Genre

My short film's genre is Fantasy. However there are different types of genres due to the story taking place in different shows. I would say any other genres being focussed on are:

• Drama
• Sci-Fi
• Horror

Other ideas for extra footage?

I've had ideas of other things i can do to include in my short film or to have as deleted scenes. 

I've had ideas like:

• Doctor Who
• Sherlock
• Waterloo Road
• Big Brother
• Chase scene 

The only thing i'm concerned about is how to do these scenes but if i know i can or can't for certain, i will make a list of what i will be doing. 

Ancillary Task

Main Character: Joe

My friend, Joe Donnison, will be playing the main character in my short film. I picked Joe because he has a interest in acting and I knew he would be the right person. Joe takes a Performance Studies course that supports his skills in his acting. Throughout the short film, dialogue is only used to have a understanding of the scene whereas others will need to require body language. This is why I picked him because he can pick up characterisation easily.

100th Post: There's More...

Going through my short film, I have the risk of having too much or not enough filming to fit the duration of a short film. Around five minutes or a few minutes longer.

If I don't have enough:

I will be writing an extra script that'll go in-between some point of the short film to add a bit more in the story. The scenes will be different to what I already have planned out so I have opportunity to go different directions with the short film.

If I do have enough:

After putting the actual short film on a disc. I will put deleted scene on another. This will allow to demonstrate the other ideas I have stuck with and filmed. With the deleted scenes, I will also include bloopers and possibly some clips of before and after filming.

Script Update

After finishing my script, I have realised tit isn't exactly the right layout for a script. After going through each scene, I changed the font and removed the line between each scene (reason I done so was to make it look tidy). After change the font to "Consolas", and bold the titles of each scene, things were starting to fall in place.

Not One But Two

 

11.    Street

Joe arrives in a strange, dark street. It looks cold and bitter, making him wonder the type of show he is in. He quickly looks around to see if he recognizes it. He pauses as he remembers what the place is. It turns out to be the horror film he skipped before this mad journey took place.

JOE:

Oh god.

Just down the street, a dark figure appears. Looking directly at him. The dark figure is shown to have a knife. Joe panics to find his way out, he constantly presses the button on the remote but nothing happens. He hears a failure like sound coming from it. He looks around to find a garage door opened slightly. Joe runs towards this as the dark figure runs too.

Garage

After getting away, Joe finds himself in a garage that looks deserted. He puts himself to the wall as he hears the stranger run passed. Managing to find a light he explores to find some sort of way out, little he knows the stranger is behind him. After taking a footstep and hearing another come closer, he turns around to find a knife him. Joe screams then the screen goes to a TV channel change effect, to look like the channel lost connection.

12.   Sitting Room

*Zoom out of the screen* revealing the actual happenings was watched. A guy is shown sitting down, reading a TV magazine, he looks up to the screen and looks disappointed.

GUY:

Is that it?

He then gets his remote and changes the channel.

 

End.
