transitioning to my final project!

 The time is here to begin my final project for this course! The blogs I post from this moment on will focus on the steps I have taken to create my final project. This includes any ideas I have, the process of filming, editing, and reviewing, any changes I make to my project, and when I finally post it. I feel that I have done enough in throughout the course of this year to be able to produce a well made opening while being able to produce my ideas properly. 

As of right now we are discussing genres and we have studies numerous film openings to get a good idea of what we should try and achieve when creating our own opening. For now I am thinking of sticking to adventure or romance since I feel I can hopefully create a unique and interesting film opening for those genres. 

For the romance genre I was planning to take an approach where I develop the main character in the opening and just introduce and give some insight on who they are in the film, as well as what they represent. I want to do this since I think it is important to know who the story revolves around in films, especially in the genres I am putting my focus on. Furthermore, I like this approach a lot since I have a lot of freedom with how I introduce the character, such as their costume, dialogue, and interactions with others and their environment.

However, for the adventure genre I was thinking of developing the background and context of the film. I feel if there is an adventure to happen there must be a reason behind it and explaining that in the beginning of the film seems like a good idea. This also shows that it is a film opening and there is more to happen than just what is being established in the 2 minutes that I am creating.
