E.g. Individual symmetrically framed shots of the Tenenbaum children || Most shots composed in this manner will be largely important when i'm focusing on my main character. In the times where she is expressing emotions worthy of the audience's attention is when these symmetrically framed shots will be close/wide in on her. ||

 * =  ||= **Techniques & Iconic Examples**
 * that your director would be known for** ||= **Example** ||= **How can you emulate this in your film?** ||
 * **Cinematography** ||= Symmetrically Composed Shots ||= All of Wes Andersons movies.
 * **Editing** ||= Warm tones with underlying blues and greens ||= Also, all of Wes Anderson movies. || The film will be color corrected in such a way that gives it that bittersweet feeling that is given off in Wes Anderson movies. My focus will be warm tones, such as oranges and reds, with underlying blues. ||
 * **Sound** ||= 1960's music by The Kinks, The Rolling Stones, The Who, etc. ||= "These Days" by Nico in the scene where Margot and Richie reunite after 20 years in //The Royal Tenenbaums//.

Or, "Strangers" by The Kinks in the funeral scene in //The Darjeeling Limited//. || I will find some appropriate music to fit my film. Music will be particularly important in iconic moments within my scene, e.g. the ending. ||
 * **Mise-en-scene** ||= Uniform/Distinct Wardrobe ||= Max Fischer's Rushmore uniform in //Rushmore.//

Or, Richie's "tennis player" inspired outfit in //The Royal Tenenbaums.// || My character will have a specific trademark outfit that she always wears (which has yet to be decided). Since I am showing her at two different ages, this outfit will remain the same during both those time periods. ||
 * **Performance** ||= Eccentric characters that act mature as children or childish as adults ||= Max Fischer in //Rushmore//

Dignan in //Bottle Rocket//

The Tenenbaum siblings in //The Royal Tenenbaums.// || My main character will be slightly quirky and unique to others her age. She will act rather mature as a child, and will do eccentric things like: writing lots of lists, biking (literally) 100 m to eat lunch then go back home, etc. ||
 * **Cinematography** ||= Slow motion shots ||= Final scene in all Wes Anderson movies.

Other iconic moments within his movies like when Margot and Richie reunite after 20 years in //The Royal Tenenbaums//

Or, the intro to the scene where Max and Mr.Blume go back and forth plotting against one another in //Rushmore// || The final scene of my film will be where my main character finally lets go of the resentment she has towards her brother. In this scene, my main character essentially tries to get revenge on her brother after something he did to her when she was a young child. However, much to her dismay, her plan won't go accordingly and will result in her getting hurt. This will cause the siblings to talk through their problems, essentially resolving them. I will be using a slow motion tracking shot to show how a blossoming sibling relationship is at hand. ||
 * **Introduction (performance, mis-en-scene**
 * & cinematography)** ||= Character Introductions ||= Max Fischer in //Rushmore//

The Tenenbaum siblings in //The Royal Tenenbaums// || I intend to introduce a few interesting aspects to my character, by showing some strange and unique things she does. Included will be: + Lunch time bike rides (when I was younger I used to bike down the street where I lived with a packed lunch. I would sit on a bench, eat my lunch, then bike back home. I'm pretty sure the bike ride was about 30 seconds away from my house...) + Strange enjoyment for always brushing her hair + Strange enjoyment for writing lots of different lists (mainly to-do lists) ||
 * **Cinematography** ||= Over the head POV shot ||= The itinerary (amongst other things) in //The Darjeeling Limited//

Dignan's 75 year plan in //Bottle Rocket// || I will use over the head POV shots to show the things my character is looking at, touching or holding. A few examples where I will use this is: + In the character introduction + The scene where the main character steals an object of her brothers(still to be decided) to feed to their dog ||
 * ** Cinematography ** ||= Panning/Tracking shots ||= In the post wedding distaster scene in //The Royal Tenenbaums// || See above in 'Slow motion shots' ||
 * **Plot** || Dysfunctional Families/Family Troubles || All Wes Anderson movies. || **(2)** In my film, my main character is struggling to let go of something her older brother did to her as a child. When she was younger, her brother threw her favorite doll down the second floor balcony to be devoured by their dog. This is something that has haunted my main character for a long time. When her mother tells her that her brother is coming back to visit from college, she is not happy. Paying little attention to him at first, my main character then decides she is going to get pay back for what he did to her. However, he plan goes horribly wrong and she ends up hurting herself instead. This leads to the two siblings talking things out, and the main character lets go of the anger she has towards her brother. ||
