The document discusses the research and influences on the filmmaker's project. They will be creating a film trailer and plot about a lone character isolated in a post-apocalyptic world with little dialogue. Key influences are survival films like The Road and Cast Away that focus on a single protagonist, as well as post-apocalyptic films like The Road and Mad Max. Films with very isolated characters like Moon and I Am Legend also served as influences. The filmmaker's idea incorporates elements of the survival and post-apocalyptic genres to tell the story of a lone survivor in a destroyed world.
