Why we chose script idea 1

Reasons why we chose story idea 1
Reasons why we chose this idea are because we felt that it was the most realistic as in it was the easiest for us to make and because we felt that the others were too hard for us to achieve at a good level. Story Idea 1 was good because we have the things that we need to get a good standard; we have people who are willing to help out with chase scenes, bike riding at fast speeds and people who are willing to act as stunt doubles. We have someone in our group who knows how to use Sony Vegas (Video Editing) and he knows how to use Adobe After Effects (special effects program), so that will help us get the gunshot effects that we desire to have. We have a rough idea of where we are going to film, and are going to scout them out and their environment on weekends and see what it is like. And we have the costumes and props we need already and anyone we are missing we are going to buy.

We decided not to do the other 2 story ideas because we thought that they would require a lot more work and items and environments which we desire to have, we wouldn’t be able to have. Such as in story idea 2 we wanted an elevator, with a camera view on the outside with a low angle shot watching the elevator go up. We might have been able to get the elevator, but we wouldn’t be able to get the shot we want. We feel that we will be able to compromise at some areas to get the film but we wouldn’t get it to the standard to what we want and we feel that it won’t be as good as story idea 1. But this would be our second choice because we have a rough idea of where we could film it but it wouldn’t be to a good level.

We had also had story idea 3 which was going to be a horror film. But this was the most likely one that we wouldn’t chose, we really liked the idea of this but felt that it was going to be the hardest to achieve at a good standard. It would require a lot of make-up, costumes, a couple of buildings which look old, abandoned and would have no other (working) humanity around them, e.g. car sounds, roads. We know a couple of abandoned buildings but not in the environment that we want. We thought if we could do this idea well it would be great but we didn’t feel that we would be able to get a horror film to a good level with its effects of tension and scare tactics like making you jump. So this idea was also put to the side
