Here's the ideas for the pitch:
- Working Title: Missing
- Film genre: Mystery thriller
- Length: 90 mins
- Target audience: 15-34 both genders
- Tagline: Can you escape the darkness?
- What if you were left alone in the woods with your worst nightmare?
- The story synopsis: The story begins with a girl coming home from a friend’s house, she decides to take the short cut home through the woods due to being late for dinner. She gets kidnapped by an unknown character, where he keeps her hostage and taunts her until he receives money from her family through a series of clues. In the end she frees herself by murdering the man.
- Statement of intent: Theme is based around a missing person and the strong determination between the family to get her home. We’re telling this story because we want it to have a good mystery storyline to keep the audience on the edge of their seat. It’s a film rather than a TV drama series because we didn’t feel that a long-winded series would work for this idea as this way it’s faster pace rather than having intervals until the next episode. Our film differs from other thriller films because rather than just intentions to scare the audience it has a gripping storyline. This is a film that we would enjoy watching as it has a lot of background story.
- Visual realisation: A mixture between long lasting shots to build up tension for the climax and fast cuts to show the fast pace struggle between the antagonist and protagonist. We don’t know of any films similar to this type of film/
- Audience appeal: This film will appeal to our target audience (15-34) because adults and teenagers both generally enjoy mysteries, also the protagonist will be a teenager so everyone can relate to being this age.
