The Run – 2 Minute Film OpeningThe Opening

Jamie Farrow

Theme

• The theme to our video is action, a chase scene.

• We have chosen to do an action as we have not yet filmed one and would like to try filming one.

Mood Progressions

• In the first few shots, there will be a spooky, mysterious feel to the scene as it is of the scientist in his lab talking about the drug.

• Later scenes will gather tension as the free runners find out that they are getting followed/chased.

• This tension will build until the free runners escape getting caught by fooling the people who are chasing them by attacking the wrong person.

Location

• There will be very urban/towny shots as the film opening is to do with a chase scene through London city. Some shots will include indoor shots of some kind of a lab or dark room.

Statement

• There isn't really a specific statement that each scene will make, but the lab/dark room shots will add a sense of spookiness and confusion, which will hopefully make the viewer want to watch the rest of the video.

Lighting

• The scenes will be naturally lit as the majority of the scenes will be outside, during the daytime. Although a few scenes may be low lighting as there will be scenes shot in a lab/dark room.

Props

• Bag - We will include a bag where the drug will be carried in by the free runners.

• Lab Coat - The scientist will be wearing a lab coat, this will add to the effect of the mad scientist who has created a new drug.

• Lab Equipment - The scientist will have lab equipment in the surrounding environment which will help give the scientific feel to the room.

Belongings

• The scientist in the lab/dark room will have some lab equipment around him as these things will be appropriate in the scene and are used by scientists.

• The drug will be carried by the people who are carrying it from one side of the city to the other.The free runners will always have this bag once they have been given the drug to take, this is because they will be looking after the drug and ensuring that wit will not be taken.

Clothing

• The scientist will be wearing a lab coat, which makes sense considering he will be in a lab, previously working on a new drug.

• The free runners will be wearing casual clothes as this is what people tend to free run in.

Colour

• There isn't really a specific colour pallet that we are aiming to use in this video, I don't really feel that it is necessary to do so.

• We just went for a dark lighting scheme for the first few shots.
