3. Why Our Short Film Idea Is Good:
Whilst doing a quick google search, and looking at some
information, one of the genres that people liked the
most were action/adventure and suspense/thriller. Our
short film consists of mainly both those genres, because
(if you have a quick look at our story) our story is about a
Widow who seeks help from Detective Shaq when her
husband (Detective Shaq’s partner) was murdered.
