In general terms our idea, which was developed based on our work from the previous weeks, is now about a small town and their designated Killer who kills everyone that brakes the peace of the town. But everyone living in the town including the Priest is okay with this. In the rest of the movie tow people would move to the local town that brake the peace but survive the assassination attempt and then have to try and stop the tyranny.
During our chat with our teacher and the professional camera operator we amongst things like structure, and themes we talked about do-ability of our idea. A important part of our idea is when the killer walks into the church soaked in blood as he just killed someone. The problem here might be that the people in charge of the church wouldn’t favour us shooting a scene with blood and knifes inside of a church. Therefore, I suggested that he simply takes of his apron and lays down his knife. We then came up with the idea that the reasoning for his actions would be that he respects the church.
