Changes from the story board

The film mainly stuck to the story board, but we altered the story as we saw an opportunity to use the the betting shop William Hill. We then came up with the idea that the central character had a money problem and owed large sums of money to loan sharks. This also meant we had a reason for the gangsters to appear, as they broke in to his apartment to get their money. Consequently we had the idea of the central characters girlfriend being abducted by the gangsters as we figured it would seem realistic and we also decided as a group we like films where the action happens immediately. The changes made the film opening more exciting, more realistic, easier to relate to and also added more connotations of the action genre; a damsel in distress.
