During last lesson, we started focusing on the opening of our film. For a while we were brainstorming and throwing ideas about until we had come up with our main outline. To ensure that our opening was do able and was in fact a good one, we had to present it back to the class to get their opinions and have them give us ideas about what to change, add in etc. Fortunately we were given the green light with only a few alterations to out original idea.

After this, we then had to put our plan to paper and turn it into a storyboard. At this point we had to think about the types of shots we wanted to use, the location and who was going to star in it. We used the opening of The Life Of David Gale for inspiration as the opening went with the idea we had come up with. Having someone run across the field linked with our version of someone running across a field because they were in danger. Knowing our location helped us come up with ideas for the establishing shots such as a close up of strands of grass and using the depth of field technique on leaves on trees.
