**I posted my aesthetic ideas two posts down.**

This is the first film I ever made. My friends and I shot it all in one day when we were fifteen. It was all off the top of our heads. I still like the idea for it so I'm going to remake it using good equipment(dvx100a, final cut studio 2). I'm keeping the whole plot as is, but am using props, transitions, color schemes, and other things.
Pretend that we arent little kids.

So far we have only about the first minute of the new one scripted out, but I am thinking about aesthetics right now. If anyone could respond to this it would be a great help.

Color/tone: The 'germanators' are going to be wearing black suits and one is going to wear a yellow tie and the other one will wear a darker tie(probably red). The Jew is going to wear all light clothes, probably a outfit with a blue hue. Basically the tones will be dark for germanators, light for germans and the color will be warm for the germanators and cool for the germans

lines: I'm probably going to use a basic line pattern of horizontal for not much going one and vertical for scenes w/ intensity, but my friends and I want to keep this at the original locations so I'm limited on that.

Space/angles: I haven't completely thought out space yet, but this kind of fits in. I'm going to get lower angle shots of scenes with the Germanators and higher angle shots for scenes with the german, when they are both in the frame together , it will be mid angle. I'm not sure how well that works tho

I'm going to have the germanators speak with a jewish accent and use jewish words.

I know there are other aesthetic principles, but I havent gotten quite that far yet, I'm just getting my feet wet with this thing right now. Please respond with any comments.
 
I'm only mildly offended by the youtube link. Anyway.

I'd put a lot more thought towards the writing right now that the art design.
 
I am going to add a Germanator who has a Jew fro, I'm getting together with a friend tomorrow and I'll post how I'll build on that story.
