Fish out of water

We have to come up with our own ideas for films with the idea of a fish out of water which is basically someone who is out of their comfort zone.
Our idea is about a boxer who meets a ballerina who both say they wont date each other if the other wont do their love of sport, e.g. the boxer has got to do ballet.
The title we come up with is One step at a time and the tagline is - she is a instant hit
The film we could think would come close to this is Billy Elliot as he wants to be dancer but his family want him to be a boxer. Billy Elliot the film poster inspired us as he is in boxing gear in a ballet lesson.
As you can see from the picture below this is our film poster, We have put our the boxers body onto the ballerinas legs.

Overall i am happy with my film poster as it is comical and says a lot about what the film is about and it has some key conventions as in big bold tittle and the main image stands out, the one bad thing about it is it is a bit bear and looks a bit boring.

Conflict in film is a great idea for a starting point for a film as it causes drama and tension but can also be a great starting point for a good comedy
Another good start for generating a idea for a film is by using 'fish out of water' which is where a character goes someone or does something which is outside their comfort zone.
