For our coursework, me and Reece came up with the idea of doing a mystery opening.
We had the idea of making everything saturated apart from red being blood.
We also thought that we would put some shots in reverse so that the audience could tell it was the past. The modern day shots would be in normal time and also be in full colour - this would show the audience which shots were at which time. We would also interchange them so we wouldn't tell the whole story at once, this will be parallel editing.
We were thinking of having blood dripping and a killer leaving the murder scene, meanwhile, in colour a detective comes and and walks into a murder scene, maybe meeting policemen along the way much like the film memento. We could then incorparate the Snatch idea into this for the credits.
I think that this would be effective but some shots would be hard to shoot and if not edited correctly then it would look bad.

You'll need to acknowledge Memento in your planning too Alex.
ReplyDeleteIs that the film we watched? We forgot what the name was :$
ReplyDeleteThe one where the protagonist had no short term memory is memento.
ReplyDeleteThis will be an exceptionally difficult narrative to pull off, make sure your animatics are up to scratch and that you practise filming early on in your planning.
