Cinematography. 17/02/2014 Notes and Brainstorming

Filmed Drama Project. Green = Further Developed

Green Idea’s elaborated on:

11     A woman wakes up in a dirty basement chained to the wall and wearing very little. She doesn’t know why she is there. A mysterious hooded figure enters sporadically throughout, leaving her with clues as to why she has been kidnapped. She has done something, or seen something done and chosen not to act on it in her past which is linked to her kidnapper. Dun dun dun.

22     A man wakes up in bed next to a woman looking very hungover and confused. He goes to quietly climb out of bed and sneak away but upon searching for his clothes discovers he is actually in his own room. The woman wakes up just as confused as he is. They spend the morning discovering who the other person is. She might be a cougar who has accidentally slept with one of her son’s friends???

33  The main character has lost his young daughter in a drink driving accident caused by someone else. This has driven him to become an alcoholic himself but he is in denial. He is also the councillor to an Alcoholic’s Anonymous group trying to hide his secret. One of the members is very quiet and he has been trying to get this member to open up. The member refuses but finds the man in a drunken stupor one night and ends up revealing that he was the drunk driver in the man’s daughter’s car accident…

These are some possible idea’s for my short film in my cinematography class. They all need work and I am hoping to have selected one by next week and have a working synopsis and character outline by then.
