Pre-Production Planning by Chloe

MY ROLES

I have been appointed to write the script, and to write the synopsis. I hope my experience in performing arts will aid me in writing the script. I have also volunteered to be chief casting director, using my connections with the local performing arts community.

SYNOPSIS
Here is the synopsis for our film titled 'Sunlight'

"The story begins on the one year anniversary of a sixteen year old girls disappearance. In her room, an upset sister talks on the phone to a relative about the missing girl, giving the audience a few facts about the disappearance. After talking the shot cuts to an unknown man, walking through a train station and getting on the train, looking at the picture of the missing girl. The film then unravels the disappearance of the girl, with an unexpected twist at the end."

COSTUME
The following pictures show the ideas for the two characters costumes. Although these items of clothing wont be the final items we used, they are example pictures of the type of clothing we are looking for.

Male:

 The suit clothing give the character a sense of power and authority.

However the shoes, ear buds and coat are more fashionable and suggest the character is outside of the law.

Female:

 The old jeans and creased jumper will show the characters lack of care in here appearance, on the one year anniversary of her sisters disappearance.

Her ruining make up and scruffy hair also show her upset.

The Script
Here is the script for the first half of the film;

Dialing tone - Phone rings four times.

Do you want to come over? We could do something, raise awareness or -or go down to London and-
She's gone. Face it. Yes, I miss her but she chose to leave.
No. No she never chose to leave she was taken! I know it. She would never just go, she-
Tara. She's gone. I loved her but we need to move on with our lives. I know I have.

Pause
