Project idea and Major Inspiration
Portfolio Idea:
To start off, the title of our film opening is named, Exclusive.
Our film opening is all about a teenager/young adult that is trying to make it big in the house music/DJ industry. And he is that good, the main conflict is just that he is too young. The film opening begins with a flyer to sign up for a very popular DJ contest that he is holding. It's one of his dreams to be performing there but on the flyer it reads, 18+. He is too young and isn't able to join the contest. Although he is upset about this, he still finds all his passion and love in what he does. He continues to create music but then later on he gets influenced to purchase something illegal but will get him into the contest, a fake ID. He surrounds himself with his closest friends that support him always and try to help him make it big within the industry.
Major Inspiration:
The major inspiration for the opening was just artists like John Summit, Its murph, and Calvin Harris. When I listen to their music I just feel relieved and open. I wanted to incorporate this feeling within the opening. In the production opening, the feeling he gets when he creates music is supposed to represent this feeling, but also that's what his friends are for too. Because although the music makes him feel free, his friends bring out that feeling even more. They bring a sense of hope and happiness and he loves to be around them and music at the same time.
Another major inspiration for the opening was the movie Waves. Originally I thought we would initiate the opening with the same opening as Waves. But, we decided to incorporate a similar scene at the end. We weren't sure how or when we wanted to include it in our opening but we knew we needed to add it in somewhere.
