Journal- Planning Stages

lly22-26 November

During the last week as a group we have all been deciding the necessary factors that are the core to our title sequence. Such as we needed to decide on a genre we were in between a psychological thriller and crime, we all decided that crime would be the best. We decided to name it PI (Private Investigator) as the films basis would be on an private investigator and the troubles he goes through to get justice. We had a discussion on what type of characters we would want to be in title sequence and we decided that we wanted there to be two lead roles that of the inspector and the criminal he is chasing. We decided we wanted to the two lead roles to be male as we felt an equal state, as using a women would give her more dominance over the male. Whereas we wanted them to be equa
lly strong as this would create and uncertainty and suspense.We decided on a narrative of the inspector chasing the criminal but the criminal being involved in a gang. So the whole situation spirals out of control for the inspector and his name becomes a mark for the gangsters to cross out. As a group we also wanted to give the illusion in our title sequence that we want this film to have sequels. We also looked into the props in which we wanted to use they are a telephone, a folder in which the suspects details will be in. Lastly we want to use a massive white board, where information on the suspect and his fellow gang members will be spread out amongst the white board with images and text to support the case. Then finally this week we were given two films to look at and these were "The Departed" and "The infernal affairs 2" and we all shall analyse these this week.
