Finalised Film Idea.

 “The Unwanted Wish”

My movie is based on a teenager who is turning 18. One of her friends plans a surprise party for her  and everything is going well up until she makes her birthday wish. The wish goes terribly wrong.

This idea influenced me this why I decided to give the movie the title “The Unwanted Wish”.

The film starts with the girl on her computer having a webcam conversation with her friends on the morning of her birthday, it then moves on to the late afternoon when she walks into a room and all her friends are there. They've planned a surprise gathering for her.

Her best friend then brings her to the room where all her friends are then they  sing “Happy birthday”.  After the song, A friend in the crowd shouts to her telling her to make a wish. The birthday girl closes her eyes again to make a wish; this is where everything takes a turn for the worse. It flash-forwards to what happens to her after she makes the wish. Everything is pitch black and when she opens her eyes she is in a different location standing on top of a hill, and on top of that hill there is the view of almost all the buildings in London.in her hand she has a candle, She looks at the candle with confusion in her eyes.This is because she didn't have any cake for her birthday neither did she have any candles in her hand.The camera will then be placed in the main characters hands and she will put it up and it will just be her face and the view from the hill top that we can see.

Camera Shots

·       I will use a shoulder shot to show her talking to her friends on the computer, I will then tilt the camera to show her hand gestures.
An establish shot will also be used at the end to show the surrounding she is in when she opens her eyes after the wish (the hill top)


   I will zoom in on my main character’s face most of the time; this is to show her facial expression.

·         I will zoom in on my main character when she is closing her eyes to blow out the lights on her candles. I will also be zooming in on her eyes when she closes it to make a wish and when she opens it in a different location. Whilst she’s looking at the candle the camera will be zoomed in on the candle and her eyes, this is to present to the audience the emotions running through her.

Setting

·         My film is going to be set in four different locations, the first set will be the main character's  house that will be shown in the film will be my main character’s house and the second house will be when they go shopping, the third one will be in a small where where the surprise gathering will be, and finally the last set will be at the hill top

·         

Costumes:

·         The costumes will use in my film will be very modern and classy. 

·         In the morning as the main character is chatting via web cam, she will be comfortable clothing such as pyjamas or a tracksuit. But later on she will be dressed very vintage and classy.

These are examples of  the costumes my characters will be wearing for my film:

for the Girls something like this:
