FMP Proposal

Overview:

The short film I will be producing is a psychological thriller. The film will have a female protagonist and the antagonist will be male, both character will have influences from various characters which I have researched through different films like The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, Dexter, Zodiac and Kill Bill. I aim to make the film look visually dark and  de-saturated to fit the dark mood of the film. I also aim to create a dark mood through the sound, by using eerie music and atmospheric sounds in non-dialogue scenes.

Synopsis:

The film evolves around my protagonist Hannah who is not just your average lowlife druggie. On a bitterly cold morning Hannah walks to her normal pick up point to get her weekly fix, whilst waiting for the dealer Hannah witnesses an event which petrifies her. She then decides to take her troubles away by abusing drugs. After this still suffering from the side effects of the drugs Hannah finds herself in a park where she cant help feeling as if somebody is watching.

Blurb:

From nothing to everything, Hannah (protagonist) is a lowlife drug abuser, scraping her rent. But on a cold winter day, she is thrown into a life threatening ordeal after a body is tossed into a river. All she wanted was a fix...

Logistics: for this film I believe its vital for the shots to be planed exact for shooting on set as anyone who makes films would know that time is precious on set and planning ahead will not only make me more organised but it will give me more time to experiment with other shots.


Target Audience:

The audience that I have aimed to reach out to is people aged from 16 to 25, who like the thriller genre but also like other genres, for instance horror, dramas, horror thrillers and various other sub genres similar to these. I have aimed for these particular people because I fit into this target audience as well, so I have appealed to this audience by putting in what I like to see.
