My Pitch for the Future Main Film

This is the pitch for my short film which I'm doing to make this half of term. Considering that its length should be no more than 5 minutes, not too much happens. The film is a melodrama and includes male protagonist who falls into a girl who was walking nearby and and offers a date in a cafe. On the following day the pair meets in the cafe and have a conversation about their personal life, they are both having a good time. In the last scene the boy and girl are leaving the cafe and both agree that they enjoyed a lot and look forward to meet again. Then the male character returns home and falls on the bed with a smile on his face.

The establishing shots were made in London during the half-term but the rest will be shot in Ellesmere College where I study at.

The big inspiration on coming up with the idea of the film was the 1966 album ''Pet Sounds'' which was largely linked to topics about love relationship between two teenagers.

Talking about the target audience, this will be the people of my age, mostly the teenagers who start the relationship with their halves. This type of audience does not really attend the prestige festivals like Berlin, Cannes, Venice etc. so it would be better to upload my film straight on Youtube.

Critical Question 2

How does my product engage with my audience? Well firstly it’s important to find out what my audience is. They are people who are very likely to enjoy the thriller genre films and their age somewhere between the teen age and early 30’s, possibly middle class people because they can understand the pain which main character feels. The main character is fully in debt and the stranger who he meets in a café gives him an offer to murder someone so he’ll be paid enough money to return the debt. Many people who will watch this will ask very deep questions like ‘’What would I do on his place if I had debts too?’’. And also there are thriller fans of the same age as above described people. These are the category which use the film watching to feel the tension, the people found out the Fincher-style thrillers which give the cliffhangers and the viewers wonder what will happen next. These people don’t watch these films because they reflect their personal life problems but are made in the genre th

How to Make a Good Villain

Villains are important characters in plot because they drive the conflict and they capture the viewer's attention. A villain is the opposite of a hero. A villain is the antagonist of your story whose motivations and actions oppose the protagonist and drive the plot of your story. A villain is the opposite of a hero. In contrast to the hero, a villain is usually compelled by a desire to commit acts of cruelty and immorality. Every great hero needs a great villain. Villains are the antagonistic force of your story that challenges your hero and drives the action. Most great villains share a common set of characteristics: 1) Strong connection to the hero . The best villains are inextricably connected to the hero, and aid in the hero’s character development through their inherent opposition to them. For example, in the Harry Potter series, Lord Voldemort murdered Harry Potter’s parents when he was a child, leaving behind a magical scar on Harry’s forehead intrinsically connects th

Cinemascope

Cinemascope is an anamorphic process that compresses an image during filming and uncompresses it when projected. The process involves squeezing a wide image onto 35mm film so that it fits the physical celluloid's square frame. With the help of anamorphic projection lenses, this image is then unsqueezed, allowing for the full width of the image to be displayed. In the early days of cinema, French inventor Henri Chretien created and patented an anamorphic lens that could be used for motion pictures. However, back in the 1920's and 1930's, no one was really interested. That all changed in early 1950's, when motive studios were losing their audience to the rise of television. It was convenient, could be enjoyed at home and provided the same entertainment value as movies. However, in 1952, ''This Is Cinerama'', which displayed a widescreen image with three cameras and three projectors was becoming a smash hit across the country, albeit in limited theatres.
