Intro description For 'Million Dollar Punch'
Trainspotter intro:
Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose a three-piece suit on hire purchase in a range of fucking fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who the fuck you are on Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pissing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked up brats you spawned to replace yourselves. Choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin' else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got heroin?
Why we have chosen this:
This is the the similar script that we will be using at the beginning of our film, as you can see here this is from the film 'TrainSpotting' we will be using this text to change into our own about illegal fighting.

We had an idea of changing our song which plays in the film from 'Metallica-one' to 'Foo Fighters- I should of known, but then we came to a desicion to keep our present song 'Metallica- One'

"Million Dollar Punch" Poster Image
Using a Photo editing application on my phone I created the cover and poster for 'Million Dollar Punch'. After filming the scene in the film when both fighters shake hands once the fight had finished, I had them hold the position to take a photo, with the photo I then made the entire picture black and white other that Jimmy Sharmans (Lee Arnold) hand, I did this as I think it gave very good affect. To further this effect I then gave the image a cartoon style look. This shows how I created the image:
This is the original photo I took:
I then gave the photo the black and white effect:
Here is the final finished image with the cartoon style effect. This is the image and poster for 'Million Dollar Punch':
In the future we plan to create a case for 'Million Dollar Punch' and this image will feature on the front cover alongside a title, reviews and production logo.

Props/Equipment
Here is our first image of our props. As you can see here we have used ketchup to convey the blood and coke to give it the liquidy texture that is needed to show the realistic blood, and its easier to spit out.
Here is the end result of the Ketchup + coke.
Here are the hand wraps we are using in the fight sequence for the protectio and also for the costume design.
Here is the 'matress' where Lee Arnold will be using it to punch, in one of opening scenes that we did.
This is the treadmill that features in the training session of Kieran Tylers part.
This chai used at the very start of the film where Lee Arnold will be sitting down to show the opening.
Ths cloth is used to add the sweat feature to the actors to show the work force upon the characters.
The Guitar is used to make the theme of the film, which is fully composed throughout the film.
For lighting effects we used the video alsh of an iphone which actually worked very well than we expected.
The software that we used to edit the movie was Imovie for apple mac. The overall functions of the film editer was very good and provided alot of effects and equipment. The second software we used was Garageband for Mac, this me to add the music that we wanted to do. The overall functions of this wa svery good and showed consistent quality.
The equipment that we were able to access was a apple mac.We chose to do it on here as the software is already provided for us.
