Before we began filming our opening scene we needed to have a clear idea on the synopsis of our whole film. This was essential as it allows us to give away clues of what is going to happen in the remaining of our film in our opening and allows us to have a clear idea on the characters personalities and therefore how to portray them as well as a clear idea on what is going to happen in each part of the film making it easier to create our opening.
Here is a brief outline to our synopsis:
Beginning
Equilibrium Set, Harvey and Katie introduced separately through their morning routine
Characters are introduced/ Personalities made obvious
Characters bump into each other
Characters are then at a date, and both get stood up, the couple interact
The Middle
Relationship develops
Girl’s sister (Janine) gets a job at the same place as male character
Janine andHarvey spend a lot of time together
Janine walks in on Janine and Harvey drinking together and gets the wrong idea (Disruption)
Katie and Harvey do not contact each other, yet still think about each other
Harvey goes to Katie’s house, brings singing lepricorn to sing her a romantic comedy (Attempt to restore)
Katie slams door in face
Katie constantly thinks about Harvey
Janine meets with Katie, and tells her about how she got the wrong idea, and explains that they were planning a romantic surprise for Katie
Ending
Typically ‘happy ending’ (Restoration of the equilibrium)
Harvey romantically proposes to Katie, by writing (in flowers) will you marry me on the ground (in a field)
Ends with a perfect wedding, and the couple drive past where they first met and smile to themselves.
