Our initial idea was a comedy revolving around two young entrepreneurs. We thought of the idea that, the characters could be pitching a new style of Mp3 player named the "Podi" a deliberate spoof of an"ipod". During the pitch there was going to be a series of disasters. Instead of 'cool' background music playing from a CD player "Tragedy" by the pop-band "Steps" was going to accidently play. However, after going through our ideas we felt this idea would be too heavily dialouge based. We also felt that it didn't feel like a film opening, but rather a later scene in a film. We therefore decided we were not going to use this idea, but were still keen to do a comedy.
Step Brothers film opening
This concept was heavily influenced by the film "Step Brothers". The film revolves around two brothers who are extreamly immature and flawed. In one scene Brennan and Dale take job interviews, for which they perform very poorly, being rude to their two potential employers, they also produce a business pitch which goes awfully wrong. We felt it was extreamly funny and interesting. However we noticed that there wasnt a great deal of different camera angles. This contributed to the final decision not to produce this idea. We noticed that on most openings to comedies there isn't initially much humour.
