The Last AdventureBY RENAE, FAITH AND ANT

“ Live today like it’s your last!”

Genre

The genre of our film is action or adventure which means we can include people going on holiday and living their dreams. Our film is packed with

adrenalin-rushing moments giving the viewer a virtual experience throughout!

When looking at the genre we wanted to make something enjoyable for our audience, with our target audience being mums and dads around the ages of

20-30 who generally stay at home.

Genre success influences

We got the idea of family from this film because this family goes on a road trip and our film focuses on the journey of a family after finding out the daughter is suffering from terminal illness.

We got ideas from this film about someone being ill and not having long to live, we are using this in our film when one of the main characters is ill and has decided to go on their ‘last adventure’.

We also got inspiration from this film because this is a similar scenario of someone doing what they’ve always wanted to do before they sadly die.

The story line:In this film a young girl lives a rough life and diagnosed with a long term illness, as if things weren't bad enough already, she knows she doesn’t

have long left. she decides that she needs a bucket list, and that she needs to accomplish her dreams and fast. But where would she get the

money? So she later goes around the world on a road trip, Taking her loving

family with her every step of the way visiting extraordinary places, and doing things her way. she has the time of her life. Overcoming all her

fears and achieving her dreams. But will she have the time to do it all? And get to Experience her most important dream?

Setting - Film Language

• One setting will be at the family’s house in America.• Another will be at the hospital when the main character finds out that

they are ill. The weather here will be dull and dark to portray the emotional times that the family will be going through. • The main setting will be in New York where the whole family will be

on an adventure. The weather will be very sunny and bright in this setting which will show the family’s happy times together.• The final setting will be at the church where the characters funeral

will be held. In this setting the weather will be dull to represent the sad atmosphere of the funeral.

Sound - Film Language• Our soundtrack will include several non-diegetic and parallel music.

For example, when the diagnosis scene occurs at the start we will accompany the sorrowful atmosphere with slow-paced a lower volume sound from a violin to encompass the devastation for Stacey and her family.• Additionally, when the family are on their exciting travels all over the

world, the overall soundtrack will change from upbeat music in order to capture the idea of a girl going to all extremes to fulfil her lifelong dreams and ambitions.

Editing - Film Language• There will be huge contrasts in the camera angles we will use in our

film. For the more emotional and hard-hitting scenes, the majority of camera angles will be close ups and extreme close ups to visualise the emotion in facial expressions of Stacey and her family.• On the other hand, when the family are on their travels, we will opt

for a series of long shots to give the viewer an experience of the amazing places they will visit during their adventure.

The audience

The audience is aimed at stay at home mums and dads, so this film needs to be able to get them out the house and suitable for young children in case these parents need to bring children into the cinema.This film would be in the cinema around autumn time ,because the weather would be getting colder so no-one would want to be out in it and it is more likely for the film to get more views because people can watch it out there house but indoors.it gives these stay at home parents a good time to socialise more.

Enigma codes:

Without doubt, the audience will be asking themselves questions, the whole way through, like whether or not she will be able to complete her

life long bucket list and whether she can do it in time.The guessing and asking questions means the audience can stay engaged

right up until the very end, this means that the audience will not be distracted from the storyline which is chronological from start to finish.

Cast We have lined up an all-star cast and we are looking to pitch our film to worldwide production companies such as, Warner Bros, Paramount or Lionsgate. Our cast includes the likes of: Jim Carrey as ‘Gavin Weston’ Jennifer Anniston as ‘Kate Weston’ Dylan Sprouse as ‘Max Weston’ Chloe Moretz as ‘Stacey Weston Why?

We feel that our line up will really capture the theme because these actors are experienced and can adapt to any role as they have shown in previous films they have starred in. For our project, Carrey will play the father, Anniston the mother, Dylan the son and finally Moretz will play the daughter who

Main Characters - Stacey• The image we want to create for our main character is a vulnerable

teenage girl, who at the start is completely uninspired in her own life. Slowly but surely she picks herself up from a state of heart-breaking despair thanks to the unrivalled support from her close family.

• This courageous spirit of Stacey will provide our young female viewers with a role model showing how life should not be taken for granted.

Main Characters - Gavin• We feel that Jim Carrey is the perfect figure to represent a loving

father in a hard-hitting film such as ours. Carrey’s ability to change character is second to none which bodes well as our film requires an individual who can adapt to any situation with class and professionalism. • Carrey has huge experience as an actor. He played the role of a loving

husband in the 2003 film Bruce Almighty and has no limits when it comes to acting different scenarios.

Marketing:

This film will be marketed by the trailer being on YouTube and on certain websites e.g. Facebook. Because these stay at home parents

would often socialise on the internet, so its easier for them to see and get hold of.

Also a lot of posters will be posted every where including on buses and all over the web. Finally, our film will be displayed on huge billboards all

across the UK.

Budget• Our film fits into the mainstream film industry and will potentially be

viewable at cinemas all over Europe and North America.• The budget for this production will be around the £60 million mark

due to casting some of Hollywood’s biggest actors in recent times. • Additionally, we will need to invest time, money and effort into

creating the more difficult shots when capturing the once in a lifetime moments so that the audience can experience every intense moment with sheer excitement and happiness.

Thanks for Watching!
