Working Together

At times we found it difficult working together, as we discovered at an early stage. When deciding what film idea we wanted or even what genre we had a lot of disagreements and of course we wanted to create an opening sequence that everyone would be passionate about and willing to work on! So we decided to get a sheet of A3 and each write our 5 favourite films on then join them together in the centre from this we had 3 ideas: A mods and rockers film such like Quadraphenia; A fantasy such as Alice in Wonderland and Twilight and finally a thriller/ action such as Taken. We then looked at the pros and cons for each and worked out that mise en scene needed to create a 60's or fantasy film was not within our budget so we decided on the thriller. People weren't sure at first but it soon came together and when it came to filming people were able to put their hearts into creating the opening sequence! From there on work load was shared to an extent evenly and our group meshed together well.
