Film ideas




  • Title
  • Genre
  • Synopsis (a brief overview of how the opening would play out; remember that the opening must only be 2-3  mins long)
  • Possible locations for shooting
  • Strengths
  • Difficulties
  • You could also include images of locations or anything else that is relevant.


  • Title: ?
    genre: drama 
    Synopsis: rain, birds eye view medium close up of face, person laid on bed, second shot: long shot of the bedroom showing bed window and person, legs off the side with feet on the floor. close up shot of the rain drops falling down the window. Shouting voice can be heard shouting the protagonists name, protagonist walks into the room a group of teenagers can be seen planning and conspiring over something, messy papers and low lit lighting is shown. The audience should wonder why protagonist was distracted, they are also shown to be awkward and uncomfortable.
    Possible locations for shooting: Volunteered house
    Strengths: Can be filmed easily, accessible location, props aren't extravagant,
    Difficulties: The cast, the right lighting

    Title: ?
    Genre: thriller(?)
    Synopsis: man running from something  through the moors, dramatic music is played, dramatic shots of him and the landscape, follows him stumbling through trees and uneven ground, either looking back on something or looking forward purposefully. Shots of the landscape can be seen with a superimposed double exposure of the side of the protagonists' nose. This creates a personal feel connecting the audience to the protagonist, as it looks like the audience is viewing the the landscape through their own eyes catching a glimpse of the nose that you wouldn't normally notice. A heavy sound of a heart beat and muffled voices could also achieve this. The muffled voices and sounds adds mise-en-scene/genre.
    Possible locations for shooting: Ilkley moor, other possible country sides, abandoned rural/urban areas
    Strengths: easy location , only needs a tiny cast, can use natural lighting
    Difficulties: editing and sound to get acquired effects

    Title: The Shirbit Culture 
    genre: fantasy 
    Synopsis: Children running and playing in an old house(?) one child hides from the other under a window box seat, shouts of a strict adults voice can be heard, shouting the child's name and telling them to come, child pushes further down into box, falls through bottom, child screams, they appear in an underground tunnel. Tunnel is covered in warning signs pointing up (to the window box), child is scared and confused, they follow a path of tiny lights and open the door into a festive room with two elf like creatures arguing.
    Possible locations for shooting: old house, 3 walls of a large cardboard house, underground tunnel, old style room in old house.
    Strengths: smaller cast, mystical 
    Difficulties: costume for elf like creatures, location for underground, children as cast
