Aims and Context

My film is about a student who accidentally runs over a girl when answering his phone from the passenger seat. He is emotionally depressed and filled with sorrow, and has also been isolated within the community. The boy is haunted by the ghost of the girl, which will be represented in scenes, until finally the boy admits to what he has done to himself.

Aims: Using cinematography to portray a main character, the protagonist to be an isolated character, I plan to do this through cinematography, using a combination of long shots and wide shows. I also plan to create a realistic flashback sequence using the conventions to successfully achieve this. Also through cinematography I hope plan to portray a realistic car crash sequence again through a variation of different camera shots and conventions.

I will also use sound as a second stylistic to further portray the car crash scene and the ending sequence, I will also use sound as a background noise for certain scenes, such as the flashback to set the tone.

I feel that my target audience of this genre of film is 16+ because of the issues raised within the text.

Context: A short film 3-5 minutes long called ‘Crash’, the short film will be a Melodrama, as it focuses around a main character who has strong emotions, the film will have strong emotional themes.
