Shot By Shot Remake - Comparing Our Version With The Original Version

Comparison Of The Breakfast Club 

When comparing our version of the Breakfast Club to the original version, we had to make changes to certain area's that we couldn't get any access to. As a result, we had to think creatively and try our best to make it match to the original version as best as we could. Furthermore, there were area's we could make similar because of the facilities and environment of our college making it easier for us as most scenes in the original version was in school compound.

For example:  

School

Original Version

The entrance of the school was most probably the easiest shot we could match. This is because of our setting, as we was located in our very own college when filming. This meant that we could match the beginning of the scene in Breakfast Club because of our location.

Our Version

With the easy access to certain area's in our college, we were able to film the clock, the hallway, lockers, and canteen area. This made life very easy for us as we had these certain area's we could film and also make it match to the original version, making it look very similar.

Car

Original Version

The car scene is the original versions were all driven by the children's parents introducing each character. This was something we had to alter when doing our own version. This is because we had no access to cars, making it difficult for us to do the scene. On the other hand, we thought creatively and used a toy car to portray the car in the original version.

Our Version

Because of not having access to a car to film the conversations between the characters, we had to film that interaction in the college, then cutting to the toy car, making it almost seem like they're in a car talking. This was a change we had to make in our version, but although without it, we did our best to try make it match. We followed from a script of the conversation in the car trying to make it realistic and match the same.

We managed to get access to the song that was playing over everything in the intro of Breakfast Club. We done the same, playing the exact song over our version, as this again shows the similarities between our version and the original version.

We also did the voice over at the beginning of the scene. We did it the same as the original film version reading of the script. It flowed smoothly over the images, just like in the original version, but unfortunately, we made a slight era halfway through messing up the words a tiny bit, but recovered perfectly and continued as we never made it effect our work.
