Our Pitch

On the 8th December Jasmine and I presented our pitch for our film opening to the class. We got quite a good response from the audience because most of the class put up their hands when asked if they would watch our film. The feedback to our pitch and idea was

"Its good that its based on true events"

"Very engaging" 

"makes me want to watch it" 

"appealing to a teenage audience"

"good enigmas" 

'lots of research to back it up"

Here are some photos to show of us presenting our pitch to the class.

From doing the pitch I learnt how important it is to really get facts and information correct so that you can convey to an audience your idea. In our pitch we talked about what are opening will be about, what characters we will need and what our setting and sound will be like. When talking about what our opening would include we talked about how we were going to have two scenes going on at once for example we are going to have Genette leaving her house to go on her paper round and are also going to have her supposed kidnapper looking through a box of old kidnappings he has committed. 

We also talked about what characters we would need for example we need a 13 year old girl to play Genette Tate two 15 year old girls to last see Genette and a middle aged man who is meant to be the supposed kidnapper. And after that we highlighted what sound we wanted as that is my job in the filming I explained that we were gong to have diegetic and non diegetic sound. For example for diegetic sound I talked about the voices of characters and the sound of cars on the road and for non dietetic I talked about how we could emphasize the sound of the door clicking as Genette leaves the house.  

For our opening we have four enigmas 

What happened to her ?

Where did she go ?

Was it planned ?

Why did she go ? 

We have also decided to use many camera angles and shots for our opening for example low angle shots of the bike on the road as well as tracking shots of it. when Genette leaves the house we have decided to do a match on action shot of her opening the door and when the bike s left on its own at the end www ill do a close up shot of it and the newspapers.
