Slide 1- Title of our film, we have decided to call our film Demented which may change in future. Before this me and my partner decided to call it Haunted however from feedback of the target audience they prefered Demented as Haunted sounded too vague and boring.
Slide 2- This is another moodboard we have made on PowerPoint with more images that can relate to our film. It has pictures from clubbing, drugs to bodies in boots and canal. The images clearly show the gore and horror to the film and you can see drugs are related.
Slide 3- ‘Sex, parties and drugs is all it took for one girl’s soul to be shredded in the depth of the canal. But will she ever seek revenge; after all they say it’s an eye for an eye, but who knows.’
Our short synopsis has a lot of information to give and gives a foreboding atmosphere. It is to the point with all the details needed of the film.
Slide 4- The target audience for this film will be of both male and female at the age of 15-24. They love to have a thrill and are up for any type of horror films. Mostly attracts to older teenagers and young adults who are either a student or middle classed who watch films to be entertained. Our film has parts to do with sex and drugs it can relate to our target audience. From research I found over 40% of the young have smoked cannabis and 86% of young people support its legalisation. 20% of men and 15% of woman have already had 10 or more partners of my age group. The genre horror suits the age group as young adults are into gore, blood, violence etc. The young adults love to watch their films in cinema with friends. It is a 15 and not a 18 because there is no actual sex scenes.
Slide 5- Key questions we want our audience to think about after watching the teaser. Read questions out
Slide 6 to 8- Storyboard read bullet points of each images and shots. We have midshots, high angle shots, longshots, close up to extreme close up shots and over the shoulder shots. We may rearrange this if it doesn't work to plan. High angle shots are to show the surrounding and also gives a intimidating view. Mid shot is our common shot which will be used to show what each character is doing and when they are exchanging things. Close up to extreme close up will give a horrofic view of the main character and these close ups work well on horror/thriller films.
Slide 9- These are our 3 main characters, they are not from St Marylebone so we all have to get together and make a timetable when we are all free and exchange contact details.
Slide 10- This is the main character, who in the film was a casual teenage girl who loves going parties, chilling with friends. A stereotypical teenager at the age of 19, she is very laid back person who does anything daring to get a bit of attention.
She wears clothes from casual to extremely over the top depending on how lazy she is like most teens and comes from an upper class background. She is more of an outdoor girl with a loud personality and can act very confident when she actually has low self esteem and tries very hard to get her confidence. This all changes after the drugs kick in.
Slide 11- These are the other two main characters who are from a middle class background. They are unemployed typically wear hoodies and tracksuits, they are from the ‘streets’ as they say and make their money illegally and get up to no good.
They earn a lot of money through their dirty work they do and can make others feel intimidating. They are into sex, drugs and money and love wearing clothing such as Nike, Adidas, Ralph Lauren etc.These men are out most of their days having the time of their life making money, going clubs, meeting girls etc. They are a typical thug that believe nothing can harm them and they are always superior and can get what they want when they want.
Slide 12- Most of the filming will be taken in doors such as the bathroom scene, bedroom scene, Lilly getting ready in her room etc. The ones filmed outdoors will be in the regent park region where there is a canal and alleys for a foreboding atmosphere that will work well for our canal scene. We will take our high angle shots from a balcony of a estate in Regents Park. Here is the image of the balcony view.
