THE LIFE AQUATIC

The Life Aquatic’s release date in the USA was December, however the film was not released in the UK until two

months later in February 2005. The film managed to make $113,085 on their opening weekend of the film being

released. Life Aquatic’s budget was $50,000,000 and with the film featuring popular actors such as Bill Murray and Owen Wilson it made it look entertaining and of course

more appealing due to people knowing both actors specialise in comedy.

OVERVIEW

When Steve Zissou’s partner is mysteriously killed by the possibly non existent ‘Jaguar Shark’ Zissou and his team set

off on an expedition they will never forget to find the creature that killed his beloved partner. Joining his crew is his estranged wife, who is a journalist and a co-piolet who

could quite possibly be his son. The crew are in for an entertaining and thrilling adventure.

THE STORYLINE

In the film there is a chase scene in which the crew are approaching a hotel. My task was to take the stills from the film an put them in an order in which I thought they would

make a similar chase scene, even if I waned to end the scene totally different to how it really ends. I found this

task quite challenging at first as of course I had not seen the film. However, once I got into the swing of things and has analysed the stills I began to find it easier to put them

in some sort of order. Whilst watching the clip from the film after I had completed the task I found that I had completed

a very similar scene to what the film actually was.
