Film Production Stripboard


My strip-board is very useful as it shows the order in which I will film for scenes, and also when and where. This will be very helpful for both me and all of my cast members.

Location Release Form


This form is the permission to film at my selected location, saying that I can enter the property with equipment and shoot scenes here.

Storyboard For "House Of Fun"


This is the storyboard that I have used for the beginning of my short film. I have made many changes over time and even annotations, I have also sometimes explained my intentions behind certain shots. This will be very useful doing production.

"House Of Fun" Script




My script was written entirely on the free programme CeltX. This is because the programme makes it very easy to correctly format your script correctly.

Film Treatment

Logline:

A teenage boy's girlfriend is stabbed during a mugging, leading the boy to turn to a life of crime in order to exact revenge on the low-life who ruined his life.

Synopsis:

The Boy and The Girl are a happy and normal teenage couple, until The Girl is encountered by a mugger, alone, while on her way home from a night out. After an altercation, she is stabbed and killed. When The Boy finds out, he becomes a shell of his former self, and is fuelled only by the desire for revenge. He enlists an old friend of his to try and find out who did it, and where they live. They find someone they think could of done it, which is good enough for The Boy. He then reaches out to an arms-dealer, and purchases a gun from him before making his way to the house of the suspect. Once he arrives, he breaks in and terrorises the suspect, who pleases innocent. The Boy doesn't believe him, and commits murder before fleeing the scene.

Characters:

  • The Boy - Harry Fletcher
  • The Girl - Rebecca Cooper
  • Arms Dealer - Jack Fletcher
  • The Suspect - Joshua Teal


Target Audience/USP:

My movie will be targeted at teenagers and will follow the genre beats of a Thriller. It will appeal to the audience due to the all teenage cast, which is not typically seen in the Thriller genre, making it quite appealing to fans of said genre and to people fitting the age group I am targeting my short film towards.
