Unit 24 - Assignment 1

Treatment
The Idea of my short film:
The short film I’m making is based on a group of really close friends that are often looked down upon by other people their age and don’t have strong relationships with the world and the people around them. Until one day they wake up and things take a massive change and give them a giant reality check which makes them all realise that they need their parents and all the other people in the world that are helping them in every day life
The boys in this film are Mike, the sensible member of the group, Tom who is like the spokesman of the group and Rufus who is the dosser of the group. These are teenagers, besides Rufus who’s a 22 year old still in college hence why he hangs around with Mike and Tom. They are talking about how easy their lifes would be if the wolrd just belonged to them, the next morning they wake up to find some of their life essentials not in order such as the washing not being done, dishes not washed and things that they have taken for granted all along. The film is about the lads having weird ideas that they wouldn’t get away with if other people were in the world.
Theme
The theme of the short film is based on freedom and shows an easy life. But it also delivers a message which is basically don’t take things for granted. As the film goes on you see all the plans the boys make but they come across things blocking the ideas that they have and it turns out all the things they have planned cant be done because of certain reasons that are to be seen in the script.

Genre

The genre of my short film is comedy, i want it to be a funny and enjoyable thing to watch, its inspired by actors such as James France, Seth Rogan and Adam Sandler. They are the actors I would want to be in a film like this. Its meant to give the audience a sense of doubt for the boys but not so much where you feel bad for them. More like a sense where you think its funny that things go wrong for them
