Pre-production Planning by Holly King
Our Narrative idea:
- We originally thought that we could expand on our AS short film idea- of a male character who is lonely and receives kind slightly romantic notes from an anonymous source, who turns out to be a man (this is the twist).
- We liked the idea of having a twist in the short film and also wanted to keep with the idea of having a lonely character as this allows us to empathise with the character more.
- A short film we have studied was Love field by Mathieu Ratthe, we found this short film very inspiring as it used a cleaver twist and also hybrid genres. From the start we think it is a horror film however the twist at the end makes it very uplifting and a feel good short film.
- We looked up other short films with twists however our main influence in deciding on our story was an episode from scrubs, in which we are lead to believe Ben and Doctor Cox are going about their normal lives and only at the end of the episode do we realise Ben has actually died and Doctor Cox was just imagining him.
- We chose to do an emotional drama because we feel it is a more powerful and meaningful for the audience and allows the audience to have more of a connection with the character as opposed to a comedy.
