Remake of the breakfast club ana

The Breakfast Club remake
This is mind map on 'Planning' I did before I recorded  'The Breakfast Club' with my group to add ideas and to be prepared for when I was going to film the short remake with my group.


 As a group we were told to record a remake of The Breakfast club opening. In preparation of this I did some individual planning to allow our short remake of the breakfast club be successful.

In played Ally 'The Basketcase' , the loner ,the weirdo and the bag lady . A silent girl, who most people cannot figure out. Whenever she talks, it is usually as an act of self defense. Suffering from chronic boredom and loneliness, she is extremely reserved.She spends most of the time in the library because she has nothing better to do. the movie show how teenagers deal with life's pressure  in different ways. All the teenagers also thought that their problem was the worst and by forming their group together they reveal their souls making them feel stronger able to overcome their problems

 I have decided to bring in costumes such as a long black jumper , a black top  and  a long grey side bag as  in the movie Ally is wearing  sober coloured clothing . I thought the use of the colour black and grey would represent her character well and show that she is less popular compared to the other characters such as 'The Princess' and 'The Athlete '. 

We  have brought props such as toy cars as we couldn't afford actual cars for our short opening , so we thought this would be a creative  and imaginative way to show the popular teenagers being dropped in flashy cars to High School .

We also filmed a montage  of our own school . We used the halls, canteen , lockers and clock to create the teen - high school atmosphere. The effect of a  close up of the clock in our opening gives the impression that something good or bad will happen to these teenagers , as they are impatient to wait any longer. We also used a long shot , when we filmed outside  the front of the school building to show where the location is set in  and immediately shows that its a film based on High school .

We also used created a  script which was used in the original movie  to allow our speech to be fluent and clear when recording different scenes.
