3. SYNOPSIS
Project 30 (Or Bo) is an immortal man made by the totalitarian world government of
2016. But he's wanted to die for years. Once he escapes he realised killing yourself
(government property) is illegal. Instead of doing it anyway (DUH!) he selfishly
decides to destroy the government and make suicide legal, so he can kill himself.
NOTE: The main plot point is not suicide. The fact the main character want to just a
running joke to emphasise the character tropes. Plot comes mainly from the two
main characters interacting with each other and the government.

13. WHERE WOULD YOU WATCH OUR FILM
Future shorts is the largest short film network in
the world. They work across exhibition,
distribution and experimental event which work
well with the usual experimental nature of
independent films.
Anyone is able to set up a future shorts
screening in 100 cities/40 countries giving
independent creators a large scope to have
Distrify is a DIY distribution service. They offer a
high quality video player which can be optimised for
mobile. This is an advantage because of
technological convergence and the large
amount of time our target group (15-24) use their
phones and social media.
A disadvantage is that Distrify seems to offer no
exposure for the creators content, It just seems like
a Youtube like site you have to pay for.
