A Boxing Movie

YES, I want to do a boxing movie. Tomas and I had talked over some burgers about what we thought would be cool. We came up with an intro where in an empty grass field, there would be a circle of cars pointing in with their lights on to a pair of boxers in the middle fighting. Around the cars, there would be a bunch of people yelling and fighting and betting on which fighter is going to win. The shot would begin from above, with a drone that Tomas owns. The drone would then spiral down into the circle and continue filming around the fighters as they are fighting. There would then be a point of view shot, where the viewer can see the other boxer throwing jabs and punches at the camera. There would then be a very large Boom, and the screen would go black. The next shot would be the fighter laying on his bed. this is where we got kind of lost though, we didn't know if we wanted the next scene to be set before the fight, and make the rest of the film about his journey leading up to the fight, or if we wanted to pick up after the fight, and make the rest of the movie about him working harder to win his next fight. I personally think that the first option is the best, and that it would be cool to start with a hard beginning. We also spoke about making it a memory, but starting the movie in the time before the fight, so basically, not knowing where the memory came from. I like that idea too, but I feel like it would be hard to explain this. I really like the whole concept of a boxing movie, and feel like there is a lot of room for change if we want to do something different, or incorporate other group member's ideas. I'm looking forward to trying to convince my group members to make a boxing movie.
