Account of our first production meeting

We changed and adapted our idea since our powerpoint because we realised that the idea would have been unrealistic. One of the main problems was that we needed a lot of grown up actors, and we didn't have enough adults to perform these roles, since most of them would have had to be teaching during the day. We also realised that the location would have been too difficult to film at, originally we wanted to film at Gatwick airport which we weren't allowed to do, unless we paid them a large sum of money, which we didn't have.

So this would have been more time consuming and a lot more pressure on all of us, which could have ended in a bad shoot for the day. So instead of doing a drug deal in a car outside Gatwick, we decided to scrap the whole idea and go with a Military mans child and wife getting abducted and held hostage for a ransom of top secret information.

So that in the end of our opening sequence the audience would be left with a cliff hanger, because the terrorist group kill the wife and child, so the audience are left with the question, is the military man going to accept his defeat or will he take vengeance? We took some ideas from the film Abduction and Taken, this gave us an idea for our opening sequence.
