#15 Brainstorm/Ideas

 The film my group is working on is a drama about love and loss. The story is about a married couple whose lives change after a tragic accident. The opening scene starts with a Formula 4 race playing on the television. The husband is a race car driver, and his wife is watching the race from their house. The sounds of the race are exciting, while the wife sits quietly, focused on the screen. 

During the race, the husband's car crashes badly. The car spins over and over the track until it finally stops. As the car is spinning, the sound of the race fades away as a heartbeat sounds start occurring. As the memories start to appear in the husband's mind slowly as he dies. These memories show happy moments from their relationship, such as laughing, together and spending quality time with each other. This helps the audience understand how close they were. 

After the crash, it becomes clear that the husband died and is no longer breathing. The wife reacts with deep sadness and shock. She cries and feels very alone. Later in the opening, a neighbor comes to the wife's door and brings cookies to help comfort her. This small action shows how people try to help others during hard times, even when they do not know what to say. 

My role in this project would be the wife. As I play a huge but also small role compared to the husband Gustavo Mendoza. My role is to show emotion on how the setting would feel and to make the audience feel and understand the pain of losing someone so soon.
