2. Content Outline
In this proposal I will be explaining and showing the different elements
of my short film. I will be outlining these different elements:
• Target audience
• Resources
• Personnel requirements, e.g. cast and crew, team, specialists;
budget; project schedule
3. Target Audience
The audience I will be targeting will be
teenagers and adults from the ages of 16-45.
The reason I will be targeting this audience is
because it is the average age that people who
would watch an action production, also
younger and older generations don’t watch
sort films as much as the age range I’m
targeting do.
4. Resources
In my short film I will need different types of
resources such as production equipment,
properties, costume.
For production equipment I will be using a:
• Canon Legria HF R28 (camera)
• Tribec T650 (tripod)
• Tascam DR-40 Linear PCM Recorder (audio)
• Advid software (Editing software)
For the props I will be using a:
• SVD BB gun
• Army back pack
• Army vest
• Fake blood
For Costumes I will be using:
• Army vest
• Back pack
• Camo paint
• Bandana
• Boots
• Heavy duty trousers
5. Personnel Requirements – Cast & Crew
For my cast I will need 4 male actors to play the part of the squadron
and 1 to be the antagonist.
For my crew I will use a skeleton crew which will consist of a:
• DOP- Director Of Photography
• Grip
• Sound recorder
• Make up
• Editor
6. Personnel Requirements - Team
I will need a team of individuals to
help with the production, these
people would be a:
• Transporter ;so that we can move
equipment the cast/crew around.
• Production Assistant ;this person
will be the runner and get
important things for the cast and
crew.
7. Personnel Requirements - Specialists
The specialists that I would need for my
production would be an editor, DoP and
make-up artist. The reason why I would
need a specialist in editing is so that I can
have good edits in chase scene and special
effect when needed. I would want a
specialist DoP because they will provide
good shots of the scene which will allow
the editor to improve the productions.
Finally I feel like having a make-up specialist
would make sure that the character fits the
scene and it looks realistic.
