The Story Line

After a lot of talking Cami and I decided how we want our story to go!

First, we are going to introduce the first two characters, by showing their morning routine or basically them getting ready for school. In this time the audience will be able to see the different houses and social classes they are from. In these scenes we will incorporate many low angles, meaning just showing our character's feet and a lot of medium shots. 

We came to the conclusion that our characters were going to meet at a football game and after that, they, both of them were only going to keep interacting in school. One day school was canceled due to a pandemic outbreak this is going to separate both our love interests since they didn't have any other way to communicate other than in school, they never exchanged phone numbers or social media information, and now they couldn't leave their houses because of the virus that was going around.

This is the problem they are going to encounter that is going to put to question their love and make the audience start to wonder if they are ever going to be able to see each other ever again. 

The two characters lived really far so there was no way to meet again. Daniela lived in a faraway small neighborhood while Micheal lived in a rich neighborhood. This made it even harder for them to be able to ever cross paths. 

So this is basically the main plot of the story and then it will continue expanding to show how they met and how they finally found a way back to each other even if this pandemic was keeping them away.

Outline:

1. We start with a medium shot of both of them getting out of bed, we are going to try to set like both events are happening at the same time so we will use cross-cut editing.

2. Then they will proceed to the shower before going to school we will show a low angel of just their feet.

3. After they get out they will go and change we will do a low angle of these two and just after proceed to a medium shot once they have changed.

4. Medium shot of looking in the mirror, for example, Daniela doing her make-up.

5. Then we will proceed to show a long shot of them going down the stairs.

6. Here is where the constant cross-cutting wills stop and will start to show Daniela talking to her family eating breakfast and then proceed to show Michael's family.

This is just a rough draft of the idea we have, but we still have many things to edit and decide but these are things that just come along with the process. We are trying to use this film start to show our both love interests and also introduce their different environments and lifestyles. There are still many shots and scenes to add but this is kind of the main idea of what we are trying to show.
