Re-making the title sequence of The Breakfast Club

Aim: we aim to reproduce and recreate the title sequence of The Breakfast Club.

Props we'll use:

• Basket-case: dark clothing
• Athlete: sports coat, trainers
• Princess: earrings, watch, gloves, bag
• Criminal: black clothing, sunglasses
• Brain: hat, puffer jacket, glasses(masking tape), books

Planning decisions:
Filming: 9:00am-10:00am
We aren't going to copy the original Breakfast Club, but we've decided to introduce the settings, by using a variety of shots showing the interior and exterior of the school. We've decided to cut out the scene with the teacher, as we want to focus on portraying the 5 different stereotypes; The Brain, The Princess, The Basket-Case, The Criminal and The Athlete.

Editing: 10:00am-12:00pm
We are going to use Final Cut Pro to edit our opening. We want to show the titles on a black screen with yellow/orange writing, paying homage to the original opening.

Storyboard:

The 'basket-case' will be shot with long shots at high angle so that she can appear to be timid and isolated

The 'Criminal' will be shot close up and at a low angle as he is portrayed as intimidating

The 'Athlete' will be shot at a high angle. Although he is the head of the the football team, he is still seen as inferior by the criminal.

We are going to film the 'Princess' at low angles to show her sense of authority.

The 'brain' is going to be shot at a high angle to make him look small and inferior
