My personal short film idea.

The form of my short film is a comedy documentary which is set in a failing high school in England with a bad reputation. There is no specific subject of the short film as it covers all issues that you would associate with in a working class high school.
The basic plot of the 'mockumentary' is that a camera crew and an unseen (female) narrator film various events around the high school and interview key characters. The characters in the short film are two rival teachers, a troubled student with ADHD and a group of popular, bad mannered, out of control girls. The rest of the school are infact a completely real high school who are asked to play along with the actors when they inflict different events on various students/ staff members. The intention of the narrator is to make the audience believe that the short film and the events that are filmed are in fact real.
The narrative point of view is the interviewer who speaks to different people/ characters as she follows wherever the camera crew go. My film will be distributed in cinemas during the advertisements in a certificate fifteen film. The certificate of my film will be fifteen years as it contains adult humour and strong language throughout. I believe that the high school has characters which most people can relate to, which is why the target audience is for anyone who watches films that are certificate fifteen.
