Final Pitch Ideas Blog

One pitch we decided to go with was the action horror pitch. In this pitch, a girl's father goes missing, and as she starts searching for him, strange things begin to occur in her small town. The other pitch idea we decided on was the action pitch. In this pitch, being able to genetically modify humans has emerged and a girl tries to survive in a world where she isn't viewed as normal. We decided not to go with the idea of a movie where a girl goes to meet her online friend and it turns out her friend isn't who they seem. We narrowed this list down by making a pros and cons list. The second pitch had the most cons and didn't seem specific enough to turn into a two minute movie clip. We found that the idea would involve a lot of texts being shown on screen causing the viewer to have to read a lot more than should be necessary. Although it would be easy to film, it wouldn't be creative enough. The other two pitches had a lot more we could do with them and gave us more creative freedom.

The first pitch we decided on would be the horror pitch. This would be a good idea for multiple reasons. We had a lot of ideas of what to do with the filming of it. We also found that it would be a lot of fun to film because we enjoyed the concept. It also wouldn't be to complicated to film because a lot of the settings we would use would be accessible and ideal to film in. It would also be easy to show the plot through the movie clip unlike the pitch we decided not to do. The ending of the clip would also be definite but could also seem like there is more to it. It would leave the viewers wondering what else could happen after and make them intrigued and want to see more. The only con we had about this pitch would be that it would be a lot to explain in two minutes. This is because there is a lot of plot to explain, though overall it wouldn't be too hard to explain.

The second pitch we decided on was the action pitch.  This film, like the first one we decided to go with, would be fun to film. This idea is also unique. This film would also have an easy "ending", or one where it would be able to be added on to. This film would also be easy to understand what's going on. A con of this film would be the amount of special effects. this would be a problem, because we couldn't edit them in, so we would have to make physical ones during the film. There also isn't a lot that would be going on and a hard to understand backstory. Out of all the pitches, we decided to go with the one about the father going missing. This had the least amount of cons and is very developed by my partner and I.
