The Pitch The first step to a successful movie by Daniel Cronje and Nico Del Pellegrino
The Genre we’re aiming for The Genre we will be aiming for will be a cross-bread of action and thriller. Action – “The word action has more than one meaning in fiction. Action is one of the fiction-writing modes authors use to present fiction. The term is also used to describe a subset of creative works emphasizing action rather than other aspects of storytelling.” Thriller – “Thriller is a genre of literature, film, and television that uses suspense, tension, and excitement as the main elements.”
Why choose a cross-bread? ,[object Object],Thriller Action gives the audience an edge and makes the film more interesting. Both of these together can create a medium budget film creating excitement with good filming techniques – impressive. Iconography – Dark, scary. Stock setting – City, modern.  Stock Narrative – Guns, Constant Danger. Stock characters – Main hero, deceiver Stock characters - Thriller Stocksetting - Action Stock narrative - Thriller Iconography - Action Iconography – Modern/ slightly futuristic. Stock setting – Fiction, different countries. Stock narrative – Hero saves the day, Villain dies. Stock characters – Helpless girl, heroic man, sidekick and gadgets. Action
What’s the Narrative? We plan on having 3 main acts to our story about soldiers in a guerrilla mission. This includes: Half of the characters die at the start – the opening ends with a characters hand on the floor - lifeless. The other half act through towards the end – but in a flashback. At the end it turns out that the half that seemed to have died at the start, actually killed the other half. We will use filming and sound techniques to deceive the audience and reveal at the end creating a very climactic ending.
Is there a setting? We will be filming in fields for the opening. Throughout the middle of the film we will be filming in cities/towns. Towards the end the setting will come back to shock the audience after seeing the effects on the soldiers.
Is there a setting?

Editor's Notes

  1. Flashback is not known until the end. The half that supposedly survives at the start has mental breakdowns etc.
