Our childrens film opening sequence is about Batman and Robin, however Batman's not the usual superhero that we all know. We have decided to make Batman the villan and Robin become the super hero who saves the day. This is known as challenging the steriotype of superheros, the usual superhero is friendly, helpful and an idol to everyone. Alothough because of the main super hero Batman, no one looks up to his sidekick Robin. As a consequence we thought that we would make Robin shine and become the superhero he should be. But by doing so we have changed Batman, Batman turns into the villain by steeling and committing crime, allowing Robin to save the day.
We are all going to have a chance to film our opening sequence as there is only three of us and everyone is a character within the film. For example i shall film Batman and Robin while they act and produce a scene. We shall then change round for instance when im actiong with Robin aka Luka, Colin aka Batman will have a chance to film. This allows us to share the amount of work and have an opportunity to show our filming skills we have gained. We decided to use all of us within the film as it would be more interesting to watch which the added character. it also draws the audience in to the mystery of the fortune teller being assosiated with Batman and Robin.
As we are all acting in our film we are all responsible for our own characters needs. I shall bring in the jewells, the crystal ball and my costume as this is what i shall be wearing and will need as i am the fortune teller. I am also bringing the jewwels and valuables as i am the only girl out of the group and who owns jewellery. Colin is responsible for his Batman costume and a sward as he is Batman and the film wouldnt work without his costume. And finally Luka will be bringing in his Robin outfit and a sward too, as the swards are important for their battle scene. We are all bringing in our own costumes and props as we are responsible for our own characters and are sharing the responsibility, making it more likely that we shall remember what we need and its also easier because one person hasn't got to bring in everyones costumes as this would be heavy and difficult to carry.
We have decided that the best option to film would be around the college, this would allow us to film as many takes as we need to make our film the best it can be. We have located our film within a building and within the woodland areas around the college. The building resembles where Batman and Robin are usually filmed, however creating a twist the use of the woods. The woods is to create tention an myetery for example when Robin meets the Fortune teller. We do not need permising to film around these areas as we are not interupting another class or anyone else.
In conclusion me and my group used the idea of Batman and Robin as it is a well known cartoon for children and Batman has has many successfil films. However all of these films and cartoons have always been about Batman saving the world and Robin has always been his sidekick. The use of a fight and the different location of the woods makes the film seem mysterious and more interesting. Therefore i believe that our idea would be very successful as it is different and unexpected to the stereotype of superheros. This is why our film contains Batman as the villain and Robin as the superhero, this also allows children to see that they can and are important to the world, and can make a difference just like Robin.
