Planning

Over the holidays, I have started to think up some scenarios and also some actors.

Mr Earl managed to find me a great link for the usual suspect flashbacks, which shows you what I am planning on doing for the flashback scene.

The above links shows you the flashbacks/reflection as the criminals are being arrested, however my flashback scene would be each criminal doing a short crime, outlining their are of crime. 

I particularly like the parts between each flashback as the first one ends with a gun shot kind of noise, which draws the audience to the guns that're surrounding the criminal, making them link that he was being shot, however it was actually part of the next flash
back, showing that it was a part of the garage that the next criminal was being arrested in. At the end of the second flashback, he throws a cloth to the camera, linking between the next opening sequence. Also, as the second villan reaches under the car, the audience are unaware to what he is going to do as you can hear the sound of some 'cocking a gun', which allows the audience the think that he's reaching for a gun, however he only reaches for a cloth, leaving the audience in suspense. 

A hybrid is slightly shown as there is also some humour provided as the men are being arrested. The first villan says "Christ, don't you fucking guys ever sleep?". The second clip says "Sure you brought enough guys?". 

This links with previous films that i've analysed as most of them provide humour within a serious scene. 

I very much like the idea of the flashbacks, I think that it is very inventive and it allows the audience to escape from their every day lives.
