Film Pitch

This is our film pitch we did quite a while ago. We've changed and altered alot of ideas, particularly the main story line and scenes in the trailer, but our film will still possess the qualities we expressed a love for, for instance Hitchcock's use of black and white, and Tarantino's use of particular colouring. We've eventually settled on using a sepia tone in the flashbacks of Frank, our main character, to hint at the dream-like quality of them, and the fact they are technically in the past, simply because Tarantino's stark black and white, and drops of colour, would be pretty difficult to replicate given our tools. And even if we were able to mimick it, I'd still like to use sepia because I think it will work really well.

We're still focusing alot on Sin City's trailer, simply because we love it so much. It draws you in and captivates you with so many quick cuts of different characters and their stories, and I like the mismatched, clumsy feel to a trailer that, overall, is pretty sleek and shiny. It focuses alot on the character's facial expressions rather than speech and storyline, which I like alot; it's as if the trailer gives all the different characters a vigniette each.
