In our second meeting we had a look at the script Dowan had written to see if it fit our idea appropriately and if ided to be improved slightly. We also decided our roles within the group.
INT.LIVING ROOM.DAY
THE MAN ’Middle Aged’ Slopping back on the sofa dazed into
the commercials playing on the TV. With the remote in one
hand and a beer in the other. Within the background we see a
lack of personal belongings,dirty dishes on the table and on
the wall a grey patch of what use to hang there. THE MAN
flicks through the channels until he hears one about a new
phone being released. He blankly stares into the TV taking a
sip of his beer.
TV COMMERCIAL
(Roughly what is said, can be
changed of course to take the
piss out of consumerism)
Are you bored of the phone you just
bought? Do you want to Impress your
fake friends on facebook? Do you
want to splash a lot of cash on a
phone that does the same thing as
your old phone does?
THE MAN continues to stare aimlessly into the TV, taking
another sip of his beer, and burps as he starts to seem
satisfied.
TV COMMERCIAL
If your answer is YES, YES, AND
YES. Well this is the phone for
you. Order online now and receive
1% off YOUR phone.
(Fast Dialogue you hear at the
end of adverts)
Terms and conditions apply. Please
do not read them as we will screw
you over.
THE MAN smiles blindly at the TV and picks up his phone in
order to purchase the new phone just advertised. Looking
down at his phone we see THE MAN purchase the phone at a
ridiculous prize (£600 for example) After the purchase he
logs into Facebook and makes a statues about the phone.
THE MAN
(V.O)
Just brought the new I-diot 7
phone. Best purchase I’ve made in a
long time.
THE MAN continues to stare at the phone screen when
instantly he starts to receive several likes and comments.
FACEBOOK FRIENDS
(V.O’S)
- Well done mate! - I love that
phone! - You’re so lucky! - OMG I
want that phone.
As he continues to receive likes and comments as he smiles
ecstatically. Seconds later we hear the sound of THE MAN’S
doorbell ring. With his phone still in his hands -
POSTMAN
(SHOUTING)
DELIVERY!
He instantly throws it behind him as he gets up to answer
the door. We follow the phone as it lands into a big pile of
phones on the floor.
Because we had a simple character profile and basic set out of the campaign, Anne gave us some feedback to think about.
Looking at the feedback, we want the main character to be younger, in his 20's instead of mid aged as we thing this was appeal/ be more relatable to the audience this campaign is aimed at.
My role in the group is the producer. In pre production I will assess the risks of building the set as well as shooting. I will all create a schedule.
