Shot by shot remake- comparison

Compare your version of the 'Breakfast club' with the original version.

Characters:
In our version of the remake of The Breakfast Club, we only had 4 people in our group whilst there were 9 characters in total in the scene we were given, however we managed to find extras who played the remaining characters in order to keep it similar to the original. For example, Janet played Claire, David as Andrew, Akbar as John and myself as Allison but there were also characters such as Brian, his mother and sister and Andrew's father in the scene provided. As a group we decided to play more than one character and also found fellow college students to play other roles such as Brian and Andrew's father.

In the original, they had one person each to play the role of one character compared to us having to play more than one role. They also had actors who were suitable for the role in terms of appearance e.g. an older person to play as parents and teachers etc.

Location:
For our location, we were only allowed inside the college, which was difficult as most scenes were shot outside in the original, however we managed to improvise and change a few things up however still keeping the same plot in mind e.g. for scenes inside a car, we used the canteen area which has chairs to make it look like car seats etc.

In the original version, they also used a college as their main location, however they also used the entrance of the college for the car scenes and the students entering and also had a larger classroom.

Props:
For props we tried our best to get similar props used in the original such as empty bottles, empty crisp packets and other sorts of litter, graffiti, paper with words written on it etc.

Costume: We also tried to find costumes closest the ones in the original such as Andrew's sport/jersey jacket, Claire's feminine clothing, John's long jacket and Allison's dark costume to reflect her personality.

Editing: For editing, we tried our best again to get it close to the original in terms of the credits at the beginning we used the same titles e.g. 'Costume Designer' but used our names instead also the same colour as the original. Due to the fact we only had 4 people in our group, we had to again repeat our names for different roles.

However in the original, they had different people for different roles as they obviously had more people.

Music: We used the same music as the original which is by Simple Minds- Don't you forget about me
