The short will consist of themes based on revenge, friendship and hardship. We have two friends where they train at an academy which specializes in martial arts. Friend 1 has an outgoing care free personality while Friend 2 has a serious introverted demeanor. Friend 2 is an orphan who lost his parents when he was young, his goal is to take revenge on the culprits who took his parents life's. Likewise to Friend 1, he is an orphan but focus' on trying to live a life of serenity.
Our short will have parallel editing to explain the story. The flashbacks will consist of scenes from when both students were good friends and working hard at the academy. This sequence will eventually lead to Friend 2 treacherous act of abandoning everyone. Shots of the KO's/deceased students from the academy will be shown and we're given the oppressed reaction of Friend 1.
In the present, we'll have Friend 1 trying to find Friend 2 with many shots of the environment and close up of his feet. A mysterious eerie soundtrack will be implemented while more flash backs are continuously edited in of Friend 1 and 2's past.
Eventually they both meet. Extreme close ups of Friend 2's eyes will be shot to indicate the hostility in his emotions. Shot-reverse-shot will be used to show there's conversation. The framing will be covered mostly by Friend 2's body with Friend 1 far in the distance. A variety of shots consisting of long and close ups will come together in order to build anticipation before they fight.
