This is the pitch I created for my media film trailer. It shows the general plan for what I want to do, including the plot, characters, locations and the production company.

1. Movie Trailer Pitch

2. General Information
• Title: Not yet decided
• Genre: Psychological thriller
• Target Audience: 16-25
• BBFC Rating: 15
• Budget: £10 million
• Release Date: Winter 2015

3. Film Plot
• There are two friends (girls, aged about 16/17). One of
them has been killed. The other friend becomes the
main character in the film. She becomes very
depressed, but befriends a quiet girl who comforts her.
The two become really good friends, but the quiet girl
becomes more and more like the dead girl. It is shown
that the quiet has an obsession with being exactly like
the dead girl and slowly goes crazy. The main character
eventually figures out that it was the quiet girl that
killed her bestfriend. The quiet girl attacks the main
character. But she manages to escape and the quiet girl
gets arrested.

4. Characters
• The main character- Esther, female, aged about
16/17, school/college student, popular, friendly,
liked my everyone.
• The bestfriend- female, aged about 16/17,
bestfriends with main character, killed before film
begins.
• The quiet girl- Maisie, female, aged about 15/16,
school/college student, very quiet, not known by
other characters, young-looking, killed the
bestfriend.

5. Locations
• A school- classrooms, hallways/corridors etc.
• Graveyard
• House/room
• Woods/forest- dark alley ways, small streets
with lots of trees ect.

6. Target Audience
• My film will be aimed at people aged between 17-25,
because when I analysed my audience survey, this
was the age group that I had the most answers from.
• I chose the BBFC rating 15 because, although my
target audience starts at 17, the only other option
would have been 18. I think 18 would have too high
for my film because it features girls aged around the
age of 15/16/17. As well as this, I looked at the
different age classifications and decided that the
content and storyline of my film would fit the 15
category best.

7. Budget and Release Date
• I think my film would have a budget of around £10 million. In the film
industry, this is a fairly low budget, but after doing research on the
genre of psychological thrillers I found that they are mostly made with
a small production budget by smaller production companies. This is
because they aren’t typically as common, popular or well-known as
action or drama film, which usually obtain a bigger budget of around
£50 million+.
• I gave my film the release date of winter 2015. I chose this date
because I don’t think it is the kind of film that you would see in the
summer. I believe that the film is more suited to cold, dark nights as it
would fit well with the film and the effect. Also, a lot of film premier in
the summer, so by releasing my film in the winter there would,
potentially, be les big blockbuster films coming out. This would mean
that my film would get more advertising space, have less competition
and therefore, hopefully, attract a bigger audience.

8. Production Company
• My production company is called ‘Cliff Hanger’. I
chose this name because it has relevance in the
film industry, and gives off an idea of what sort of
film they specialise in.
• Cliff Hanger is an independent, but fairly
successful film production and distribution
company.
• It typically produces horrors, thrillers and
psychological films, which is why it is the
production company that will make my film.
