Shot List

Image
I have chosen to create a shot list to with planning out scenes and the order for shooting them. I have done this by listing numbered scenes and adding details of where the scene takes place and who/what needs to be there. I followed this up by giving a general description of the scene. By doing this the final film should be more consistent as for when I return to the same location. 

Film Treatment

  Film Treatment   The Production Bog Corbon Hibberd/07926654325 03/02/23   Log line 3 young, aspiring workers attempt to create a film, but with clashing ideals and a director in over his own head, that may prove difficult. Characters I have chosen to not give traditional names to my characters as they will not add to the story but take away from it. The intent to make the audience feel as if they can slip themselves or anyone they know into the place of the characters. By giving them names that outcome becomes less likely. Director- Casual clothing. He is a lazy, lofty standards man who wishes for everything to go his way. If he wants to he will go through illegal methods to get what he wants. He has known the editor since secondary school and only ever had a good relationship with him. Puts on a kind face when in front of the public. Abuses his workers when ever given the chance. Kinder in his younger years. Abuses his power. Editor- Casual cloth...

Script

Lighting blasts onto DIRECTOR from behind the camera. NARATOR sits behind camera and asks questions.   (Fade from black)   NARRATOR What inspired you to produce a film of this length with so little resources?   DIRECTOR (Calm and controlled manner) My desire has always been to prove the world wrong. Which involves creating a worldwide trend in young directors. Who I believe should take the main stage.   --ACTOR enters scene   ACTOR (To DIRECTOR) I need my next outfit ready for…   (ACTOR cut off by DIRECTOR)   DIRECTOR (Shouting in anger) How dare you come into this room during my interview.

Pitch

 My 4–5-minute mockumentary aims to entertain through comedy whilst also educating my audience the struggles of clashing ideas. The film is targeted towards teens as they are more likely to be engaged with the genre. The film will be uploaded onto the Jinjasnap Youtube channel as that is where they’re is most likely to view it. The themes used will be teamwork, and overconfidence. 3 young, aspiring workers attempt to create a film, but with clashing ideals and a director in over his own head, that may prove difficult . The characters include; an egotistical, director, an actor who is full of themselves. Finally, there is a grounded editor. None of them are given names to help the audience relate. The film starts with an interview with the director, who believes that the documentary is being made as of rumours that the film is going to do incredible numbers. We find out however, that the editor called them in to expose the director. This is followed by footage that shows off th...

Mockumentary Examples

The Majestic Plastic Bag             Kevin             The Bear I have decided to take a look at over examples of mockumentaries to borrow ideas and gestures on how mockumentaries should look, run, play out and more. I have also analysed them in comparison to each other to find similarities and differences. This should help give the film a smoother production schedule as I know what I want in it and to get out of it. To get these examples I searched up on YouTube the term 'Mockumentary,' and selected 3 of similar length to final film. I then put the name of each one onto the word document along with the link. I then proceeded to list all aspects of the film I could find.  

Ideas for Short Film

  I have decided that for my short film I would like to go with the first idea presented on the table above as I believe that is where I can be most creative with the production overall. I decided to make this table to easily present the main aspects of the potential films and make an ultimate decision quicker. I already came up with first idea before making the table so to widen my view I made adjustments to the character's situations to end up with 3 altogether. This should therefore end up with a product that overall comes across as more alive and entertaining to watch, as I am enjoying the process of production and this may transfer onto the screen.
