My approach to this project was to initially decide the aesthetic I want my film to show. My favorite type of movies are more organic using a lot of hand held camera technique like Project X. However, I realized if I produce my film this way it would not help my grade and it would probably look unprofessional and uncared for. I must focus on showing technique and strategy. I have many long term movie ideas but I need to think of a proper introduction to one.
I enjoy horror films so most of my ideas are resulting in such genre. I am looking to create an introduction to a drama or a horror film. Films in these genres tend to have very strong sound edition and music production. Horror films often explore themes of unknown which is something I would like to integrate into my film.
Around 3 years ago I had watched the comedy movie TAG directed by Jeff Tomsic. The movie shows a group of middle aged men meeting up after years of not seeing each other just to play a very competitive game of Tag. This movie happens to be based on a true story. This inspired me to do something similar with my old group of friends. We had made a contract with rules. Every first week of April we had a prank war, the pranks had to be filmed in order to count, players were allowed to team up but only in pairs... etc. With this, I had come up with a movie idea in which one of the characters dies because of a prank that was pulled and the whole movie focuses on personal issues each friend had with that girl and who actually killed her and was it an accident?
