Reflexive Analysis Begins

For my A2 project I chose to make an opening sequence from a film lasting between 3-5 minutes, instead of making a short film so I could cause an emotional response for the audience. In my work I chose to work individually so that I would have full control over planning, directing and editing my project. The way I made sure I kept up with my planning was by using my blog: www.bethanyhironsfilma2.blogspot.com. I decided to make a film that could fit into the thriller genre, but also with a dramatic edge. The title of my film is "The Drug Squad" this represents the police force that he works for, but also the specific narcotics department that we see him in within the narrative. I found inspiration for this storyline by looking into the tv series CSI, this storyline was done within an episode and I felt that I could elaborate this into a film. I had already decided on doing a storyline that involved a police officer, however, I had not thought about using the drama genre.
