written synopsis

Section One: Content


In my story Mafia, a Mafia leader with mental health issues loves to kidnap females and force them to determine whether they live or die. They are stuck in his mansion trying to figure out which of the women is the mafia with the mafia leader himself and face obstacles of being killed or backstabbed. Only one survivor lasts in my thriller, and she figures out who the imposter is out of the females. Sofia is 19-year-old yoga instructor and she got kidnapped when she was walking home, she's the first victim her throat gets cut when she enters a room thinking she was safe. Maria 19-year-old is a university student that got seduced by him when she was at a club, he took her to his car and kidnapped her, she disappears mysteriously. Jessy was Maria's best friend, and she went looking after and gets shot in the process (Maria doesn't know this). Linda is a 22-year-old kindergarten teacher that thought she was going on a blind date however she gets kidnapped stabbed by the Mafia man himself.  Mabel 23-year-old had been his girlfriend for 6 months, and he supposedly switched on her and made her play his game.

Response to the client brief



 explanation of demographics 

The information that I have about my audience is that this thriller film is aimed towards 16–24-year-olds. I might include in my thriller film a psychopath. This will appeal to the audience as it's something that many people in this age range find interesting and are drawn to. The advantages there are to making my thriller for this audience is that I know that people of this age range will want to watch this film and be interested in it also. The challenges that I foresee making my thriller for this audiences are not to make it like every other film as there's many thrillers which includes a psychopath and have the same or if not similar storyline. This will be a challenge as I need to make my film standout/be unique than all the other thriller films that include a psychopath.


conventions

The thriller conventions that will have to include in my work is murders/deaths as well as violence. I might include each convention by for murders is having a psychopath on the loose going around and murdering people. I will include violence by the victims try to get away from the psychopath or the psychopath trying to catch and run after his victims which may possibly lead to them getting injured. Another convention that will include is crime, this is because in the film that I'm creating is a crime thriller which is a major part of the film.


Industry requirements

The media organisation I've chosen to produce my thriller film would be Netflix as they are the second largest entertainment company it has published millions of their own and other organisation such as Disney. It started in 1997 by Reed Hastings and Marc Randolph in California, it's a worldwide media company everyone from around the world can go on it. One advantage of working with this company is they have made many famous actors and movies go famous they are a well-known media for getting people to watch I believe I can use this to my advantage and publish my film, a disadvantage would be that my film won't be able to get published in certain countries also the age range will change for them. BBFC would put my target audience as 15-24 because in the UK there is no 16.


medium 

My medium will have Netflix text as they are the ones, I've chosen to produce my thriller film.
