Initial ideas

The initial ideas of our production were all different, one of the members in our group suggested we do a horror or thriller and described his idea, he wanted to do a mysterious scene that included a darkened house and scary noises, how ever the rest of the group including me all agreed that a thriller or horror was not the best idea as it would be better to do something different, the next idea that came up was of an action genre, but the problem with this is that in order to make a good action film you need a good budget, of which we dont have, however we all wanted to make an action film so we decided to make it a action/comedy, this way there would not need to be as much special effects needed. but the main reason we chose this genre is because we can then have the first 2 minutes as comedy and if the rest of the film was to be made, it can then include action further on.
the final decision was much to the liking and agreement of the whole group so as not to start of any arguments.
