25 Word Pitch

Check out this SlideShare Presentation:

(1st slide)
Me and mat have chosen to film a opening of a film for our coursework. The genre of the film is a romance. We chose this genre because looking through the previous coursework nobody seem to have attempted to create a romance so we thought we should be ones who do it and we fell we can do this fairly well. The title of our film is "Forever in my Heart" we came to a conclusion that this would be the best title to use because the other titles we thought about gave a lot away of the film.

(2nd slide)
The first scene will be straight into the action. So we shall start it off with a establishing shot of the house (which will be Josh's house) we used the establishing shot so the audience immediately know that where there setting is. Also in this shot it shall be raining and it will be fairly dark this represents sadness. Eventually the establishing shot ends up with the camera peering through the window with the only light on in the house. Also we shall have very dramatic/sad music playing at a low volume to create a feeling, proberly played on the piano.

(3rd slide)
The next shot will be inside the house and will show the boyfriend laying on the floor lifeless and the girlfriend kneeling beside him trying to resuscitating him. She will be in great shock, and at this point the music gets louder and more dramatic. Then the girlfriend will hold here boyfriend in her arms and realise that he has died, she will then look up at the camera which will get closer to her eye which shall shed a tear and eventually end up so close to her eye it Will become darkness which represents death.

(4th slide)
This is when the titles will role and the the music we want to use is from a YouTube clip which someone has written and sang herself and we have emailed the women to see if we could use her music in our film and we are awaiting a reply.

(5th slide)
The music will still be playing but the titles shall fade out and then amateur filming will be shown of the boyfriend and girlfriend filming each other on there own personal camera of particularly happy times. The music Will the slowly dimmer and the boyfriends voice will become a voice over of the amateur filmed clip and he shall be explaining, in a soft and calm voice, how his life was brilliant and is amazed how it can go from to to bottom in just 1 week. Hinting towards the rest of the film.

(6th slide)
Then the amateur clips will fade out and a title will come up saying " Present Week". This shot will be of the boyfriend ( who shall be wearing dark colours) picking up a letter from the post in his house. ( it is also daylight and sunny at this point) and sitting down to read the letter in privacy. He opens it slowly to find its from the NHS. He then begins to read it but in his head this will be shown by a voice over and the beginning of the letter shall be voiced over by the nurse e.g dear mr ... then the boyfriend voice shall take over. He then gets to the point where he reads its to late to take his medication and there is no cure for his condition and only has at the max a week to live.

(7th slide)
Then his girlfriend rushes into the room ( who shall be wearing brightly coloured clothes) the boyfriend then panics and hides the letter. The girlfriend shares some dialect the boyfriend e.g are we still going for that walk today. He then replies yes but I'm going to take next week off and spend the whole week with you. she then looks shocked but excited and says " that's fantastic whats brought this on" he then says " oh nothing i just don't spend enough time with you" she then goes out the room to get ready to go out.

(8th slide)
he then un crinkles the letter and continues to read for it to say make the most of this week do all the things you've alwayswanted to do. He then puts the letter down in shock. Then the camera will become a close up of his face to show emotion and he will look sad. Then the YouTube song will then fade back on as the clip fades out. Eventually the song fades and that would be the ending of the opening of the film.

This is how are presentation went roughly.
