tv trailer plan


  • song about 4 minutes = 240 seconds
  • 6 main characters
  • 20 seconds dedicated to individual characters showing activities and dialogue to represent their character and give some plot details = 120 seconds adding on titles 2 seconds each x 6 = 132 seconds long
  • Leaves 108 seconds for montage shots of all characters together or seperate These will be shown at the start of the trailer and then again at the very end after all the individual character montages 
  • In individual character parts I want them in at least 3 different clothing and it to be shots from 3 different days
  • In the montage at the beginning and the end I would rather it often featured 2 or more of the group in quick cuts of them doing group activities

Member possible individual stories:
  1. Unstable - John is on a path of self destructive behaviour and needs help as he is in denial and just out for what he considers a good time. He needs to accept and turn it around (Finn "I need some help" Kind"yeah you're not the only one ill tell you that"
  2. Fool - Fearing he needs to turn his work around but also just enjoys lazing around and having fun seeks aiding from Kind and Nerd
  3. Kind - worrying for Unstable and trying to help fool out with work also wanting to make it into her chosen UNI she challenges her friend Bitch for her harsher words about the group, lives with one parent
  4. Lesbian/gay - Leaving the country for a UNI over seas having a hard time knowing she will be leaving her friends
  5. Bitch - Colder towards Unstable feels he should be cut off before he drags members or the group down 
  6. Nerd - Studying hard and supporting Fool while also poking some fun at him he likes going out  with John has a crush on Gay/lesbian 
Individual character shots:
All need some close ups showing dramatic or emotional facial expressions
  1. Unstable - drinking, smoking, drug use, laughing, hanging out with Nerd. Dialogue asking for drugs, what the group are gonna do later suggesting plans
  2. Fool - saying some stupid things, trying to work but procrastinating, calling Kind for help, letting unstable distract him
