Group Brief

I am part of a 3 person group, working alongside my fellow media students Oliver and Adam, to plan and produce a short film which will last approximately 5 minutes. After discussing and researching short film ideas, we have decided to produce a short film about 'Obsession'. This idea will consist of a man's obsession with his ex partner and how his need to be with her again soon takes hold of him and controls his life. Our film will be in form of 9 scenes, all of which will show him trying to get back in contact with her by any means necessary. As each scene progresses you see him physiologically breakdown as his desperation increases, soon climaxing to a horrific conclusion.
We are currently discussing the script of the film and producing the story board for each scene. We have also made the decision that each of us will take responsibility for 3 different scenes of the film. This duty will include being the director, writing the dialogue, producing the storyboard and finally editing each scene that we have been set. I believe that this is a good idea as we will all be able to take charge of each aspect that creates and produces the film. The target audience is also a key factor we have been discussing. However, we have yet to identify the target audience our film should be aimed at. We believe we should come up with an agreement very soon so we can make use of appropriate actors and designs which will address the target audience. We will continue discussing this and other areas that need to be decided before producing our film.
