After being advised to watch 'Clerks' by a tutor it because a big influence on our film in terms of style. The grittiness of the shots and lack of unnecessary action is something we intend to think about. The opening of Dante waking up and opening the shop shows a few elements of his morning routine but Kevin Smith decides not to show us every little thing as it's unnecessary and the viewer can get the information they need and understand Dante's character in a short time with few shots. We intend to do this with our film to show Martin's lifestyle in an effective way.
