short film proposal

i was thinking about doing a short film on a bullies point of view because people usually see the point of view of somebody being bullied never the the bullies story. to get the inside story of a bully would make it easier for people to understand what happens and why they do it. some people do bully other for fun but there is usually a reason and my short film is going to help people understand what those reasons are.



Below are a few reasons why bullies behave the way they do:

People can direct frustrations, hurt, anger and difficulty at home or in class to you by bullying. 

Lack of attention from friends, parents or teachers can make a person bully you, just to feel popular and seen as ‘tough’ or ‘cool’ and in charge.

Some kids have learned bullying from others (parents, brothers or sisters, friends).They have seen them getting their way by being angry or pushing other people around. They believe that by putting fear in you, they will have the best shot at everything in school or in your neighbourhood.

Some people also do that because they are victims themselves.

Bad up-bringing at home can make people insensitive to other people's feelings and emotions. They are happy to see their classmate depressed, sad and hurt. 

Watching a lot of violent films (movies and TV), and video games can make a person try out violent things. They usually try them out on people who appear smaller or weaker to them.

Short film idea's1

• Mythical creature
• secret disease or illness
• everyone is dead apart from two people
• psycho killer
• violent friends
• talking animals
• wonderland
• secretly mental disorder
• secret party
• secretly tired
• monsters
• Ed Gein

my favorite idea is the secret illness because i have a lot of idea's and i know what to do.
people having a secret illness and telling nobody so they can die alone is sweet but selfish because the families would want to say good bye. another good one is Ed Gein's story in 2 mins because Ed Gein was a secretive man and nobody should of found out.

the most shots that were used were close ups and it goes into an extreme close up when he enters a fantasy.
i think the sounds that were used were okay for the short film.
there were too many cut aways in the short film. i think the meaning of that was that he is delusional and he thinks everything will go wrong.

i didn't like that short film because it was boring and it only had 1 funny part in it.

Ashes- Sophie black

the shots that were used in this video were

• close up
• extreme close up
• mid shot 
• extreme close up 

The shots were used more then one because the short film was sort of showing her feeling trapped in a relationship that she no longer wants to be in. There is a wide show in the short film but its only about 5 seconds to 10 seconds long.

the sounds that were in the short film were something you would find on a horror movie because of the fear she has of being with the man she is with and it looks like she feels dead inside when she looks at him. you can hear a screeching sound when the scenes are changing to her nightmare and his reality.

i thought the short film was creative but it did get a little confusing when it kept flicking backwards and forwards out of the way she see's things or her dream.
