First Ideas

The genre of our film would be a action, crime thriller. Our target audience would be mainly males from the age of 16-40, the reason we say males is because they seem watch more of these types of movies than women do. The main narrative technique would be Barthes enigma theory, where the movie opens with a bunch of gangsters/crooks huddled around a table/crate in a dark room/warehouse who are planning a robbery/heist. The viewer immediatley wonders what is going on, what the plan is and how it will go, thus drawing them in. The general mood of the movie will be a dark and suspicous one, similar to alot of crime related movies, especially those from the 40's (although we have not yet decided on a specific theme such as italian mobsters). In our group there is Phill Scargill and George Devereaux.
