So...what's the story??

After some long thinking and a copious amount of back and forth decisions, we have finally finalized our story and how our film opening is going to play out. To start off, our film title is Blood Date.

Our story will be taking place in present day Fort Lauderdale, or more specifically Weston, Florida. We decided to stay local for a couple reasons: don't have to travel far for film production and our story can happen pretty much anywhere. Our story will feature a female protagonist who is searching to go on a blind date. Our antagonist is going to be male with the same interests, but with a twist. He turns out to be a murderer. Not only is he a murderer but he is also a cannibal. The protagonist does not find out that the antagonist is a murdering cannibal until more than half of the film has already occurred but clues are revealed throughout the film. In the film the protagonist and antagonist meet through a dating website that sets up blind dates. The two hit it off and go on more dates together throughout the film but then the protagonist ends up doing wrong toward the antagonist therefore sparking the murderous cannibal inside of him. In all his rage the antagonist goes after the girl and kills her for what she has done to him. Being overly stressed about this whole situation he eats the girl's corpse but saves her heart creating the symbolism of the protagonist breaking his heart.

The final scene of the film would be the same scene as shown in the film opening but the film opening utilizes numerous close-up shots to create mystery. The final scene would show the literal and figurative big picture.

We have our story but some frames still need to be drawn for our storyboard. Here is a new update:
