Outline of finalised decision on film in terms of narrative and themes


For our film we have decided to create an idea to do with fortune and fate. It will be between 4-6 minutes long; this will show the main character receiving four fates and a conclusion so the film will be cut into five chapters. We are deliberately making the chapters separate as the first four show the character receiving tickets which read a fate, so each chapter tells a short story. So far we have not designed our tickets but we have decided on what each will say.
We have an idea of what our fate machine will look like; we have purchased the wood and are in working progress of getting it made into our machine. We have decided that each member of the group has a responsibility over a section of the film, Karlene is responsible for the first two chapters where two fates are given, I am doing the third chapter where the third fate is given, Adele is doing the fourth chapter where the fourth fate is given and finally Paige is doing the fifth chapter where the character is escaping the clown. We have decided on what props we need and have decided on the script.
However, we have still not come to a decision on our target audience for our short film. Although we need to decide this soon in order to present our characters and scene to fit the appropriate audience. The theme of our film is also undecided, but our subject is based on fate and fortune so we can do research on ancient beliefs and superstitions to help us come to a decision.
