Idea Development For Pitch

To further develop our idea into a prospective film idea, we need to work out who our film is to be aimed at, how much money we will need, our marketing strategy reflecting our audience and determining the genre.

We researched several films which encompassed a similar concept to ours, and noted the genre they came under.

Kidulthood - Drama
Slumdog Millionaire - Romantic Drama
This Is England - Drama
Clockwork Orange - Drama
Bullet Boy - Drama

We've determined from this sample that our film will come under the 'Drama' genre.

Audience
Most of these films feature protagonists that are of a young or teenage age, and in troubled lifestyles: Trifes issues with gang culture and teenage pregnancy in 'Kidulthood'; and similarly with Shaun in 'This Is England' and Ricky in 'Bullet Boy'. In this, modern youths are able to relate to these character. Our script makes a similar connection, troubled youths looking for salvation, and so it would be logical to predict that our film will attract largely teenage audiences.
