Short Film Story Development
Title
Genre Horror
What 3 visual conventions of yourgenre will you include?
1. Close Ups
2. Extreme Close Ups
3. Dark colours
What will you introduce early in the film to make the audience like/care about your
character?
I’m going to make my stalker look like a nice caring person by showing him help people out
so that they appreciate the stalker and understand him and connect with him on a personal
level. As the filmgoes on I’m going to destroy that bond the audience has with the stalker.
What is the ending to your film?
The filmends with my character walking into his garden to search for what made the noise
that he heard, he ends up getting knocked out by his stalker.
This is because the stalker made a noise by accident and made the person curios as to what
the noise was.
Why is that your ending? What reaction are you hoping to elicit in the audience?
This is my ending because I want the audience to be questioning what just happened.
What are the stakes for your character? What will happen if they don’t get what they
want?
Nothing will happen if they don’t get what they want, because its literally impossible for
them to not get it. If however, he didn’t get what he wanted I think he would probably go
insane.
3 Act Structure; Define each act
Act 1 The stalker begins to follow his “victims”
Act 2 The stalker approaches his victims blocking them from moving.
Act 3 The stalker brings comedy to the filmand creepily walks off leaving everyone
wondering what happened
Dan Harmon’s Story Circle: Reference how your filmfollows it
1. A character is in a zone of comfort
My stalker following his victims
2. But they want something
They just want to get rid of something
3. They enter an unfamiliar situation
They creep up on these 2 lads who are unaware of this person
4. Adapt to it
They realise he isn’t harmful
5. Find what they wanted
They receive the food and he finds happiness
6. Pay its price
He gave some food away to be happy
7. And go back to where they started
He grabs another bag out and goes on the search for someone else
8. Having changed
He is smiling now
