DEVELOPMENT- OF OUR FILM

brief story line:

Our opening sequence will start of with our main character (teenage male living in a middle class home) writing in his diary.. at this time the audience will be hearing his thoughts he will explain he does not like his life, he has no friends, and troubles at home. We then will hear a background sound of his parents arguing this leads the already unhappy boy to pack his bag and sneak out of his home. There is where our opening sequence will end. The plan for the rest of the story is for the boy to meet a man with a distorted face, the man tells his tragic story the boy is inspired by this and goes on to start realising how good his life really is.

our aim is establish situation, character and to provoke emotion. We plan to create enigma, leaving the audience with a few questions and wanting to watch more.

PLAN FOR VOICE OVER

In the space of 2 minutes for my feature film Katie and i have planned to have a voice over of our main character (Daniel) so we get a insight into the mind of this young depressed boy he will be describing himself as miserable and friendless.

RESEARCH- ABOUT A BOYS VOICE OVER

The voice over from “About a boy” has caught my eye, a movie staring Nicholas Hoult who plays the role of Marcus- a similar character we are aiming for. This is the script of the voice over of Marcus.

IDEAS FOR CREDITS:

STORY BOARD:

SHOT LIST:

ANIMATIC:

we created this by uploading our story board to a program called Image Ready. We had to make each box the same size and put them into order, then we uploaded it on photo-bucket.

audience: we plan for our film to attract a wide audience with a 12A certificate this is because it will contain swearing etc. our audience will reach 12-20 year olds with the majority of the audience being male, this is because they will be able to relate to our lead character- who is also male.
