Hey guys, what
you’re about to read is a treatment: a piece of text that provides a
step-by-step layout of a film. So here’s my film treatment; camera angles,
directions and script included, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did writing it
cos I truly put in WORK on this.
But before we begin I’ve gotta put a disclaimer out there - WARNING: Some of the stuff you may see may not actually be in my later film.
ENJOY!
Film Treatment
Black background, institution - KMA PRODUCTIONS - appears in bold lettering in Silver with a golden outline. The logo then fades out into a protagonist’s eyes (very close up shot). As the camera pans, we hear our character’s voice “This wasn’t how things were supposed to turn out, we’d meant to be having a laugh,” and we see our character’s (Jayden Yusuf) features and surroundings: he’s in a police interviewing room, he’s clothes are shredded and covered in mud, he has a gash to his cheek, and his curly hair is saturated / soaked in blood. There is also screaming and a heartbeat as non-diegetic, incidental audio. Cut to (high angle / eagle-eye shot - camera is grainy / poor quality, symbolising CCTV at a police station) our protagonist, there is little / no audio as we are emphasising to the audience that the protagonist is on his own. Audience hears screams even though we see that the protagonist is alone (establishing shot - colour is now present, quality is good - we have incidental audio getting louder; we also see cuts of POV shots from the protagonist viewpoint, we see a view of his feet running, brief look over his shoulder, the audience also hear heavy breathing as non-diegetic sound). The incidental audio - screams and heartbeat - grows louder and louder until the protagonist screams “ENOUGH!!” - in a slightly higher / deeper voice - and he slams his fist against the table
At that moment, a police detective - DI Walker - enters… (Continue from script)
And that's a movie treatment guys. Same time next week right? :)
