As a group, we all agreed that we wanted to create a mystery/enigma themed film. We relished in the idea of creating a film in the style of Film Noir, as it was a style of films we all enjoyed. We began to look for inspirations.
A key inspiration we found was the notorious gang lead Al Capone(1930's) and his signature dress to impress way of going about things. We immediately saw him as a great example to base the villain of our story on. And as we built on the idea of gangs and Al Capone, we began to draw out the world in which we wanted the plot to inhabit. We then thought of well know gang-related cities, such as New York and Chicago. Although, we still believed that it would be a good idea to directly set the plot in this already existing cities. This would allow us to use existing history around them and create our own history. After that, we began to look at possible characters and started merging the ideas for Film Noir and Al Capone's empire.
Thoughtful and creative work.
