Here they started with an establishing shot, often applied to the beginning of a scene to show the viewer where and when the scene is taking place. As we already know, in a script, a scene always starts with its description. Here it is;
So if you have to do an outline, you should mention almost everything on the first take. Attention! Everyone has their way and approach to script decoupage. So here, for this establishing shot, there are pretty much all the elements; we have the curtains, the red lanterns, the roof, and Sea in the background. Once you see these elements, you know this scene is not happening in an apartment in new york. You see what I mean.
For the frame, they opted for reasonably elemental composition, the rule of thirds, which places the two subjects on the left side of the screen, less lit than the background, thus leaving a space on the right side of the frame for the liveliness of the scenery. Then we have the golden color, which perfectly complements the blue of the sea. It is imperative to combine all his information in one shot to let the viewer know where and when the scene is taking place. Moving on to the following scenes, still with Bond.

It began with the forging of the Great Rings. Three were given to the Elves, immortal, wisest and fairest of all beings. Seven to the Dwarf-Lords, great miners and craftsmen of the mountain halls. And nine, nine rings were gifted to the race of Men, who above all else desire power. For within these rings was bound the strength and the will to govern each race. But they were all of them deceived, for another ring was made. Deep in the land of Mordor, in the Fires of Mount Doom, the Dark Lord Sauron forged a master ring, and into this ring he poured his cruelty, his malice and his will to dominate all life.
Sauron, enemy of the free peoples of Middle-Earth, was defeated. The Ring passed to Isildur, who had this one chance to destroy evil forever, but the hearts of men are easily corrupted. And the ring of power has a will of its own. It betrayed Isildur, to his death.
And some things that should not have been forgotten were lost. History became legend. Legend became myth. And for two and a half thousand years, the ring passed out of all knowledge. Until, when chance came, it ensnared another bearer.

I had this intro class with Ashley and I am SO glad that I did! She is energetic, informative, and realistic about the V.O. world.

During the shooting of Skyfall, a seemingly minor wardrobe decision led to an expensive and time-consuming fix in post-production. This incident could have been easily avoided with proper pre-production planning and a script breakdown, which is where Filmustage comes in.
In Skyfall, Daniel Craig, who played James Bond, wore a pair of leather gloves in a crucial casino scene. Craig had found these gloves during a shopping trip and asked director Sam Mendes if he could wear them. Unfortunately, this seemingly insignificant choice created a significant plot inconsistency. The scene involved Bond's gun, which could only be activated by his fingerprints. Wearing gloves made this impossible, rendering the entire scene illogical.
The filmmakers realized the error only during the editing process. Reshooting the entire scene would have cost millions, so they opted for an expensive digital solution: removing the gloves from Craig's hands in post-production.
This costly mistake could have been avoided with Filmustage's AI-powered script breakdown and scheduling platform. By thoroughly analyzing the script and identifying potential inconsistencies, the Filmustage App could have flagged the fingerprint-activated gun and the gloves before the shooting even began. Such an alert would have prompted the filmmakers to reconsider the wardrobe choice or make necessary script adjustments.
Filmustage's pre-production tools not only streamline the filmmaking process but also help minimize costly oversights. The platform's ability to dissect scripts, identify potential issues, and generate comprehensive breakdowns enables filmmakers to address potential problems in the planning stage. By automating the script breakdown process, Filmustage saves time, money, and ensures a smoother production.
In the fast-paced world of filmmaking, it's easy to overlook details that can later cause significant problems. By incorporating Filmustage's pre-production platform into their workflow, filmmakers can mitigate the risk of costly mistakes like the glove incident in Skyfall.
While director Sam Mendes (American Beauty, Road to Perdition, Away We Go) has done a lot of press conferences for his upcoming James Bond movie, Skyfall, I'm pretty sure what you're about to read is the first interview with any substance. Usually, various press conferences for the film (including the one he did Sunday afternoon in Istanbul, Turkey) are about the city they're filming in and what is it like to work with Daniel Craig or Naomie Harris.
However, on Sunday afternoon, shortly after the press conference, I participated in a small roundtable interview with Mendes where he actually went into detail about the movie. He talked about how the script benefited from the production being pushed back, how they landed Javier Bardem and what type of villain he's going to play, how Skyfall will show more of Bond and M's relationship/backstory, how he loves what The Dark Knight and Bourne have done in terms of main characters, how audiences have embraced movies that go darker and more personal, the challenge of filming action scenes, and finding new ways to tell a Bond story. Hit the jump to listen or read the interview.
As usual, I'm offering you two ways to get this interview: you can either click here for the audio, or the full transcript is below. Skyfall opens October 26 in the UK and November 9 in the US.
In the early stages, Silva's introduction to the story was originally pretty cut and dry, according to Mendes. "When [screenwriter] John Logan first delivered this scene, Bond was knocked out on the yacht by a heavy and woke up to find Silva sitting opposite him," Mendes explained on the "Skyfall" commentary. But when the director began working through the script himself, he started to envision a very different presentation. "I had a very strong sense that we needed to give [Silva] an entrance, and that that entrance would lead into the speech ... and I felt that we needed to do it in one [shot]."
"One of the things Javier did was translate the script back into Spanish. He'd rehearse it in Spanish, and come back to me with specific requests about word changes and adjustments and punctuation and all sorts of things. And when he came and when he arrived on set, he was fully, fully prepared."
"[O]ne of the more remarkable aspects of his performance is how well he uses language and how well he uses, or expresses, nuance and subtleties within the language," Mendes continued. It's one of the many things that really elevated the character of Silva, and what makes him one of the more memorable Bond villains, even a decade after his debut.

The next piece of vocabulary is paradise. This is a beautiful word that has a very long history. It comes from an old Persian word meaning walled garden. It was adopted by the Greeks and came to mean a royal park and then made it to English vial Latin and old French and now mean a place where everything is perfect. This means that paradise is different for different people. For some people, it might be a tropical beach, for others, a city of culture. For many, it was a place that they visited in their childhood where they were really happy.
