Proposal

Concept
My Final Idea for my short film is Idea 1 which Starts with a person who's quite lonely
generally and isolated a lot of the time and out of nowhere they lose there a loved one and
struggle having no one to talk to and ends with him finding the murderer and killing him as
revenge. This is a good idea as I can relate as well as it give lots of options for sound and I
can really connect with the audiences emotions. 

Why are you producing this production?

I’m producing this production to entertain my target audience as well as showcasing my
camera skills as well as my editing ability.

Deadline
10th December 2021 and will be screened on the 14th December

Target audience is 40 to 60 Year Olds.

What they want to see

what my target audience wants to see in my short film and the best way to do that is ask
them. I had a mix of answers with some wanting a "True story" and others wanting
something to make them laugh. I have chosen a almost True Story and have adjusted my
story for my Target Audience.  The way I have adjusted my story line by adding some action
and twists  

What you are creating based from that research

I’m creating an emotional Drama/Thriller which will play with my audiences’ emotions and
create a unease while watching

Where the production will be aired (why – based on target audience)
