The film that my group decided to make was actually based on a true story. I would like to describe the plot to my readers and let them know how we plan to put this onto a screen. Javen is currently a sophomore wrestler at North Central College and he is having a great season while training hard. He has his sights set one winning a national title, but there's one opponent that he's particularly worried about: a rival wrestler named Hayden who beat him earlier in the season. Despite his loss to Hayden, Javen tries to stay focused and determined to be the best wrestler he can be. He also studies Hayden's style and technique, looking for weaknesses to exploit. As the season progresses, Javen faces many other opponents and wins all of those matches be he can't shake the memory of losing to Kyle. Finally, the national tournament comes around and the day to revenge his loss to Hayden is going to be in the National Finals. This match is very intense with both wrestlers giving it their all. At first, it seems like Kyle has the upper hand but Javen doesn't give up. He remembers the strategies he's been practicing to use against Kyle and eventually catches Kyle in a tricky move and manages to pin him down. This victory is a big relief for Javen, who has went through tough training, both mentally and physically. Javen was so ecstatic and grateful for all the hard work he put in throughout the season.
In our development of the plot, we wanted to involve certain characteristics that follow a common sports film genre. The three things we put our main focus on was the character development of Javen, the training and preparation that Javen went through, and the big match at the end. The character development of Javen will give the audience a good identity of who to root for throughout the film. Since our film was a short film, it was very easy for the audience to tell who the story is about since he was in every scene. The character development is following Javen through his journey onto the other aspect we focused on: the training and preparation for the big match. Javen went through rigorous training and to get ready for that big match at the end. Flowing right from the character development to the training and preparation comes the big match at the end that will have the audience invested into what happens at the end of the story. We had a traditional ending with Javen winning his final match. Which is what happens in real life as well. We tried to do our best filming, cinematography, and editing throughout this film yet we know it was not perfect considering we are all very new to film making. We feel as if our film flowed well and we put in good effort to make it all come to life on the screen.
