Major Project Development

Today me and the producer (who is also the scriptwriter) met up today as he had recently written the first draft which I'd had a few days to look over. I talked about a ups, downs and possible developments of the script which he made a note of to consider when he did the second draft. As well as this, now that we had a framework we discussed how many actors and locations we would need and a where we could get them.

It was a very brief meeting but it felt good to have things moving already in motion for the semester two major project.

Now that the script for the major project has been outlines, I can explore where I want to go stylistically over the Christmas break. So far there was only one film that immediately jumped out at me at me that we could perhaps use as a base point, Fight Club. There of course other elements to consider such as what audio visual stylistic approach I want to take and how I want to dress the set and the actors. But as said I have a while now to debate an answer to these points. I will also be speaking to my cinematographer about what came to mind when he read the script so that we can come up with a good few films between us to critically analyse together.
