To start off with a man kissing his mum goodbye, and then as he walks out of the door he lights up a cigar and walks towards a group of men on the street corner. They then share some dialogue throughout their group about "did you get it done?" They all look the bar opposite and a man walks out of the bar and gets into his car, the car blows up. All of the street goes crazy and police sirens and ambulances are heard, but the group of men calmly walk away.
What worked well?
My group told me that they liked my idea because it shows that gangsters have a family life, and are not completely bad like most films portray them to be. It also suggests that there may be a reason behind why they are a gangster such as money problems in the family. They said that they thought it was well thought through and would be an effective opening to a film.
Could it be even better?
They said that to make it even better I could have added in some classic religious music whilst the man was walking to the group of men, as this would have connoted that like stereotypical gangsters, he was actually religious. Also music tends to be more effective than silence in most cases.
