2nd idea for film opening

Film opening idea 2:

General idea and storyline:

There is a lawyer that works at a firm in New York City. Later down the road after working there for the past couple of years the character finally realises how corrupt the firms system is and wants to do something about it. After a while he figures out that they come to decisions that should not be supported such as allowing people get away with rape and murder. He feels like he should do something about this situation by taking legal action but they are to strong to take down as an individual. He takes this further into the depths of murder and wants to erase the leader of the conpany to end the lies.

Setting:

As it is based within New York City so tall built up area with a lot of buildings would be needed in order to make it believable. Another way to make it more effective to to use a building which has offices and court rooms to make the scenes that are needed.

Music:

When the intro to the film begins it should start with quite upbeat music which then stops. Throughout the rest of the film use quite dramatic music or depressing songs in order to make it feel as if the character is feeling like his mood.

Costume:

The actors would have to wear suits in order to make it feel realistic. Casual clothing is not associated with lawyers as they can afford higher class expenive clothing.

Lighting:

Bright lighting in order to show documents shown withing the camera and body language for emotions. Have lights used that are in a standard office for the realistic theme to it, and make it feel like we are there. 

Editing/camera:

As there will be a lot of dialogue such as conversations between characters, the use if cutting between one anothrt will be effective as they speak. Over the shoulder shots also would be used to display who they are speaking to and so on. 

Saw The Final Chapter

The saw films come under the horror genre, which appeals to those who enjoy those types of movies. As it comes under the horror genre, there is a lot of tense, scary situations, and they are also known for violence and gore. As viewers of the "Saw" films are interested in gory atmospheres, it has an effective introduction as it starts with a typical saw trap which involves death. By having this, it draws in the fans and persuades them to keep watching.

The first scene involves two guys fighting over a woman that had cheated on them both. It then has to have at least one person die. This event takes place in a public location in a street so passing pedestrians can watch the horror take place. The director may have done this to create and display a point about today's society in how we enjoy watching these sorts of things take place. Only one person attempts to save them but it does not work, in which they then give up., implicating that we don't try hard enough and give up easily.

Another point that could be taken from this is that people should work together in order to survive, even if it means sacrificing something you love. The clip shows that if two people don't get along with eachother. They are forced with a difficult situation, you set your dislikes apart and work together.

There are several camera angles used including close ups which promote the characters emotions that are being given off, and make us sympaphise with the current situation. It can also add more fear and highlight how scared they are. As well as that, there are camera angles outside from the audiences point of view, made for us to feel like we are apart of the audience and make it feel like we are watching it take place. The camera also makes it looks professional from the use of "match on action", using many cameras to film the action and make it look fluid. This technique also allows us to see the whole set, and establish a set of the surroundings.

No soundtrack is used during the scene to emphasise the danger and tension taking place. The sounds of pain are more obvious therefore more thrilling for the audience to view.
