FINAL STAGES OF PLANNING

STORYBOARD

Here is a extract from my completed storyboard to show the format in which I have planned my shots and durations, locations etc. The shots included in the extract show the generic features and elements that i have directly imported from spy/action films, these are shown in close-up conversation over mobile phones to fit it to the modern technology facter of the movie. The faces will be shot with head and shoulder shots and close up shots to show their reaction during the conversation, with one of the people being inidentifiable as shot will not show their full face, just the side of their face and the fact they are wearing sun glasses to add to their shady character, hense fitting into the spy narrative.



AUDIENCE PROFILE

My target audience is going to be mainly mature mainstream males aged 18-30, this is because the use of modern technology and electronics coupled with thrilling chase scenes with flash cars and explosions will attract this type of audience.
The demographic for this target audience would be C1, lower middle class-white collar workers, and C2 skilled working class, blue collar workers.

PLANNING

The opening will begin with a car driving into a town late at night, the driver will park and get out after revealing a gun. He will search for a drop of point on a street and once discovered will find a package with a mobile phone inside of it. After he dials the number on the phone he will have a discussion with a Russian, who will tell him his brother’s alive. After a moment of reflection of this news the todorovian disruption moment will become clear as the ex agent agrees to meet.
