Name TBC


By Mark Northcott, Thomas Ryder, Arthur Scholes-Furness and
                       Thomas Riley
Genre
• We are going to create a hybrid
  of the Thriller genre. It will
  comprise of both sub genres
  crime thriller and action thriller.
  We have chosen this hybrid
  because it is on the edge of your
  seat action.
THE PLOT
The year is 2015 drug related crime is at an all time high. Law enforcement
   officers are struggling to keep the peace. It’s outer city Manchester, The
   Greater Manchester police department are out on patrol, when they are
   called out in pursuit of a notorious drug Lord. The film starts near the end
   then cuts back to 2 weeks earlier where many people have been dying due
   to increased drug use. Due to this increase Greater Manchester police
   have recognised this has to come to an end sooner rather than later
   leading them to tackle the problem head on. Intel suggested that there is
   a King pin in hiding within the local area who is the cause of the wide scale
   distribution of the drugs to various gangs. To tackle the problem the police
   put the most feared tag team on the case, there job is to go round each
   and every gang to collect vital information on the King pin to bring him
   down before it’s to late.
How will this appeal to the audience?
This will appeal to the audience, as it will be high
  action, none stop thrill ride, all the way through.
  It will keep the audience on the edge of their
  seats and they would not want to look away
  incase they miss a thing. The hybrid genre will
  allow the audience to experience a thriller at its
  best. The opening sequence has to grab the
  attention of the audience that is why we are
  doing an adrenaline filled opening to get the
  audience straight into the film.
Opening sequence
• Are opening sequence will start at the heart of
  the action where the police duo have found
  the last gang member who has Intel on the
  where about of the King pin’s hideout, we are
  doing this because it is highly effective at
  keeping the audience interested and want
  them to keep watching to see the outcome
  and the events leading up to the resolution
  We are starting at stage two of Todorov’s
  theory of the story.
Introductions to the film
• The opening sequence will introduce the main characters
  so the audience can build up a relationship with each
  character to help them understand the rest of the film.
  Also the audience will understand from the start the
  hybrid genre, which introduces the narrative at the same
  time. The narrative is introduced because having the end
  at the start allows the audience to know what's
  happened but not why, which creates confusion ( a
  thriller convention). The product doesn’t necessarily
  introduce the location because the hideout is supposed
  to be unknown but all will become clear throughout the
  rest of the film.
What are the representations?
• We are representing some of the characters very
  stereotypically this is because the audience can
  decide for themselves if a character is the hero or the
  villain. The police duo are going to be like any other
  heroes but without the powers meaning they rely on
  their own ability whilst not appearing immortal
  which means that anything could happen to them at
  anytime. The villain is very similar but doesn’t
  understand the right and wrongs of the law making
  him a dominant force.
What are we hoping to achieve?
From the opening sequence we hope to set the
 tone for the entire film letting the audience
 know if the film is suitable for them or not.
 The mood isn’t going to be dull or sad, its
 going to be excitement due to the high octane
 action. Also hope to set the mood in the
 opening sequence and keep it like that for the
 entire film to stop the audience losing
 interest.
