First Individual Meetings!

 In our individual meetings, Olivia and I met with our teacher to discuss our film. 

We realized there were a few inconsistencies with developing the male love interest of the film, as we want the killer to be the girlfriend of him. This is our main conflict of the film and would need to work in order to fully understand our opening.

We decided to change it from waking up from the call from the mother, as she will already be established with the broken picture frame, but maybe the call being from him as well as the lock screen. A knock on the door will be at the very end of the piece. For his name, we decided on Luke. We thought the name sounded nice. I personally liked it since it reminded me of Star Wars. The name was needed for the contact info for the phone calls, so to achieve this we'll just change our names on our phones to the name of the character depending on the phone we use. 

The phone call will also help with establishing mystery, as one suspect has already been introduced. It will be the audience's first guess, which is the effect we want to achieve. There will be three characters in our opening, but we will only need two actors. Olivia volunteered to be our main character while her friend could play the killer. The knock at the door will be implied to be Luke but his face will not directly be shown. 

A mood board would help develop him a bit. We wanted a preppy-jock vibe for him, giving the essence of our location of Miami. By making him an athlete for the school, it would make him have a higher status in the school, adding to why his girlfriend would go after our protagonist. We also decided on the name Luke Taylor, as we found a jersey that had the last name Taylor for our mood board and we really liked it.
