After watching our first rough cut we all came to the conclusion that it was rather embarrassing lol!
we noticed many mistakes with flowing of cuts to cuts and that the we did not have many different shot types, so we've decided to rethink our movie idea, we no longer want to do a movie about a boy with telekinesis as it was too hard to portray his powers without looking silly.
OUR NEW PLOT-
We've decided to stick with the idea that the main character (Montell) gets bullied in the park, we are sticking to the same setting as it is secluded which adds to the atmosphere.
Scene 1- Montell walks through park/forest (establishing shot)
When Montell is walking through the park, we will use shots of him walking (long shot- of him with bullies in sight, close up and mid close ups. We will then use a tilt up of one of the bullies, and we will use cut away when the bullies are shouting to Montell from afar. When the confrontation takes place (when bullies take drugs away from Montell) we will use a range high/low angles, shot-reverse shots and over the shoulder shots, match cuts (eye line).
Scene 2- When Montell runs away. This scene will consist of a good range of shots including jump shots (when mother is taking drugs) Slow motion will also be added when mother is taking drugs whilst editing.
Scene 3- Montell enters home, goes to see mother very quickly, small amount of speech as he proceeds to go upstairs into his room. Mother is angry,use cut away to show drugs she is using then use a close up and extreme close up) Try use split screen in editing if possible.
Scene 4- Point of view shot- the mother walks upstairs and witnesses Montell holding a knife.
