Treatment Idea 1

Plot

Set in Wem, A teenaged boy walks down the street with the feeling of being followed.

A silhouette appears in the corner of his eye.

He picks up his pace and starts to run down an ally way. ( lose ups of the feet with a mixture of mid shots, with the introduction of drum and string instruments to create atmosphere.)

Runs out of the ally way confused and scared, walks home to talk about what just happened in the ally way.

Mise en Scene

Busy Street to show commotion or a contrast with an empty street.

Dark ally way

Visual feel

Shaky camera for the running as if you were being chased, with an on board camera for the person being chased. To help the atmosphere and the feeling of the movie.

Continuity video

Problems that we faced.

Getting the film from camera to the computer was easy to do, but none of us had any idea of what to do next during the editing process because none of us has any experience in the editing process. The progress that we used was final cut express, which with some help from the teaching staff and fellow students, we were able to edit our film.

What went well.

The filming aspect of the continuity video was easier than editing because we kept on referring to the tory board, whilst tweaking to suit the feel of a particular part in the video.
