I need to start brainstorming my actual story, and translate them into storyboards before we get any shooting done. I've been discussing with Amelia for the character structures, and instead of going for the 'trying to be too clever' idea of swapping their archetype roles (Detective has the features of a femme fatale, and vice versa) we've decided to exaggerate their character traits even more, just so it's completely overt. For example the Femme Fatale would be incredibly promiscuous but also incredibly smart and manipulative, you get the rough idea. I need jot down the characters I want and discuss this further with Amelia.
Of course Keir is my pro-tag for this, so I've been drawing up some costume ideas for what I think woild express his character best. I need to do some visual research in the sense of watching a few more film noir films (I'll post some links up on here shortly) to get a good idea of structure. As well as look up theorists too. Again, I want this to have an experimental twist, so I will be using mostly Black and white and maybe one or two colours to give it a different edge, long cuts and shakey cameras too can add a sense of realism and dramatic quality.
Again, if you want to suggest something please do!
Jamie
