LO2: Concept/treatment ideas

Narrative 2:

The start of the narrative for the film trailer ‘Mr Jones’, we see a group of students in a secondary school talking about what they have seen in the newspaper, which is a chance to win a cash prize to go discover what happened in an abandoned house, where previous the couple Mr and Mrs Jones lived. However, nobody knew about what happened to the man of the house Mr Jones after his wife passed away and nobody saw him since. The students get together with a group of cameras and sound recorders as they prepare for their outing at the house. They soon realise as it isn't what they were expecting as the house is spookier and frightening as they thought. The students however, can feel the ghostly spirit of the man himself and know he isn't happy about their presents in his house. The all experience frightening events within their stay, as some students are strangled, tortured, possessed and dragged throughout the darkest corners of the house. Students see their chance to win some free cash by what they think they will be spending a normal night in this abandoned house however they have no idea what they are getting themselves into as the spirit of Mr Jones still lies there after 20 years.

Narrative 3:

At the start of the film trailer ‘Outbreak’, we follow a scientist called John Bennett who lives at home with his parents and has no intentions of leaving the family home, being 34 years of age. The outbreak of Ebola reaches to the UK and gets out of control as people are rising from the dead and out to get the flesh. John uses this as an excuse to stay inside and continue video gaming and also trying out different experiments in his basement. However, something changes in John’s mind as his family are attacked by the Ebola patients what gives John the will power to go out and cure this virus as he has the ability to do this. As he sees the light for the first time in a few years, we see John trying to survive the outside world as well as trying to fight off the Ebola patients. He meets people along the way who are just as dumb as him who are trying to survive this outbreak also. We see John trying to get into the University that is at the other side of the city and we see them fight their way through the difficult outbreak

Our final idea

The narrative that we will be choosing is narrative 2 as this would be easier and more entertaining to make and the narrative 3 maybe too difficult as this would include too many actors into the film trailer with too much work for makeup and this wouldn't be able to get completed in time for the deadline. Narrative 2 would be more suited to our target audience than narrative 3 would this is why we chose to put forward this idea.
