2. Pitch Presentation – The Plan
• The initial idea of my project is to make a short film that has a duration of
around 10-15 minutes.
• My short film will be heavily inspired by the British film-making style, this
means that it will have a little bit of humour while still telling an important
message and a highly stylized look and feel.
• I will ensure that it uses all the advanced techniques that I have learned
such as a variety of camera angles and techniques.
3. Pitch Presentation – The Plan
• The main idea of the story for the film is to develop one character
specifically throughout the film.
• I am doing this as it will allow for a wider range of advanced techniques to
be shown off, following someone’s feelings with the camera can be done
in many ways and leads to an entertaining film.
• The plot of the short film plans to be though provoking to the audience. In
order to keep them on the edge of their seat, I plan to write the story in a
way that makes the audience question every plot movement throughout
until the end.
4. Pitch Presentation – The Aim
• The aim with the short film is to base it around the life of a less fortunate
person in Sunderland, this will be very relatable to my target audience
who are of, or have been, in the same circumstances as the characters in
the film.
• Another aim is to also show off some of the good that Sunderland
possesses, this will mainly show in the cinematography of the film,
showing off the large and grand places in the local area.
• In my opinion, Sunderland is very over-looked and unutilized when it
comes to being shown in film. It’s a big opportunity to allow unique shots
and scenes for my short film.
5. Pitch Presentation – How it fits the
requirements.
• The way I have chosen to do this project, a short film, fits the requirements perfectly as it
covers all the skill sets that I have been practising in this course, whether it be video
editing using the Adobe Suite, pre-production, post-production, shooting professionally
and managing a team of people.
• Especially from researching my past products, I have learned that this project can be
done on little to no budget, if the time is managed effectively and creative solutions are
brought in to fix complex problems, such as shooting schedules and area access
problems.
• It fits the client’s requirements as the use of careful shots will show Sunderland in a
positive light at times in the short film when it needs to be.
6. Pitch Presentation
– How my
research is
helping my
project.
• The research I have done on my client has helped me
in a way that helps me understand how to handle my
project in the location specified by the client.
• The client Sunderland Culture is looking for projects
such as the one that I am creating to show off what
Sunderland has to offer to the media industry; I aim to
create a short film that is suitable for that place.
• Due to this, the research has helped to guide me
through the ways to create my short film and it has
helped me to know my limits in what I can do with the
film.
7. Pitch Presentation -
Summary
• In the end, my project will appeal to the
target audience required by the client.
• The short film format fits the target
demographic of the audience perfectly
as it is a short and fast paced format
that gets a message across without
requiring a large chunk of time to take
in the information.
