Horror Film - mostly male audience
For a horror film our idea was to show a serial killer dragging his latest victim into the forest, only to see that when he's leaving the possessed ghost of his victim is following him to seek her revenge.
The opening would show the man dragging a body bag into the forest, only showing shots of his feet walking and hands pulling the bag, showing no face so that the audience can't connect with the character. The reason for making the ghost a girl is that this will appeal more to the male audience but because of the storyline the women watching could connect with the female role in the film.
Action Film - male 18-30 audience
The opening should be almost like a flashback of the day a teenage boy finds out his dad has died in the army but wants to continue with his dads honour by becoming a military officer himself.
Eventually throughout the film the son would start to realize something isn't quite right within the army and when one of his friends/team member life is in danger from a outside group, the same group that killed his father, he tracks them down to kill the leader.
Fantasy Film - children aged 8 - 14
It could open to a classroom where a young girl that doesn't quite fit in at her school is being assigned a short story to write over the weekend, the following week she reads the story out in class only to find that later that day things around her start to change, elements from her story start to come true. The parts of her life that she's including in her stories are changing quickly, she has to continue writing to make the ending of the story and the life around her how she wants it to be.
Romantic Comedy Film - couples
A young girl and boy meet in a bar, he's new in town coming in for his new job, he tries to hit on the girl but she already has a boyfriend, the next day at the girls work there's a new colleague and guess who it is? the guy from the night before. They have the offices next to each other so have to see each other every day. Throughout the film they become closer as friends but behind her back the guy is trying to split her up with her boyfriend. Towards the end she would find out about this and does not want to be friends anymore but the guy would later make a big romantic gesture that makes her realize that she likes him too.
