for my film i developed a simple storyline where two businessmen were meeting and they were ending a business relationship between two companies.
I got Partick and Arron to act as my businessmen and after some trial and error shooting I managed to get all the shots i needed in order to put together my preliminary task

I think that the films that i watched the opeing scene off where all very good for diffrent reasons. I like `The God Fathers One` as it is exciting and gets into action straight away and gets you wanting to watch the rest of it. Moulin Rouge is romatic to begin with and has a romatic feel about it and the opening scene narrates the story for you so you want to see it for yourself. Elizabeth is very storng and emotinal straight away and starts opff with a story and gets right into it from the start. Pulp Fiction starts off with two of the main charchters telling you off there plan and then get straight into it.

I have learnt allot about filming and hwo to the film look more effective to my adavantage and how to portray my film the way i want it to be portrayed as. i have leanrt how to add many effets like fuzzing mirror and split screen which all make my film look much better than it orignal was.
