Film Ideas

Kidnapping: 

Actors: Richards sister, stepmom and dad

Location: Richards house/clapham 

Props: phone (for the phone call) , mail (distraction) , baby toys , a car

Starts: Vicki (stepmom) and daughter playing, she maybe gets a call and goes outside to get better connection/or she goes outside to pick up mail (there needs to be a reason she leaves)

Middle: door left slightly open, man comes (Richard's dad plays the man) and hears baby crying or sees her playing or she crawls out by herself and the man picks her up and takes her. 

End: scene could cut and show maybe the man running away with the kid or in a car going away,

scene could cut again and show the mum searching for the baby

Pros: no other film students have done this before, could be such a success if done properly 

Cons: baby has to act, might not respond well, time has to suit round the babies schedule, if it never works well than we will only have a bit to come up with a new idea

Hitman: 

Actors: someones dad/brother (hitman/man who ordered the hit man) , the person who is meant to be killed, the person who is the wrong guy (sarahs brother)

Location: anywhere/house

Props: a gun/knife , phone , a car? , id , gloves

Starts: hitman gets a text to kill a target that is explained to be Jonathan and is told the house. see him prepare the gun/knife/gloves?

Middle: idea 1 : breaks into a house (picks the lock?) kills the guy who is maybe standing in the kitchen or sees him and is about to call police or something then he gets shot. hitman goes over to him and check his pulse and his id and finds out he's the wrong target

Idea 2: breaks into a house (door already open), searches the house and finds the correct target dead on the floor. he checks his pulse and finds his id

End: idea 1: searches through his stuff finding out he's apart of the government agency. he either runs out the house and calls someone (the guy who hired him) to pick him up and explains he's now on the run or the scene cuts and shows him packing his bags and needing to run

Idea 2: begins to search the house as to why he already been killed. maybe tries to call the guy who hired him but it goes dead straight away. could have a zoom in of someone else coming into the room and shutting and locking the door behind. then shows the hitman spin round and get rlly shocked or both pull out guns and there a gun shot heard

Pros: exciting, very gripping, ends on a cliffhanger

Cons: it has been done before, could be confusing, might need to explain why he needs to be killed, could be too long, a lot of people are needed

End: loads of photos of her gets sent to the women from the man, she is about to go in her house but stops and looks at the photos and freaks out, all of a sudden a bag is put over her head and she's dragged away, the scene ends with the dog left on the door step

End: the girls get off the bus and one is on the phone and u can only hear back ground noise (person on the phone just mouths). they turn up at the new door and they r so excited but they comment about how they cant hear any music. then the door opens and its the drug dealer and maybe a man stands behind them making it impossible for them to run away.
