Treatment of main task







Duration


Title: High Rise Fast Fall: 2mins


Audience


Our target audience mainly is targeted at males targeted around the age 18-25 mainly due to its story line, plot and location.


Resume


Our film is based around the idea of a man that had gone to prison money laundering and being gang affiliated. Coming out of prison to be met by a couple of his old friends (gang member and business associates of money laundering but fortunately he never got caught and Biggy the main character took the blame). He is dropped at his house where he spends the day trying get back to his life again to find his girlfriend currently not in the house. During the night the house is broken into and 3 masked men run into the bedroom. The man try’s to fight them but ends up being shot and becomes helpless as the men try to look for Biggie's money. The story moves on 2 days at which point the man wakes up in hospital and realizes his fiancée is gone he gets up and rushes out the hospital. To then receive a phone call from an unknown man who tells him he has his fiancée and laughs.


Props


Bag




· Letter (Note from Biggies girlfriend) this prop because handy because this gave us a chance to add a voice over the scene when Biggie finds the letter.




· Grey or black jogging track suit this prop we used because of modern stereotypes of people in hoodies are usually up to no good.




· Car (FIAT GRANDE PUNTO SOUND). We used this car because it was the only car available and we didn't have no other vehicles available but we are the only group who most likely thought of a prop such as a car so overall it was a good idea.




· Suits we used this clothing because most of our research ideas about 'Gangster Movies' and the props (the clothing) they seem to mainly use suits the idea of smart dressing not only promote intelligence but also respect .










Suggested elements


Filmed strange ways prison unfortunately we wasn't allowed to film in the prison of get them to open the door of our establishing shot due to the short notice so we had to work around it, so Fidel walked outside the prison toward the car were Clive and Dominic were stading


· A house this seemed like a typical location and place an ex-convict would go to after he's been released from prison we used Fidel house since it's usually empty this gave us an advantaged from recording and filming whenever time or day.


· Typical street


Women a key element within the film this element was thrown away since we couldn't find any willing actresses we found a way around it by make a letter from Fidel's gilfriend in the movie saying 'I have gone to my sisters'


Costumes suits and track suits image is important in our production because we wanted to achieve an effect of looking like gangsters I thought using the using the suits worked quite effectively most movies what contains gangsters wear suits. 'American Gangster' and the iconic movie 'Godfather' both use suits clothes are an important factor in gang culture and in life in general the better you are dressed you're assumed to be better off financially.


Recording days


The number of days it will take to film is roughly around 6 or 7 depending on when we can meet and editing we will estimate will take about 2 to 3 days. It took two days to film however many shots had to be retaken or removed thorugh editing using the program 'Final Cut Pro' on the Apple Mac's
