Brainstorm-Childrens Film

This is our first brainstorming session we talked about how a children's film has to be light hearted and have a some humor in it. We decided our production could not be too serous and that was one of the ways we would make sure it was appropriate for children. We were considering using stop motion for our credit sequence because it would allow us to use bright colour and keep it childish but with the idea we agreed on we decided it would not be in keeping with the genre. The title of whatever we made would have to be catchy. We did consider briefly doing a comedy about real life funny situations like a more child friendly inbetweeners but decided that would not be hard to make entertaining to a younger audience. We also considered a fantasy adventure where a ordinary person finds they have special powers and there life is turned upside down as they have to save their parents but we decided not to in the end as it was not something we were interested in and it would be to hard to film considering the limited time and resources we had. We chose in the end to do a spy film as it is a genre we are all very familiar with and have grown up watching. The music we chose will be in the Mission Impossible style because it is a well known spy movie theme music and it will link well with the genre.
