James Bolton - Ideas Grid 2



Above is a scan of my second ideas grid which ended up being our final idea. We decided that the original idea for this song wasn't plausable, especially after the comments and feedback we received from our initial pitch. I came up with the idea of having the main character as a house robber, rather than a hitman. This has solved a number of problems we were facing:
  • A chase scene that we proposed for the hitman idea was a risk as it could have looked unconvincing. A house robbery is easier to film and it will still create the desired effect we are looking for, as well as representing the main character is the same way.
  • Location wise, we were struggling to think of a place where we could film a chase scene. It was likely it would have to be in an open area where there would be public interference, but filming in a house gives us time, flexibility and we can get the continuity of the video spot on.
  • Actor wise, we were also struggling to find someone who was the appropriate age for the hit man (around 25-35), so having someone rob a house means that we can use a teenager, rather than an adult.
