This was are initial first scene. However, after filming it we decided that we wanted to change the scene because we didn't think that it worked well with our film and it gave too much away. Moreover, as a group we felt that Leon falling on the floor made it too comedic and drew attention away from the story line. Also, when we compared this scene to our research on psychological thrillers we noticed that we had introduced too many characters in the opening scene as most of the films that we looked at stuck to introducing 1-2 characters. We uploaded the video onto http://www.youtube.com/ and http://www.facebook.com/ as we wanted to know if other people agreed with our opinions. These are the questions that we asked:
These are some of the comments that we received:
The comments that we recieved confirmed our opinions on the fall being too comedic and not fitting in with the genre. Therefore, we changed this scene to just Horatio following Mia as it was more simplistic because the audience were not being bombarded with characters and works better with our genre. Moreover, the first comment we recieved was also helpful as it showed that we had effectively conveyed that Horatio was an isolated member of society.
