2. A paranormal activity.. doubled...
The idea of our film, is that it will include a young innocent girl called Rosie; played by
Chloe Grace Moretz, living a normal childhood, doing the normal things a child
should do. It will focus on her going through a stage of having an ‘Imaginary
friend’, who she enjoys being with and likes the company of this friend. As the film
progresses, unnatural events start to unveil, people start to go missing and shows
the difference of the young girl and how she slowly looses her innocence. She
starts to get obsessed with her friend and becomes quite psychopathic over it, as
she won’t leave her room and won’t communicate with anyone. Her mum
becomes worried and scared of her own daughter and doesn’t know what to do.
By this time the audience will feel like its the ‘imaginary friend’ that’s committing
the un-natural crimes and having thoughts of it being a Demon, yet by the end of
the film they’ll finally realise that it’s Rosie doing the crimes herself, as she is
possessed by this demon. The film will show the events happening discretely and
how Rosie doesn’t realise what she is doing is wrong. Will she be possessed
forever? What will happen next?
3. • The reason we have chosen to call our film ‘Reflection’, is because it’s
based on the young girl, Rosie, and how her ‘imaginary friend’ is the
reflection of herself, because as the film resolves it shows that it was her
all along doing the crimes and is possessed by the demon and looking in
the mirror she see’s the reflection of herself, yet it’s the demon inside
her.
4. The genre of our film will be a supernatural/
physcopathic horror, which will consist of many spine
chilling events through out.
The film that has inspired us to choose this genre for
our film is, Paranormal Activity.
Our film will be based in a small, abandoned country -
side town, in England.
5. • The target audience for our film will be ranged from the ages
of 15-35 and rated a 15.
• The reasons for our film being targeted at this age range is
because teenagers would be interested in this type of horror,
and if it was rated any younger, younger children could get
disturbed by this and wouldn’t understand as much. The
reason for it being aged up to around 35 years old is that
these type of genre film almost always appeals to majority of
people, as they may like the frill and excitement of the events
taken place.
6. • Our film will be released in the Winter (September-
December). The reason for this will be, that the cold weather
will add to the atmosphere/mood of the film, making it more
scary and the cold weather usually drives people to the
cinema.
7. • Our film will be quite a high budgeted film, but not as much as
high budgeted films that consist of special effects.
• We are expecting to have well known famous actors in it, so
we are aware of the cost they would be to feature in our film.
• The film budget of our film would ranged to 15-20 million.
8. Rosie (young possessed girl)- Chloe Grace Mortez
Rosie’s mum- Anne Hathaway
Doctor/Psychiatrist- Colin Thirth
9. • The reason for the stars that are going to feature in our film are, firstly we have chosen Chloe
Grace Mortez as she is known for her talented acting skills at such a young age, being in the
likes of ‘Kick Ass’, yet we are aware that this type of film has a very different genre to the film
that we have made, yet we feel that the audience would be interested in what she would be
like in a film like ours. She will play the young possessed girl, as she is known for her acting
skills and would fit the part perfectly as she has an innocent girly look.
• The reason for choosing Anne Hathaway as the mother of ‘Rosie’ is because she is a very well
known, likeable actress and would fit a motherly part. We are aware that both her and Chloe
Grace Mortez are American, yet they are able to put on British accents which would make
them more likeable as actors.
• Finally, the reason for Colin Firth starring in our film Is because he is a well known, British
actor and is very likeable by the country, and will be playing the doctor/Psychiatrist, as he
would play a very serious role and could bring very, very small elements of comedy into the
film. These are all very different actress’ and actors yet we feel would work well and would
appeal to the audience.
10. The director that we thought would fit best to our film is
James Wan, the reason for this is because he directed films
such as, Insidious, Saw and Dead Silence. All of these films
are examples of horror movies, and even though James Wan
is an Australian director, we feel he could work well with a
British film, and would work perfect with the plot of our film
as the likes of ‘Insidious’ is very disturbing and frightening,
just like our film.
