Now you have finished your pitch, you have been successful in getting your idea commissioned by
Rock Star Games! You now need to write a TREATMENT, which explains how you will produce your
games forum
My idea is to make the Barmy Forums, a website dedicated to helping gamers with game
walkthroughs, tips and tricks. Hopefully, I will be able to make this forum page very popular among
gamers.My target audience is going to be 16 – 25 who like action, shooters, adventure, horror games
and play the games that they would suggest.
I would need to buy up-to-date equipment.These would cost quite a bit;

The way I will research the content for my forum by creating surveys and posting them on twitter
and Facebook, then if I make money from the YouTube videos, I will hire a researcher to find out
what is popular among gamers.The way I’m going to market my forum is through social networking
on Twitter and Facebook. Hopefully this would bring a good percentage of users to the forum.My
gamers forums will be successful as gamers are always looking for help whether it be for
achievement guides or walkthroughs. Also I will be posting the videos I upload on YouTube on the
forum page and they will be fun walkthroughs/achievement guides.
