ASSIGNMENT 12: INDIVIDUAL

PLANNINGPAMELA YOUNES

We have chosen ‘DRAMA’ as our genre.

INSPIRATIONAL FILMS sex and the city When each character would dress to

represent there personality, E.g. Miranda would wear nice formal

clothes representing her being a judge Samantha would represent revealing

clothing to represent that she would be more of a sexy looking trying to attract guys more esily

Carrie wearing creative and every time different representing her sense in fashion is what she likes.

INSPIRATIONAL FILM Charlie St.Cloud When Charlie had to pic either the girl

or his brother, in a particular scene and how that really touched the audience

Jerry Maguire When he would tell his wife about the

incident and the drama that would happen between them and the way she is acting to prove she still doesn’t know what is happening

INSPIRATIONAL FILM What a girl wants When the stepmother locks her

stepdaughter, this would be stereotypical as the stepmothers are always evil, which I liked as they would reinforce this.

IDEA EXPLORATION

CHOSEN IDEA TIMELINE

0.00 – 0.10 Would show the

settings

0.10 – 0.20Showing the

audience the dead body

0.20 – 0.30 Showing the

transition of a flash back – special

effect

1.20 – 1.30Showing how she had friends and

lost them all including her

boyfriend

1.00 – 1.20Speeding the scene

to another scene where she is

conscious about her weight

0.30 – 1.00The girl would be in

school and she would be bullied

1.30 – 1.40Stressed, so she

drinks a lot

1.40 – 1.50 While she is drunk she overdoses with

medication

1.50 – 2.10 Takes us back to the present, and can see all the

police and relatives

WHOLE FILM Showing the settings Equilibrium Showing the normality of the movie, Showing

the main Characters Disequilibrium When a climax would appear recognition A disruption would happen, it would destroy the

normality An attempt to repair There would be hero’s trying to resolve this

problem trying to make it normal again New equilibrium

STYLE OF THE OPENING SEQUENCE This would be a teaser

I thought that a teaser would be good as it would include many enigmas The audience would then know what kind of movie this would be

Many films are a teaser such as Scream Nightmare on elm street

NARRATIVE STRUCTURE AND THEORY This would be non-linear as time would

go backwards because of the flashbacks

I have chosen it to be this way as it would make the opening sequence more exciting rather it being; beginning, middle and end

My opening sequence would link to Allan Cameron - anachronic

CHARACTERS AND SETTINGS

Character representation

Where is it set and why?

The character committing suicide

The character committing suicide would be rich and not happy

This would mainly be set at home and how she would deal with her issue

And the people who were involved in her life, for her to be depressed

The peoples representation to these characters would be normal people with no problems

This would be set in school and outside school as they would bully her

CONVENTIONSConventions Use/develop/challenge why

Crime use Because the audience should still be able to understand the film and not to confuse them

Gossip challenge We wouldn’t want to make the audience predict everything, which would ruin the suspension

Conflict use Without conflict there wouldn’t be drama

Friendship develop In drama films everything is split into groups

Confusion in life use It would make the film more interesting

TITLES / CREDITS My titles / credits would be colourful as

drama would have different emotions and meaning, and different colours would mean different things

I would keep them all the same font and size, it would be

Arial and the size would be 54

AUDIENCE My target audience would be :

Types of audience

Who are they

Age PG

Gender Male and female

Ethnicity All ethnicity; black, white, Hispanic etc.

Social class Middle class

Sexual orientation

Straight, lesbian, BI and gay
