For my film ideas, I had been using some of the inspiration that I had gained from the different films that I had analysed to see what I would and wouldn't want my film to be based around. Eventually, I was able to weight the positives and negatives of each film and see what would and wouldn't work well work well for my own film.
Film Genre: Urban Teen Crime
Due to my analysis of some of the many Urban Crime films, there are out there, I was able to choose that I would prefer for my film idea to based on people going through the adolescent stage of life that live in the "ghetto" area of London. I felt this way as people who are going through adolescence are more provoked or influenced by ideas/actions that may not be towards the greater good. This would help to make a good film, as it would give the audience not only a film containing energetic characters, but also a film that is able to give the audience an insight into the sorts of issues that some people may have to face at this point in life, essentially giving the audience an interesting and impressive storyline to follow. I also feel that it should be based around a group of boys who don't actually commit any real crimes initially, but due to the area they live in are eventually subdued by the temptations. I feel this would be a good storyline, as it would give the viewer a different kind of insight into the real world of an adolescent person living in a lower class area of London.
Brief Narrative Ideas
I haven't been able to go into complete detail in regards to how I would want the story to go, but I do have a few ideas. Firstly, I want the opening to start off with an introduction to the main characters for the film, and the group could possibly meet with some dangerous people that live in their estate
later on in the film, where they think to themselves if that is really the line they want to go down with their lives.
Even though this is a brief idea that clearly needs much more in-depth analysis, it does essentially cover Todorov's' five stages. It also gives some of the main ideas that would get an audience be able to feel a certain way about the different characters, and more specifically why they are the way that they are.
