Planing power point

1. PLANNING
By Lucy Norton

2. DEVELOPMENT OF MY IDEAS
I analysed the opening scenes of three films, which I felt where appealing to my target
audience.
• E.T-a family fiIm which my target audience may watch alone, with peers or family. I
wanted to make my film more chilling and darker which would appeal to my viewers age
group rather than the whole family
• Jurrassic Park- again family orientated but with slightly scarier themes and realistic
animatronics, that said dinosaurs don’t exist so I wanted my film to be more realistic
• Saving Private Ryan-a film which my audience would probably be introduced to by their
parents by way of educating them on the horrors of war. I preferred to use the notion of
suggestion rather than actual scenes of carnage.

3. MY COMPANY IDEA
I will negotiate a deal with a well known company like Universal or Paramount as my film will
need a big budget as its has special effects in it. They will be able to fund it and they will see
that Sci-fi is a very popular genre that makes a lot of money so why shouldn't’ they invest in
my film. I will release it in the summer as that’s when the big blockbuster usually comes out
and when everyone is off school and work, this will give it a better chance of making a big
profit.

4. MY STYLISTIC INFLUENCES
I am a huge fan of films so I have many style influences. Steven Spielberg is one of them as
he's a fantastic film director, he's brought audiences Dinosaurs, Aliens, huge sharks, true war
story's and may more. I really like how most of his films contain strong characters who we all
love and feel for. I also admire Michael Bay as I love the way he films action to excite the
audience.
