The Pitch

Rom-com
The main character; a male American, named Jack who is 19 years of age. He has difficulty finding love as he is not very handsome, as he is not well groomed, with an unkempt beard and rough looking clothes. He is very mindless and unromantic. The major character; an Austrialian female named Nicole who is 20 years old. Her appearence is very smart  and elligent. She has a heard exterier but soft inside. As these two characterics are so opposite to each character it makes it quite ironic that these two fall in love. Jack a working class lad who works in a burger bar, strikes it luckly when Nicole a business women walks through the door. Jack serves Nicole and immediatly there is chemistry between them. As the get talking Nicole tells Jack she is new to America and would  love for someone to guide her around. Love soon blossoms between them.
This changelles conventions as two different classes do not normally meet and beome in love with each other.




Horror
The main character; a male caucuasion, named Tony, who is a 34 years old. He is a strict secondary school teacher, but does not like his job hence his hatred towards children. His passionless attitudes towards his work reflects in  the clothes he wears,  he dresses in dull coloured suits to accompany his wispy uncombed hair. Major character; a 14 year old boy named Conor. Conors personalitity is a very cocky, ignorant and intellectually challenged. He takes pride in his appearence with his short blonde hair, blue eyes and studsin his ears. He is a tall boy, who considers himself a ladys man. The plot; School teacher Tony, takes his Geography class to the park. During the trip, a few children go missing including Conor. Everyone starts to look for them. It soon becomes nightfall. They eventually find the children but dead. Suddenly Zombies start to appear and grab more children. The teacher gets scared and begins to run back towards the school van for safety. He drives away leaving the children to fend for themselves.
The polt changelles conventions as the children do not get saved as they eventually would in tradional Horror movies.




Thriller
The main character; a mixed raced male named Detective Roberts. He works for the police as a top detective, although he has a hidden dark side. He changes his hair as a disguise for when commits murders. He is tall and always smartly dressed to reinenforce his good sameritan image he portrays to keep people unaware of his evil side.  Major character; a regular working class caucasion male. He is uncofindent and finds to it difficult to cope under pressure, aslo he likes to do right by the law and not have any trouble in his life. The plot; Alfie decides to go for a causal stroll in the park, when he comes across a more excluded pathway, caved with lots of trees. Out of curiosity he decided to peer in, he realised something wasnt quite right and went in further, only to find Detective Roberts Murdering someone. Alfie runs out in shock and fright. Some days later Detective Roberts is at the police station talking to his collegues about the murder and how to go about solving it. Alfie decided to tell the police but when approaching the station he meets the eyes of the Detective (the murder to him). Again with fright and knowing it will only be time before he is the next murder victim he runs away.




As a group we decided upon making our thriller movie idea. We chose the thriller, as ideas of characters and possible locations had already started to develop. The thriller movie than became the most practical and interesting idea to work with. Our twist in plot, challenged us and made us believe we could produce a good film.
