Operator

Narrative   Equilibrium – A lady works as an emergency operator. Disruption – She gets a call. Recognition – She learns there is a fire in someone’s house. Attempts to Repair – She calms the woman down and instructs her on what to do whilst telling the fire department where she is. New Equilibrium – The lady is safe and she moves onto the next caller. Gemma is the damsel in distress, trapped by the fire and in need of saving. The operator is the hero, helping her to safety. The fire is the villain.  Lighting The light is created by the computers on the operator’s desk and a small lamp. This creates both a calming contrast to the terrifying situations that they have to navigate, but also creates an ominous glow.

The Ellington Kid

Narrative Equilibrium – Two boys are sitting in a café, one has a burger, the other just has chips. Disruption – One boy notices that the other has a burger and begins to tell him the story.

Short Film Plan - The Sound of Trumpets My ideas always seem to involve death, such as someone taking their own life, killing a parent or the person they are renting a room from. I knew that I wanted to take a dark route, possibly adding a message. This is the idea I have at the moment: Short Synopsis: A boy has had a serious argument with his friend. He decides to kill him. The film follows the main character as he struggles to deal with what he has done.  “It is forbidden to  kill ; therefore all murderers are punished unless they  kill  in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets .” - Voltaire  Detailed Synopsis:  We open on a black screen. There is a voice over saying, "When I was nineteen, I decided to kill my best friend." We cut to a boy with a knife in his hand. It continues to cut from this sequence to the black screen between the voice-overs. "Some people might call me crazy, and they're probably right." The camera is below looking up. He starts...
