Final out come1











this is one of the ideas for our final out come, a movie clip.
the purpose of the movie clip is to educate people about the cultural differences.
We intend to make the movie in a funny way in order to make our audience remember it more.

here is the rough script of the movie clip:

1. Business Card

(Cast: Aussie/ Japanese, Role: Businessmen, Location: meeting room)

Open on a Wide Shot of office, an Australian businessman is talking on the phone with his boss and waiting for a Japanese businessman to come for a meeting.

SFX: knocking the door.

Aussie stands up and goes to open the door. The Japanese step inside the office. Japanese bows to greet but Aussie extends his hand for a handshake.

Zoom in to close up of the Aussie’s right hand which is at the level of the bowing gesture.

Zoom out, Japanese immediately stands up and extends his hand for handshaking, while Aussie tries to bow this time.

After realizing the cultural difference, now they both stand up and bow, then shake their hands. They look at each other carries with a smile.

Japanese took his name card from his wallet and pass it to Aussie with both hands. Australia receives it with his left hand put it straight way to his back pocket.

Zoom into (Close up) Japanese’s face, he is offended.

Cut to Medium shot of office table, they are about to finish the meeting. Aussie asked the Japanese one question.

Aussie: What’s the name of your colleague I should contact with tomorrow, Mr.?

Japanese: Nakamura.

Zoom into Aussie, taking the name card from his back pocket and tries to write the name on it. He repeats the name while he writes.

Aussie: Nakamura

Zoom into Japanese’s face, and he looks totally offended. He quickly stands up, throwing the files on the Aussie’s face and walks out of the room.

Focus on Aussie's face, he looks puzzled and doesn’t know what’s going on.
