Locations

I am going to use a few locations for my Trailer but for the magazine and poster, I want a white background so anywhere with a white background will do.


These are a few ideas of what I would like to include in my film.


The Bridge Scene
I want to use this location for a murder scene. The bridge gives access for a high location and the audience assumes when Sean grabs a character that he will throw him off the bridge. This gives the Trailer some tension and excitement.


Inside of Sean's house
This is for use during the breakfast scene. I think it will create a calm and 'normal' atmosphere for the trailer. This could contrast against the bridge scene that has a murder. The protagonist could be sitting reading the newspaper, watching television or eating lunch or breakfast. This creates an everyday life atmosphere.

Bede College corridors
I am going to use a colleges corridors for one scene as a representation of the separation of the main protagonist and society as two characters will nudge past him in the corridor. The main character will show no remorse for his actions and continue walking. 


Although Sean is portrayed as an adult, the setting for the trailer is not actually a college, I wanted to create a scene of social deprivation for the protagonist so I used a suitable corridor scene.

Target Audience

The target audience for my products is aimed towards people who enjoy british crime dramas. The audience would be class D to C1. I don't think class E should be included as our target audience because I think that pensioners wouldn't be interested in our films. I want the audience to see how Sean is portrayed and to get across the idea that he lives two lives. The trailer does state in some captions that he wants to break free from the bad side of his life and live a normal life. The audience may want to watch this for escapism, to escape from reality or for drama and  general entertainment.


The target audience could also be a male orientated audience who can relate to Sean as a marginalised male, stuck between the chaos and complications of life, or it could also be watched as an escapism from their own problems. The products would satisfy this audience using a similar marginalised male who they can identify with or possibly use the character as an outlet. By doing so, I attract a certain type of male from Connells Masculinities and by word of mouth, the product could become popular.

Brief

Brief

I have decided to do a film trailer with a poster advertising the film and a magazine featuring the film. I have looked at a few ideas for film trailers and decided to do a British Crime/Gangster genre.

I am going to use Sean Watson as the main protagonist for this film trailer as I thought he would create a good "silent character who will not speak out of line". Their characteristics are the same and he is what I imagined the character to be like.

Possible scene
Possible Scene

The trailer will basically outline how the character lives a normal life but also works as a hitman for a local gang. It shows the surpression and how he tries to break away from the gang and live his life in peace but as much as he wants to break free, the harder he struggles the harder it is to escape from it.



The characters will be wearing suits for parts of the film trailer which implies that the characters are part of a gang. I will also be using props such as a gun to create the crime/gangster cliché.

The poster and magazine cover featuring the film will have Sean posing as the main character since the film is essentially all about the main character.
