Well, scrap what I had originally said about the choice of our amazing song Runnin 😔. According to our instructor, in order to use the song we must get direct approval front the artist themselves before we can attach their music to our film opening. We have contacted ASAP Rocky, through Instagram, and even emailed his agency. We made it very clear in the email and text that we will not be making any money off of the production, and that it is only for a school project, but we are still currently waiting for a response.
In the meantime, we are exploring other alternative songs that we could use, which also match the intensity and vibe of our training scene. I found a few different websites which have music that is not copyrighted and songs that are actually not too bad. Currently, the two songs that we are looking at are called "throw a fit" and "power" the only problem with these two songs is that they are longer than two minutes, and may seem a bit generic. However, we must work with what we have while we wait for the producer and ASAP Rocky to respond.
Moreover, we also began to discuss our actors costume design in more detail. He will be wearing a white tight long sleeve compression shirt at the start, as it will be his warm up gear. He will be wearing black shorts, and will be carrying a duffel bag. The shirt also makes our fighter look bigger and more intimidating. He will be wearing this shirt for the scenes where he is in the boxing gym, or when he is doing any boxing related action. For the other training scenes, he will be wearing a curt muscle shirt, which looks a bit shabby. We purposely chose this type of costume to show his dire situation, and also to represent his financial as well as mental/physical struggle. The tank top will be black or blue, as it matches his personality, as a hard cold, but kind character.
