For our piece we decided to create a primarily crime drama film, but to also have elements of mystery to it. we also want it to be set in a dystopian future. The crime genre is a genre that interests us as a group and therefore we thought it would be best we chose something we all enjoy as it would allow us to bring up more interesting ideas and take inspiration from some of our favourite types of films to create a successful opening. It would allow us to explore various films from the genres to use aspects in our own piece, such as Blade Runner and Sin City, and a number of older crime films In order to build and write our film so that it matches the generic conventions found in this genre, we will plan to include using props associated with crime or violence as well as unique costumes which convey our theme of the sad and dull world in which our film will take place.
Stills from Blade Runner and Sin City, two of the many films we will take inspiration from when constructing our film
The choice to have elements of mystery to our piece and use some generic conventions from the mystery genre is because we thought it would help us to tell a more interesting crime story. It would allow us to create more suspense and potential plot twists that would change the pace of the story and keep audiences interested, but without moving away from the primary genre (crime) completely.
this will help us when creating our own film because we will have a better vision of what we want to create in terms of our opening.
