Hello everyone! Today I will be discussing the inspiration for our film movie.
The first inspiration we had for our film opening was the movie "Tarot". When we were discussing our ideas, Aleena brought up how we could do a game like Mafia, that ends up happening in real life. She got this inspiration from Tarot, where characters have their horoscopes read from a deck of tarot cards, and what their fate suggests is how they die. We used this movie as out inspiration for the overall topic of our film opening, and instead of the killer being superstitious, we made the killer a real person. We also made the cards not resemble anything, and rather the choices of who gets killed by the Mafia that determines who kills them. This goes into the topic of what really controls your fate.
Another inspiration that we had for our film opening was the TV show "Pretty Little Liars". During filming, I brought up how the pilot episode of Pretty Little Liars gives off the same mood and vibe as the film opening, as the girls in the show are having a sleepover when suddenly, one of their friends go missing. I then showed the group the clip of the first 2 minutes of Pretty Little Liars - and we began to use it as inspiration. The lighting In the pilot, they have dark lighting, and used candles as their main lighting. We then took inspiration for that during filming, and used candle light as well. They also used flashlights, but we did not have any, so we could not use that. We also loved the sound, it had a suspenseful part to it, but it was not full on "SCREAM" like horror sounds. However, instead of Maddie going missing, we had her getting killed. Also, in Pretty Little Liars it is unknown for a few seasons what happened to their friend Alison, and that is the main plot of the story. However, in our film we had it known to the audience that Maddie is killed, the real mystery is who killed her.
Here are some Pretty Little Liars Pictures:
