Treatment.

A List of the equipment we are going to use:
 - HD camera
 - SD card
 - Microphone
 - Tripod
 - Final cut pro
 - GarageBand

Detailed account of the movie :


The movie starts with a heartbeat/Montage with credits showing Alfred dropping the bag. Then the main character (Alfred) has dropped the bag and is on his way home, he then gets a phone call to retrieve the bag, at all costs or something bad will happen.
   A character is having his normal life, then CCTV cameras start following his every moves. the guy is writing his daughter a birthday card message.  A few moments later recieves a text. On the text it says ''I know you love your daughter. wouldnt it be bad if she was taken?" the text is emotionally blackmailing to the guy as he loves his daghter too much. He looks around because he did'nt recognise the number that texted him. It cuts back to Alfred on the phone going to reclaim the bag (that he previously dropped in the park)the picks it up. It cuts back to Tona all scared and baffled, he calls his daughter to see if shes alright, he notices from listening in the background that people have entered the house because she is screaming, he swears to get her back. 
Alfred then bumps into Tona gives a dirty look and carries on walking rapidly, the new guy says "excuse me"(still baffled) then straight away recieves a text saying "TAKE IT... TAKE THE BAG!". Tona then starts running after him, and corners Alfred. The Tona explains to Alfred that he needs to take the bag or 'they' will kill my daughter'. Alfred tells him that he has to keep the bag becasue my own life depends on it. It then cuts to the road that they were on before and we only see the entrance of the road , but we can't see them. We hear a bit of silence and then a gunshot. A few moments later footsteps walks out and a hand picking up the bag(leaving the auidience in suspence) then cameras go up then it shows Alfred walking out, showing the auidence he killed the other guy. Alfred then carries on walking fast.
he sees a mysterious character were he has been told to deliver the bag.he says well done,  "your going to be rich". he tries to get walk away with the bag, as he is gettin up Tona appears behind him, grabs his shoulder and sits him back down. the mysterious man is baffeld, saying "i herd the gun shot" Alfred says, "i did shoot" theres a flashback to the scenario with Alfred and Tona at the shooting. it shows alfred moving the gun away from Tona and shooting the floor. it cuts back to the mans face, all suprised and cunfused. Alfred continues to talk and says "but i didnt shoot him". Tona asks the guy where his daughter is, and alfred asks where his money is. they crowd the man and the movie ends.

As It is an hybrid of the action and thriller genre, we will be using a variety techniques to develop the movie. We will be using a variety of camera shots,angles and movement but the main ones that we intend to use are:
Close ups to show the facial expressions of the characters and the main props in the movie.Shallow focus, High angle to show the CCTV view, Long shots to show the locations and the characters head to toe. Overshoulder shots to show when the guys bump into eachother. Midshots to show the body language of the characters. We are also going to use a low angle. We will also use movement like when the subject walks into space. Also going to use camera movements like panning and tracking. 
  In Action movies the editing is very fast pace, which is why we are going to use straight cuts and dissolves. We are also going to use a Montage that will be used in the beginning to show whats happened in the previous movie. The Sounds are going to be both diagetic and non diagetic. Nondiagetic will be used for the background music as its not coming from the movie and the diagetic sounds will be the phone ringtone , the text msg tone and the gunshot.
  The mise-en-scene are the props, costume, settings,lighting and  body language. The props that will be used are the bag which the main prop of the movie as everything is based around it and a gun. The locations we intend to use are a park , alleyway, busy road , cafe and cashpoint. The costumes are mainly going be hoodies (we wat to uses hoodies brecause it stereotypically relates to the age of the target auidence, so its easy for them to relate to the character) , tracksuits and a buisness suit. The lighting should be quite dark to relate to the Action and thriller genre.
