Prezi write up

Created by: Myself

Tayla Powell, Nicola Ho and I created a slide show on prezi.com to show our research and ideas, our thought proccess to our final decision on picking the movie genre and story line.

The first screen shot shows the area where we put our important details; this section concludes what we have thought about after completing the brain storm and shows that we came to decision based from the spider diagram and are our own personal preferences.

This screen shot shows the start of us making our brain storm which included many different film genres and we also added examples of films within that genre or a subgenre of it.

Here this screen shot concludes on our five reasons why we have concluded with this final idea. The ideas are linked to show the thought process we went through in deciding on the Thriller/Fantasy genre.

We chose Alice in Wonderland and Red Riding Hood as our film inspirations because Alice in Wonderland is fantasy and has some aspects of a thriller. It is also quite a unique film and we could draw inspiration from it as to how we could make our film opening unique. We chose Red Riding Hood because they have done successfully what we were thinking of doing: "remaking a fairytale into a thriller film" and we could again get inspiration from this film so both films are inspiration sources.

Since we had decided on a genre Tayla, Nicola and I decided to think of possible location settings that could be creative or fit the our genre and storyline. Tayla came up the idea of Ashridge Park, I came up with the idea of Gadebridge Park and Nicola came up with the idea of a graveyard.

Then we thought about possible fairytale characters we could use and thought up a non thorough plot that we would use with them and also we came up with how the characters would be altered from their original characteristics.

In this screen shot, we showed that we had come to the decision that we would be using the fairytale character "Snow White". We put the reasonS we chose her i.e. there is more potential in the original storyline that can be adapted into darker themes and that she is a relatable, well known character.

We were all fairly intrigued about the idea of using a close up shot of Snow White eating the poisioned apple so we found an example of a close up shot we could use which is different from the original and in that respect would be more creative.

Here is the overall view of Nicola’s, Tayla's and my slideshow we made to discuss our ideas and which we finalised our genre on.
