FOOTBALL HOOLIGANS

By Jahmal Crowe and Louis Dasseville-Fryatt

Friday, 24 September 2010

THE IDEAOur idea is aimed at a young adult audience. The story is about a

17 year old boy, he arrives to college on monday with a beaten up face. When his friends question him about how he received the

injuries to his face, he tells them about his new found hobby...FOOTBALL VIOLENCE. He has a big ego and shows off a lot and he is fake in front of his friends. He doesn’t tell them the

true story of how he actually received his injuries. Will they see the real him?


AUDIENCE RESEARCHHere is some audience market research that we got from

walking around the college. We asked both boys and girls. We asked 15 people in total and here are the results we got in a chart. We found that even though girls said they didn’t like

either, they would go for silent comedy.

Football Hooligans vs Silent Comedy

Football Hooligans Silent Comedy


GENERIC CONVENTIONSour idea has challenged the typical forms of our genre as all of the characters are of a younger age. In a football hooligan film you would expect to see violence, in our film the fighting is

between the young people and not the typical older generation associated to football violence. The narrative has slightly changed from typical football violence films as our character exaggerates

about the violence he has been involved with and his acceptance to the firm.


PROPSHere are some of the props that we will be using in our

webisode. Mostly fake things that we will be using.


SWOT ANALYSISStrengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats

Strengths Weaknesses

Opportunities Threats

. If all works it will look very realistic when using fake blood, fake

bricks, etc

. Appeals to action film fans

. May not appeal to a wide spread of audiences

. We can’t glorify football violence as it is frowned upon, so we

have to do it in a civilised way.. We might not get enough actors for the fight scene

. Might not be able to find a free location

. The world cup has recently ended and he season has just started, so

this is a good way to get in the right football mood

. Will hopefully grow in audiences . Won’t be able to have a lot of violence due to health and safety. As well as a weakness, a threat is that we can’t glorify football

violence


COMEDY

By Jahmal Crowe and Louis Dasseville-Fryatt


THE IDEABecause we have been focusing more on the Football Hooligans

idea, we haven’t really got a solid idea for ‘Comedy’. After research on Laurel and Hardy, for this idea we would make it a silent comedy with some music playing over the top of it. This is

our idea for the comedy genre.


AUDIENCE RESEARCHThis is the same research as on the audience market

research.

Silent Comedy Football Hooligans


GENERIC CONVENTIONSOur idea has gone back to classic comedy by taking the ideas from past comedy and brought the ideas back in to present

time. Nowadays you would probably expect to hear sound and for it to be in colour, but with ours it is black and white with no

sound other than the music which plays over the top.


SWOT ANALYSISStrengths

. A good example of a successful silent comedy is mr Bean (equivalent to a

silent film) so this could help with popularity if a new silent comedy comes in

. It’s different

. Could use medioka actors as there is no speech


SWOT ANALYSISWeaknesses

. No sound (people may get bored)

. Black and white effect may not

work

. May not get much views as it isn’t mainstream

anymore


SWOT ANALYSISOpportunities

. Doesn’t have to be a big budget as it will be kept simple

. Use drama students

. I know a stunt person to do some of the practical

but dangerous things


SWOT ANALYSISThreats

. Health and Safety

. May loose peoples attention if it is similar
