FILM: Developing a pitch


Developing the pitch was the part when we actually began deciding what our film was going to be about and how to the story was going to be structured. We had to have a beginning, middle and end within five minutes so we could only have one story line. This made it easier as we could focus on the one idea and adjust it to create the clearest yet most interesting story we could.

We began to pitch our ideas. A few examples of the ideas we came up with were:
- A girl being stood up at a cinema,
- The story of a play ground of young teens,
- A girl getting ready
- Lost in the woods
- Abandend house
- A girl wanting to be famous

We decided amongst our group to do the story of the girl getting ready. We decided what our character would look like and how we would present her in the film to direct her to our target audience making our film successful. We also had to think of the characters interest and hobbies, because although this information would not be shown in a five minute film, yet it has some kind of impact on how she will be represented.




We then had to arrange the plot, knowing what our film was about and how our character would be represented, the next step was to plot the story so we could have more of an idea as to what our film will be aiming towards to lok like as a film.
