Ideas Rejected Conspiracy plot: This is where I would go into central London and film a birds

eye view of people walking around on their phones as if they are being brainwashed and controlled by society. I rejected this idea because it is too similar to the film Eagle eye.

Religious plot: This is where someone would be flicking through the bible and the names of people involved names would be coming out of it. Only bible pages would be shown. I rejected this idea because it sound boring and not very interesting.

Stalking plot: This is where someone is being followed. The casting peoples names would be following the stalker as he follows a girl, Then he gets close enough to smell her hair. I rejected this idea because it sounded too clique.

Bulling plot: This is where someone is being bullied and every time someone pushed him a casting name would show up. He decides to take revenge on everyone who bullied him. I rejected this idea because it was too similar to the film Tormented.

Final IdeaAlone plot: This is where their is a loner in his house.

The whole scene would be filmed in sepia mode. He is obsessed with his son as he used to molest him and he lost custody to his wife. He feels lonely without his son and feels he would do anything to be with him again. The people who is included names would be shown with his movement. The title of the film would be “ Unattached”. This shows the independence and loneliness this man feels without his family.

InspirationSe7en: This has inspired me because it shows the extent people

would got through to remember and save their family. The opening also shows a man keeping notes/documents on things he did. I want this to be portrayed in my opening but on the wall to show desperation for order and companionship.

Akon-Lonely: This shows how lonely he is that it has taken over his identity and it has made him become “Mr Lonely”. This is how I want my character to be seen.

CastingI have chosen to use my sister shale to be the main character. Even though it would be a man I am going to use her because she is reliable and would take it seriously. It will take heavy make up and the right props to make her look like man but I think its possible.

Tag Line“A man and his shadow”: This shows the

loneliness that his only companion and friend is his shadow. It is also short and brief so it doesn’t give away any part of the film. It has a subtle way of explaining the film.

This is saying should engage the audience and make them ask themselves a question that should be answer later on in the film.

Treatment Genre: This would be psychological thriller. Camerawork and lighting: I would use long shots mainly to show him walking

around the room. Extreme close ups to show even the most subtle movement and enhance it. Medium shots to show jus t the upper body when doing smaller task. I was hoping to use natural lighting and some artificial as it will be filmed during the day.

Music: I am going to make my own backing music. I want the music to be based on the metronome sound. To show time goes very slowly when they are by themselves.

Costume and make up: There is going to use of make up on the character and I will buy my own materials for costume which is going to be a very old and browning robe.

Special effects: Some use of quick flashing images when he is doing something that looks suspicions. Also when the names come in and the title.

Tone: It will be very tense and suspenseful.

Possible MusicI was planning on using hardly any music just a

subtle piano sound with short but load bell noise. I want it to build suspense onto what would happen next. It would sound like this :

make my own backing music.

How it fits into the thriller conventionsThis thriller involves an antagonist which is being

observed by a protagonist for his acts of obsession. on his son.

During the film their would be violent acts of crime and illegal actions as the one protagonist would turn and join the antagonist as he is being blackmailed and has no other choice.

The end does not show any heroic act just another twist and storyline that would hopefully be solved in the sequel.

to be with so he feels abandoned. Lost identity: He no longer has anyone so he feels

like he has lost his identity.Obsession: He has lost his son so he obsesses

about him hoping to one day be part of his life again.Anger: He feels anger because his son left him to

be by himself and he doesn’t think its fair that they can move on without him.
