Production Treatment for Main Task: Zara, Francesca, Amy and Zeenat

The name of our film will be called 'The Spirit' and the genre is horror/psychological thriller.

The duration of our film opening will be two minutes, however we may film slightly over in order to not cut out any important bits that will make our film opening successful.

The intended audience for our film opening is males and females aged between 15-35 who form the main target audience for our genre which is horror/psychological thriller.

The opening of the film will start of with showing the production company which is called Popcorn Productions and have the logo along with some sound that we will decide on. The film will then start off with a young girl in a room with low-key lighting and the camera will do a high-angle shot of her looking through old photographs, the camera isn't on the girl it will be on her hands flicking through the photographs. However, she stops on one specific photograph which is a picture of her sister who died. The camera zooms into the photo and then does a close-up of her face looking at the photograph. The girl blows the candle and as soon as she does this this there is then an establishing shot of a local, public park (Alexandra Park) and then the camera films from behind her so allow the audience to see what she is looking at. There is then a close-up of her hands as she opens the gates, then there are a number of different shots as she walks down the path towards the grave. Then she just sits at the grave looking at the photograph and the camera is looking down on her then there is a close-up of her lifting her face up and the props used will show how she has become possessed. When she is looking through the photographs at the start, the credits will begin to appear on the screen coming in from the sides, these will include 'Directed by', 'Cinematography', 'Cast', 'Editing' and then the title of the film which is The Spirit. However, throughout the filming/editing we may change certain elements which we think would work better for our opening.

The Props will include contact lenses, photographs and burnt paper.
