2. Based on the film ‘Alice in Wonderland’by Lewis Carroll. Our idea is basically a twist on the Alice in Wonderland story. However, Alice is not the main character, the White Rabbit is. The difference with our short film is there is a difference to the dated ‘Alice in Wonderland’ characters. The modern twist..
3. Our characters are all human, living in the city of Sunderland.Although they aren’t exactly the same as the Alice in Wonderland characters, they all have the traits and characteristics.
4. Mr. White in Sunder-land is a comedy.The idea is an adult take on a children's classic. The twist in the story is a positive one. Much like the award winning short film ‘Sign Language’. Disappointment has seeped through the film which makes the audience empathize towards Mr. White, but not losing that happy fairy tale ending.
5. Our short film will be shown as a special feature on the Alice and Wonderland DVD.This will enable us to target the audience that will be interested in our short film.And also at London short film festival.
6. Our short film will be advertised along with the Alice in Wonderland DVD.We also plan to make Posters to help advertise our short film.
7. We did some audience research and found out that.. Most of our audience prefer reality to fantasy. 70% of audience prefer comedy. 100% of our audience have at least heard of Alice in Wonderland. 94% have watched or read the book Alice in Wonderland.
8. We’re appealing to a more cultured audience. By using references to Alice in Wonderland it helps our audience almost relate to the short film.
9. The basic synopsis of our short film is a series of unfortunate events that happen to Mr. White, all relating to him being late, as this is the main characteristic of the White Rabbit in Alice and Wonderland..
10. First he misses an important meeting with his two business partners, Barry and Larry Tweedle. (Based on Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum) He then misses an important date with his girlfriend Alice. Finally he misses his best friend’s tea party. So everyone’s pretty annoyed with him.
11. He ends the day on a low, thinking everyone hates him and as it’s his birthday tomorrow, he’ll be spending it alone, he goes to bed and cries,
12. He wakes up, still sulking about the previous day and slumps down the stairs. When he walks into his living room, all of his friends are there celebrating a surprise birthday!A happy ending.
13. Our story is happy, imaginative and contains a twist. All these features are popular within our audience according to our research.
14. Thank you very much for your time.I hope you will support us with our brilliant short film.
