Deciding on a storyline

There are four members of my group that are working on this preliminary task. We all came up with some interesting ideas for this film, we finally decided on a proposal scene, thinking this idea the most interesting and easy to work.The scene is set in a school, which was easy to do seeing as we were in school at the time we were filming. The female character is a teacher who is surprised at work by her boyfriend who proposes. But all does not go to plan because she says 'no'. In the brief we were given, it said that we should make one character dominant and show this with camera angles. We chose to make the female character dominant in the situation because the outcome of the proposal rests on her answer. We showed her to be the dominant character by having the male actor on his knee for most of the conversation, he is looking up at her and we have filmed the proposal scene from his and her point of view so that the differ in heights is evident.
