HELLO, this post is going to be sort of a mental map of my first development idea for my opening.
I would like to make my film opening about a 16 year old Colombian girl named Camila that is nerdy, plays an instrument, and has never talked to a teenage boy, who makes small changes to her self image (clothing, attitude, etc.) and eventually decides to get a facial surgery to make herself like other high school girls her age after many failed attempts at changing herself on a smaller spectrum so that she could fit in and be seen as "prettier". This would be an interpretation of how many teenage girls in Colombia change themselves to fit in or be accepted by others around them by asking their parents for permission to get plastic surgery (specifically rhinoplasty) as a birthday gift, regardless of what measures they would have to go through.
I would like to start my story with the girl’s face wrapped up in bandages on a hospital bed so the viewer knows straight away what happens at the end and they start off the film questioning how it is that the girl got to that point. This also introduces some of the main aspects to the viewer.
**Perfect moment to use a temporal graphic match** could be the girl lying on the hospital bed with her eyes closed to her on her bed at home waking up on an extreme close up when her alarm goes off. This would bring the viewer back to the beginning.
On the first scene after the hospital bed, I would include her room, which is very basic and bland, with decorations that are only in black and white. She will have a detailed schedule of what to do along her walls, which throughout the move she while slowly stop caring of and leaves off not completing it. She also has many books stacked up on her desk, with reading glasses topping off this mountain. She looks over and grabs her glasses. *eyeline match*
