'THE FLY' SHORT FILM

'THE FLY' SHORT FILM  'The Fly' is a 6 minute short film about a getaway driver who awaits a bank robbery. He tries to focus but the appearance of a fly makes his wait become increasingly intensified.  The film is set in a car outside a bank. Various props such as doughnuts, coffee cups, masks, a knife, and a gun are used by the man to get rid of the fly. As the film proceeds, each object becomes more intense, and he ends up shooting a bullet through the window of the car to get rid of the fly. He holds a tooth pick in his mouth, which slightly foreshadows the fact that it will later end up injuring him; fake blood is then introduced in the film, and the situation is therefore intensified. The use of the airbag at one point also makes the setting smaller and the man has less space, which adds another element of stress to the situation. The sound of the fly is loudest; it is amplified over the ambient sound of the surroundings. This draws focus to the fly, and...

Research into target audience

My target audience is an audience of the age of the characters in my short film; the film is directed at teenagers. My film consists of elements similar to the Blair Witch Project ; a film about three film students who travel to a small town to collect documentary footage about the Blair Witch. Their film footage is found, and the film consists of the audience watching their footage. The film makers used social media to access their target audience. 67% of social media users are 18-29, therefore social media is a good place to advertise this film. My film is more light hearted and less scary than the Blair Witch Project , and the element of horror only really comes in at the end, therefore people who would probably be interested in my film would be of the age between 13-18.

Research into the theme I am engaging with for my short film  Examples of films about characters making a film include The Blair Witch Project and The Dirties.  The difference is, The Blair Witch Project as a film is the actual video footage, so there are no shots included in the film of the characters actually making the film; we only see what the characters see through the lenses, and what the people who eventually find the video footage see. The camera movement is jerky, and there are lots of point of view shots. The Dirties, on the other hand, includes many shots of the characters constructing, planning an talking about the film.  My idea is complex, so the part of the film in 'Blair Witch Project style' is going to be extremely small (as in two shots, maybe three) I have also been inspired by the short film Over , directed by Jörn Threlfall, who used reverse chronological order for his short film. I am not using reverse chronological order, however I ...
