Short film ideas
- Idea 1: (Drama)Two men. Dark room, light just shining through blinds. One man is on the run from the other the has something the other wants. He has given up running and is sat down. The other man walks i slowly with a gun, he sits down calmly and they discuss and talk about what each has done to each other, the struggles, the hate. And what they want. There is a fight scene. Things develop and we find out more about the characters.
- Idea 2: (Drama)The very end of a film, a group of 3 army soldiers are pinned down by enemy fire. They are ultimately going to die. Their radios are down, they are running low on ammunition, there is no escape. In the end when they realise the end is near, they hold fire and sit it out behind the wall they are hiding behind. They each share stories of the times they had with each other, and remember about what they've been through. They stay with each other until the end. The main character is the last to survive and we have a shot of him lying on the ground, breathing out, looking up to the sky, accepting his fate.
- Idea 3: (Drama)A young boy who's group of friends are growing up a lot faster than he is ready for. He falls to peer pressure a lot which doesn't help his home life and school work. He struggles with his life becoming someone who he did not intend to be. He ends up being addicted to smoking, drinking alcohol, he gets angry at his parents. His life is going down into the gutter. One night he is drinking with friends and a certain drug is introduced to him. He takes it trying to keep up his reputation. He leaves the group for the night to go home. On his way back side effects of the drug start to impact on him. He starts not being able to see, his brain is going wild, he struggles to walk. He end up lying on the street, struggling to breath and dying on the street. His life ends for the sake of trying to fit in.
- Idea 4: A scientist think they have created the cure for cancer, they try it on a patient and it turns out that this new cure changes the human brain to turn on one another. With this any form of spreading DNA will allow this disease to spread. Of course this disease spreads through the laboratory and soon to other areas of the country. We then follow two men who come a destroy this disease for good with guns and fire arms and bombs and everything extravagant.
- Idea 5: A man is put into slavery. He is forced to fight as a gladiator. He makes friends with another man and they help each other through the battles. When they're not fighting they stick together and help each other out with food rations. Eventually they are one of the few ones left. The emperor then in the final battle makes the two friends fight each other. The prize is their freedom. Will they turn on each other or stay together.
- Idea 6: The life of a young band. They get their record deal and start to live the the life of rock stars. They do gigs and concerts and being to live a life they never thought they would. The fame and the money is coming in from everywhere. Eventually arguments break out, they begin to tear apart. Some start to take drugs at gigs. They split up, some go into suicide and others waste their remaining money other things. We see them go from the top to the bottom
These are all good ideas Patrick with some potential to be developed into short films. A few are a bit unachievable (ideas 5 and 6 in particular!)
