 Transition to Portfolio Project

One approach that I plan on using is having a more dark tone to a beginning to a horror film. For the opening of this film I will include a lot of costume design such as makeup up in order to make the affects more realistic. In addition I will be using color schemes like black, red, and grey through out the opening. I will probably only have two character that will be in the opening. One will be the victim and the other the predator. For the predator I will have him wear a costume of my creation to make look more frightening, most likely be wearing something with dark color schemes. Moreover, I will also incorporate props that will have to do with a weapon to protect one self or attack somebody. 

Another approach that may take place is a opening film to a sci-fi movie, most likely extra terrestrials. A lot of light will be used in order to represent the extra terrestrials. Therefore, I will be using different lighting schemes throughout the production. The main character will be a teenager who seems to be innocent, curious, and a bit frightened. The tone of the film will be a mysterious tone since we do not quite know what the being that is shown in a shadow formed by the light of their spaceship.

I just finished the music marketing project where we had to promote a new band that we created. I feel like this project helped me prepare for the portfolio project because the process is similar to the portfolio project but instead, it is a a lot smaller project. Therefore, now I feel more comfortable to start the portfolio project. I now also have an idea of how I will approach and start this project. For example, I will start by typing down my ideas and drawing a storyboard to get new ideas to formulate. I will also start researching different productions from the selected genres I plan on producing so that I get more info and ideas on what I need to incorporate into my production.
