Hi everybody! In today's blog, I'm going to be discussing my overall plans for my film opening! It is still a work in progress, and I'm sure there is more for me to add and fix, but this is a brief explanation/breakdown of my film plot.
If I'm being honest, it did take me a bit to figure out what I wanted to do for my plot. Since I decided that my genre is going to be a drama, I also thought it would be cool to make it like a coming-of-age mystery.
When I first started plotting ideas for the film, I knew I wanted it to be about two girls. After help from my classmates during our group meeting and advice from my friends, I was able to come up with a storyline. For my movie plot, I want it to be about a girl who is shown a controversial photo of herself at a party that's been going around the night before. But when confronted about this photo, she remembers how she never went to a party. The movie will follow her and her friend's journey in trying to figure out who the girl in the photo is that looks exactly like her and who is framing her.
Now, for my film opening, I am going to start it off with either some shots of items around her room that represent the main character or with a longer shot of the camera moving from the floor following up to her sleeping in her bed. It will set in the morning with light peeking through the window into the room. The scenes later will be of her waking up from the sound of spam texts on her phone. When she wakes up she checks the time and sees a bunch of mixed texts and calls. Ignoring them, she forces herself to get up from the bed and walk through the hallway into the kitchen.
When she gets to the kitchen, there will be shots following her to the fridge. While she grabs food to eat, her phone will still be going off, ignoring once again, so she sits down to eat. When suddenly a loud repetition of knocks comes from the front of the house at the front door. Followed by some faint yelling, the startled girl walks over to the door. Getting closer, she realizes its her best friend. Opening the door, her friend walks in the house. She starts confronting her about the picture and asking why she hasn't been answering her phone. The girl, confused, asked to see the picture. Once she sees it, she seems a bit disturbed and confused, realizing that's not actually her in the picture.
The film opening will end when the girl tells her friend that she wasn't ever at a party and she doesn't know who that girl is that looks exactly like her. Leaving them both stunned.
The girl and her best friend will be around the age of 16–17.
