Film Treatment(2mins)


Title: 'Vendetta'
Duration: 2minutes (start)
Audience: It would be a 15 certificate, aimed at people from 15 to early 30's, aimed at a mix of ethnicities - as there are white and black characters, aimed at males because it has pretty girls in it and females because it has a good dramatic storyline, would be a mainstream film as it's a bit of a paranormal styled film and they tend to be mainstream.
Summary/Synopsis:
First 2 mins:
Girl A running through a forest, shot of girl D who's been hung, back to girl A running, shot of girl B dead, back to girl A running, shot of girl C dead, girl A running she trips turns over, screams and screen goes black. (Title of film comes up) fades to next shot.

You see Girl A, B and C walking to school bullying Girl D who is shy and quiet and just tries to ignore them, a boy is just in ear shot and sees what's happening who is angry about it but doesn't react. They all get to school and Girls A, B and C go off to class. You see girl D going to library talking to the boy from earlier, he confronts her and asks why she doesn't stick up for herself, he uses expletives to describe the girls, but she says she doesn't see the point she doesn't want to make it worse. He feels sorry for her and just tries to be nice and asks what music she listens to, turns out to be similar music to what he likes, they become friend and things seem to be ok.
end of the day shot slides across from library to corridor and girl A, B and C leaving. Skips to shot of Girls A, B and C walking down a path home asking where girl D is and still bad mouthing her, boy from earlier again walking within earshot, can see he's angry at how they talk about her - close up of his face.
Girls A, B and C all get home, you see them each on the phone, doing there hair, on the laptop (as they do so titles come up) they're on the phone and see on a social networking site that Girl D has killed herself (as her picture shows title comes up) Girls A, B and C think it's fake until someone uploads a picture of Girl D hung. (end?) Close up of dead girl which pulls out to the scene where the girl killed herself - a forest area.
End

Suggested Elements:
Rhythmic editing with point of view shots and hand held camera.
Wipes used to move between scenes.
Girl hung with a rope in a forest, blood coming out of nose and mouth.
Flash frame of bullies when Scarlett looks at them (not necessarily all of them) they turn a negative/darkened/red colour to imply it's Scarlett that's going to kill them.
