    When I am free this week I am going to create a map for the most important part of my opening scene. The map will be found in the sand when the girl steps on it, but the map is going to be inside some sort of item. I am considering having the item be in a bottle, but I feel like that is way to basic. I want to try and make something that looks realistic but also really cool. I want the map to have a circle around a location and say that there is the lost gold located there. The map is going to be of their state rather than the world just because I feel like it is unrealistic for teenagers to be traveling around the world for this gold.

    I am super excited to create this since I grew up on these kinds of movies and I feel like I know how I am going to incorporate the map into the film without making it look unnatural. If I end up doing the bottle, I am going to make the teens sort of make a joke out of it because that is a very gen-z teenager thing to do. I think the easy would be to do the bottle since I am unsure where else I would find something to fit the map. I could try and find and create a box for this map aswell. 

   After thinking about it, I feel like the box could be my better option since it is more natural to find than a message in a bottle. I am going to make the box look very old and faded so that way it shows that this box has not been seen or found in a very long time or even ever. The map will also be the same way since it was inside the old box.
