First responses to the brief

On Thursday January 20th, our group first discussed our thoughts on the brief during our lesson. We were all excited about the task and couldn't wait to get started.
To begin with we decided to choose what genre we were interested in, after a few suggestions including comedy and drama we narrowed it down to the genres of: Dark Comedy and Thriller
At the end of this meeting we decided the best thing to do was to go home and think up an initial idea (film sequence) for the next day.
During our next lesson, we fed back our ideas, and chose the best one to take further and develop. Here was my initial idea:
A dark comedy about a boy who has phsycological issues, and gradually becomes more and more fixated on a girl. After months of stalking, one day after school he follows her home and kidnapps her believing she will marry him. The film gains it comedic elements from an awkward stand off between the two in his parents garage.

After reviewing the practicalities and potential of our ideas we settled on Sam's thriller idea. We arranged to meet our teachers at lunch and present our idea for the sequence later that day during lunch, prior to this we held another group meeting on Friday lunch where we built an initial story line.
