Opening Titles Experiment



We experimented with Live Type as we were interested in using more advanced software this time, however because we haven't used this before we found it quite difficult to use and may need more practise using it. We experimented with different fonts and colours but for some reason they wouldn't work for us and we didn't know how to save it. We decided not to use opening credits as we feel they don't suit the tone of the film.

Ecstasy Animatic

Ecstasy Script




EXTERIOR
Josh and Angel, two students are in college, texting each other about their antics at the weekend, having a catch up. Both in separate parts in the college, then agreeing to meet up later on.

            EXTERIOR
Angel is then seated outside the college in their smoking area waiting for Josh. He then comes from the college doors walking towards Angel shouting “Hello!” and then gaining speed towards her.

       EXTERIOR
Both of them become deep in conversation talking about the weekend and reminiscing what they were texting each other about earlier on in the day. As the conversation gets stronger, Angel begins to gain a look in her face, which suggests she is doubting what Josh is telling her, this is then when Angel challenges Josh to what he is telling her and finally offers him some drugs she has on her.

      EXTERIOR
Josh then begins to walk away and suggest they go else where and out of college grounds, still talking about the weekend and how much he did. This is then when Angel stops him once they’ve left college grounds and threatens the fact he is lying and offers him drugs again, Josh turns them down again and tells Angel “It has no effect on me anymore, I’ll need something stronger” hoping she lets it go and carries on with the conversation. However, Angel does the opposite and actually give Josh something stronger, which she has on her. Now Josh cannot say “No”, and takes what Angel has given him.

     EXTERIOR
Angel and Josh have just taken the drugs and are sat down in a near field just enjoying the thrill of what they have done. Angel opens her mouth and takes a pill from her tongue and hands it to Josh, even though that Angel has realized Josh has had enough, because he said “Yes” she doesn’t do otherwise.

     EXTERIOR
Josh is having the time of his life and so is Angel while on this ‘high’ with each other. However, Josh begins to become a little bit off and ‘out of reach’ from Angel.

     EXTERIOR
Josh begins to become low and very off character. Angel notices this and asks Josh about it, asking if he is okay and if he feels alright, placing her hands on him and shaking him to get his attention. Josh takes this in the wrong way and becomes violent with Angel, grabbing her wrists and shouting at her “Get off me!” This scares Angel and she shouts at him back telling Josh to calm down, but this makes Josh worse.

     EXTERIOR
Josh is holding Angel at the wrists as he is becoming more and more violent with her. Josh quickly grabs Angel’s neck as she is in such a struggle and he begins to strangle her and shakes her around. Angel tries to stop Josh but is slowly becoming unable to.

     EXTERIOR
Once Josh has killed Angel, he slowly stands up and looks over her body, however Josh is still really ‘out of it’ and doesn’t seem to be coming down from it. He begins to panic and stress over what he has done and starts to run away.

     EXTERIOR
Josh is running away from Angel’s body and doesn’t look back, panting and trying to understand what has physically happened. He stops and looks up towards the sky, heavily breathing and closes his eyes.
