Our Pitch for An Average Day

Pitch for An Average Day?

Location: Car Warehouse office area

Time: 4pm

Actor: Kieran Tyler as Eddie Taylor

Crew: Connor McGowan as Director

            Stuart Clifton as Editor

            David Hoyle as Cinematographer

Genre: Drama

Plot: The idea of our film is to create an enigmatic experience for the viewer. The idea is that Eddie goes to work and as he gets started. His emotions start building up, and he begins to get angry and throughout the film

There are clues to show why he might get angry and upset and the phone and bracelets are the only clues to help.

These are used to get the viewer to start thinking of possible reasons why he is angry and upset. Religion? , Relationships? Family member died? Who knows?.

And to finish off the film he smashes up the monitor in anger and walks off, to a fade in black background, with ‘An Average Day?’ appearing in white font.

Influences: There were many different trailers and films that influenced us in making this film. But one that stood out was the trailer for a video game entitled 'Dead Island', as the whole trailer backwards in slow motion, with a very calm piano recording in the background. This calm music is a very big contrast to what is actually happening in the trailer, as it is very violent.

Another big influence is from the film 'The Shawshank Redemption'. Tommy (a very aggressive character) is trying to do an exam, he runs out of time, and hasn't finished, his makes him very angry and so he screws up the test and throws it in a bin shouting and screaming at Andy (the main character, trying to help him pass). This scene, although not a vital part of the narrative, is quite hard hitting, and we wanted to try and shock our audiences with an aggressive character, such as Tommy.
