The PitchBy lamar holly Emilie and Marcus

Overview State your subgenre The sub genre that we are going to be doing is disaster

thriller Outline plot of sequence In our film it will show the strong bond between two

brothers. However one of the brothers got into a tragic car accident and passes away however it is not real to the other brother so he continuously imagines his brother is still with him all the time. And in him doing so form everyone else's point of view the brother is talking to himself

Themes- reality, perception, mind, purpose, identity, death.

Representations Young people- portrayed in a positive way as it shows

them being friendly towards each other and having a true connection with the brothers.

Males- portrayed positively as the brothers are shown to genuinely care about each other so much so that after he is gone he still believes that he is still here.

Females- portrayed positively as she is shown to care about her friend and asks if he is ok.

Genre- usually in these genres women are the victim and men are the villains. In this case it is different at this point in the film there is no villain

Society- in society men are more violent than women and this is shown in out film when they are messing about and he gets pushed in the road.

Locations Interior? The places we will film form inside are going to be inside the refectory, along the corridors in media Exterior?We will be filming on the main road just outside of college as well as by west wing and out side the media block Permissions?We will need permission to use empty classrooms from the teachers

Structure Act 1- key moment- seeing dead body

on floor

Act 2- key moment- finds out what actually happens

Act 3- key moment- Lamar sees Marcus in his mind “find him” implies need for revenge

Representation: Character

Character 1 Lamar – has similar personality to his brother in that they

enjoy always going out and playing football

Character 2 Marcus – outgoing and was good friends with everyone

which is why it has such a great effect and lots of people at the college when he is gone

Character 3 Emilie – she is a background character who will always

make it clear to the audience that Lamar is going crazy

How? Genre conventions?We will have lots of changes in camera angles Low key lighting where suitable Quick cuts and shadows also where suitable Attracting target Audience?The way in which we will catch the audience attention Is by misleading from the start as they will assume that me and Marcus are to ordinary brother at college however they will then realise that Marcus is dead and Lamar's starting to go crazy Mood/Atmosphere creation?From Lamar's point of view he will be happy and always full of energy form his brother however from someone else's point of view they will be really sad and feel sorry from Lamar

How? Mise en scene Setting – time and placeIt will be the middle of the day at college right in the middle of college as well where everyone usually is Props – prop requests?The props that we will be using are a flashlight when we are creating the accident scene ruck sacks when making it clear that we are college students LightingWe will have bright lighting when it is form Lamar's point of view however when it from another persons point of view is would be very dull colour and low lighting Costume/makeupWe wont be using any makeup and costumes wont be needed as all characters will be wearing standard casual clothing

Influences from research Which films and opening sequences have influenced

you and why?

The film influenced our group the most is shutter island reason being in this thriller it fully throws off the audience from the beginning as they make out that both of the main characters are fully sane however then when watching the entire film you begin to reason that one of them mentally broken. From this it influenced our group massively as this is what we are going to try to remake in our opener as we will make it unclear that one of the brothers is out of his mind but from the audience perspective at first everything seems normal.
