn this opening sequence we are going to have a narrator, they are going to tell the audience what is happening with the man in our film. We thought this would be a good idea because it would show accurately how the man acts in bad situations. The narrator will also introduce the character very quickly into the film.
CharactersThe main character in our film, is the man that loses his job, he is going to be a 'chav'. The reason he loses his job is due to having a bad attitude and dressing inappropriately. Another character we have in the film is the mans boss, he will be very serious and and domineering over our the 'chav'.
Locations We have two main locations in the opening sequence, the first main location is the man place of work. This is going to be where his first piece of bad luck happens.(He loses his job)
The second main location in the film is the park bench, this is where the man drowns his sorrows, this is going to show him coping with the real life situation very badly.
