Preliminary Task

This is our preliminary task of a character walking into a room and having a conversation with another character. We went for the storyline of someone being held hostage to try and make it more interesting to watch as the basic story of the video isn't really very interesting. We didn't let the audience know what the girl was being held hostage for until towards the end of the clip to keep them guessing and the fact that it was something quite ridiculous gives it a bit of comedy about it.
This was a really quick exercise allowing us to experiment with different angles and shots to get used to using the camera such as the close ups on the hands opening the door. These type of shots don't give away too much of what the characters are like or where the plot may go and therefore might keep the audience more interested which is a good technique to use when creating our own 2 minute opening.
