Statement Of Intent

 Statement of Intent 

Sub-genre (crime)

Stalking, murder

Because it is an interesting sub-genre of crime thriller 

Topic

A girl is being stalked by an unknown individual who seems to be terrifyingly obsessed with her

Primary Target Audience

Demographic: Teenagers, Young adults, Couples




Because relationships can get really complex. At that age, you feel a lot of emotions such as jealousy or obsession, hence people of these age groups would be drawn to this documentary


Psychographic: True crime enthusiasts, Thrill seekers, Curiosity-driven people




We think these groups will be most drawn to our documentary because its main mission is to track down an elusive criminal

Message (Dominant Reading)

Unhealthy obsessions and excessive possessiveness can drive a person to commit unspeakable crimes against the innocent


Because this issue affects people our age, our documentary aims to warn others, raise awareness, and make it clear that such behavior is unacceptable and dangerous

Characters

  • Protagonist: A teenage girl, living an ordinary life with her boyfriend, until she becomes the target of a stalker

  • Boyfriend: Victim of the stalker’s violence

  • Stalker: The antagonist with a hidden identity, driven by jealousy and obsession to kidnap the boyfriend

Representations (groups, places, events)

Groups: Teenagers, Young couples


Places: Girl’s home, School, Public


Events:


We have easy access to teenage actors, teenager issues, teenager dramas, etc, making it more authentic and relatable. 


These places are familiar environments to teenagers, making danger feel closer and more real to the audience. These places are also easy and free to access. 

What will be the hook? (The mystery that keeps audiences watching)

The question of “Who’s stalking her? Why are they willing to go this far? How did this all start?”, along with the shocking package of her boyfriend’s finger.

CCR 2

 This is my CCR 2 which explains about how does your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as a real media text?



ccr2 




this is my script : 

Our demographic target audience are male from the age group of 17 - 35 , we target them ,because we think that they might enjoy our movie because it has many violence which are wanted by people from people in the age range , We also target south east asian people , because our movie actors is from Indonesia which is southeast asia so we would want to target people from southeast asia . and we also target western people , because our action movie are mostly inspired from western movies so it could attract many western people to watch the movie. 


Our psychographic target audiences are motorcycle riders , thrill seekers and people who like fighting and revenge , we target motorcycle rider , because in our movie the main character were shown using motorcycle so this could help attract motorcycle riders and we add brutal fighting scene which would attract people who like fighting and thrill seekers , our movie is also about a person seeking for revenge so this would attract people that like to see someone taking revenge.




Our age rating is 17 ++ because our movie has many violence and blood and brutal fight scenes which is not necessary for people below 17 to watch 

 

Our distribution company is lionsgate we chose this distribution company because this company have release many action movie which is successful in the film industry like John Wick . and we will promote our movie through advertisement in social medias like instagram and youtube , we use this because many people use youtube and instagram so many people could see our ad and maybe interested to watch our movie . 


Audience could watch our movie from cinema and streaming sites such as netflix .

Behind The Scene

  This is a collection pictures taken "behind the scenes" of our production process. This was made by Kenzo.

Creative And Arts Crew:
Storyboard Writer: Kenzo
Set Design: Kenzo, Gusde
Make-up artist: Candra, Maha

Camera and VFX Department: (The tech people)
Lighting Technician: Gusde
Editor: Maha
Camera Operator: Kenzo (stunt cameraman), Gusde (drone operator)

Above the line: (The one in charge)
Director: Gusde
Assistant Director: Kenzo


Pictures of Behind the Scenes (taken by Kenzo):


This is the drone that we used to record aerial footage of our character riding a motorcycle and climbing the walls. This device made it extremely useful when it comes to recording far-distance third-person point of view.


This picture depicts Gusde and Maha discussing about how we're going to use a drone to shoot Candra climbing the wall.


This picture shows us reviewing the footage that we shot after the take.


This picture shows our actor "Mark Choi" getting ready on a motorbike to shoot our very first scene.


This is the picture of our actor playing as the criminal boss of the underworld.


This picture shows us shooting the final scene of the film opening where we used red food colouring to act as blood and we needed assistance from Gusde he will splash red food colouring onto Maha's face.



These videos shows how we recorded our film opening for the fighting scene.
Reflection : The production was nice and fun , we get to share ideas with each other and during the fight scene that are many problems that we face , such as the lighting and the camera angles , but we manage to get it done , by working together with each other .

new research : title





This video help me to find reference from many different movie title , which could help me to make my title more better .






feedback

This is the feedback for our teacher for our final movie intro 

- we need to add subtitles

- change our title card and do a research for title card 

- create new title

Dominant Reading

 This is the visualisation of our dominant reading which is created by Gusde

Dominant Reading

 Group:


This is just a quick catch up session that we did as a group. We thought it would be a good idea to check what our intended dominant readings are for the different things being represented in our film opening. We have recently learned about Stuart Hall’s Reception Theory with Dominant, Oppositional, and Negotiated readings. For our media text to be successful, we want to make sure the message is clear and able to reach the correct audience. Below we will discuss our intended readings, and compare them to the intended readings we made in our Statement of Intent earlier on in the project. It will be interesting to see if our ideas have evolved. 




List 

Our intended 

Dominant Reading

How we will achieve this with technical elements

Individuals 

Boss


Candra


Powerful in terms of strength and influence

Dedicated smart strong


Mise en scene: Suit, Luxurious Chair, Menacing smile
Camera:Low Angle


Social group

Criminals



We wish to represent criminals and be evil and unjust.


This will be primarily shown with the bosses fighting style being dirty and unfair.

Places

Boss office







Road


We want to show the bosses main “office” to be a place fit for a king and extravagant a reflection of a his 

power and influence

As we can see here this is done with dark moody lighting. The dark wooden floor gives a rustic and luxurious feel. The boss also sits in a central position showing power within the room. The room is also a bit dirty and industrial with exposed piping this shows that he may be a careless person.

Events

Fighting





Seduction


The fighting in this opening will be intense and over the top which we hope will add to the comedic 

~ Abusing multiple cuts (make sure it has enough time frame for the audience to understand)
~ Close up shots

~ Gay Element for seduction

Overall Message

We wanted to show that evil or bad may be good in the short time but good will prevail in the long run.

How are these similar or different from your Statement of Intent?

  • The bosses character traits are similar

  • We want to reduce the vitality and amount of guards but we will still use them as comedic value.


Reflection : The dominant reading helps us to get our shooting more organise since it is already organised according to what should we do first .
