10 POINT PLAN FOR MY DIRECTION SCRIPT
1) This Film deals with issues of today’s society for instance anorexia, obesity and the world of reality television. These issues are address thought the characters and the locations that the film is set.
2) Though out this film there are many turns between reflection, anxiety, dilution, self doubt, grief and anger each character almost relates to one of these words through the duration of the film.
3) Scene one- sausages cooking in a pan immediately gives the notion that food will be addressed in the next 10 minutes. We then fade into the eating competition banner above the tables, and the sausages become clear.
Scene two- we are introduced into the scene by the presenter who shows us around the set; which then moves onto introduce the contestants.
Scene three- we enter the dressing rooms of each of the contestants and have a quick chat, to get some background and the realisation of the sort of people that take part in reality television.
Scene four- we re-enter the set and the contestants sit in front of there huge pills of sausages.
Scene five- the remaining scenes take place on the main set were we then end the film with the winner and fade to black for the credits.
4) Each scene portrays each character in a different light. We become to realise each characters back-story and with that each scene blends well with the characters mood/ emotion. I.e. when we are seeing the contestants in there secluded dressing rooms the characters open up releasing inner feelings. Caroline is infact shouting at Simon, but when you look at her a moderate breeze would blow her over.
5) Simon, who infact I am changing to be called Hans; an Austrian with only food in his life. Caroline is quiet obviously anorexic or maybe even bulimic as she vomits as soon as the competition finishes. I don’t think she has a lot going for her due to the fact that this spectacle of humiliation is better than anything in her life, plus she is rooting for the cash prize so money is obviously an issue in her life.
Harry on the other hand is only there for a laugh he doesn’t need the money doesn’t care about the competition the people or whether he wins or looses life’s a bit of a game.
The presenter wants out of this job however the only way to bring home money is to do this line of work due to the fact that showbiz is so difficult to get into and to stay anywhere within it, but he desperately wants to go higher.
6) The First Beat in the Film is the sight of the sausage being cooked; for this beat I will cook many party sausages so when they are tossed into the air it gives you a feeling you are about to watch something incredible.
The second beat all are attention is on the presenter as he sets the scene with uplifting enthusiasm.
The next three beat introduce the contestants each character bring a different emotion and response to the competition and the other competitors, this beat makes you want to continue sitting in your seat to find out what will happen due to the drama.
The main scene with in the film contains most of the drama, conflict and panic, therefore most of the beats take place here. This begins with the anxiety of the contestants to begin, the shot of the clock hands moving shows both boredom and endurance of the contestants eating for so long. I think the most significant beat is the point in which Harry wins the competition, Caroline Vomits due to the amount of food she’s eaten. And I added this in but Hans (Simon) falls off his chair and has a heart attack. The Presenter rounds up the show very quickly and we fade to the credits.
7) The Reality of the scene is that they are the reality of life. These people lives are to try and get into the lime light of the world. They will do anything to do something with their lives, to try and be happy even at the cost of their integrity or even their lives.
8) I have done some research on reality television but have found the best way to research is just to actually watch it analyse it and try and use it to my advantage. This has been hard due to the type of people that appear on these show, and the presenters G class celebrities presenting.
I have Researched Anorexia and Obesity however so far all the research has not told me anything I didn’t know; these issues are just to prevalent in today’s society due to advertisement, companies and public image of each other, and the fact parents should pay more attention to their children.
9) I wish to turn the script into a bit of a piss take through adding humours events and changing characters slightly to make more qwerky. Bring the entire thing slightly away form reality and into fiction. But still use all the dialogue and cues form the script I have chosen.
