the pirch i made m k

1. PITCH
By Joe Cole

2. What my project is
• My project is a movie in the same style of Four Lions
a spoof documentary.
• It will be a parody movie about modern issues and
things that go on everyday life that society accepts as
normal. The movie will make people think and laugh
using satire humour.

3. What will be in it
• The main character is a 17 year old called Harry and its his perspective
that we will see all this craziness from. He is joined on this journey by his 3
friends Zander, Taylor and Joe it is set in modern day England.
• In the film Harry and his friends will have to encounter all manner of
stupid stuff that modern life now accepts as normal. The story will contain
a cyber bullying, social media challenges, medias addiction to celebrity's
and criticism but done in a black comedy .
• The film will take the form of sketches put together with a story running
behind it.

4. what's in my movie?
• my movie is going to make to make fun of social
media challenges and how people blindly follow
them like the don’t judge me challenge, ice bucket
challenge and necknominations. It will be about a
teenagers struggle to fit in and how by not following
the trends you can be ostracized or by following the
trends even die!!

5. What it is similar to
• With a very cynical humor in the same vein as
other black comedy & parody films like Hot
Fuzz, Life of Brian, South Park (Bigger , Longer
and Uncut) and Team America.

6. Who is it for?
• A movie for everyone to enjoy, as it doesn’t
hate on one group it hates all groups equally.
• The audience of the film will be 16-55 and
mainly male
• It’s a movie for the thinking cynical man who
like to make fun of sensitive topics

7. How I will make it
• It will be a very simply made movie, camera work will also be very
simple, using Four Lions like camera work. By this I mean a mixture
of found footage, home made footage and camera work.
• It will have a fake documentary look about it, achieved by using
hand held and basic cameras for when the characters want to
record themselves. I will also use and high end cameras to give a
different viewer perspective ie like in Four Lions when they switch
from them making their own armature terrorist video, to a shot of
the room that they are making it in.

8. What will it look like ?
• It will look like a spoof documentary and sketches
very realistic and almost home made, so a
mixture between Four Lions and Life of Brian, as
it’s going to use Four Lions for its camera work
and the general look of the film but use Life of
Brian’s storytelling with a lot of skits with a over
arcing story.
