Short
Summary
We are a small group of Filmmakers from York and Nottingham working on
our new short film project ‘Trent-Side’ which we aim to submit to various UK and
international film festivals after completion.
Premise
What happens when a
young skateboarder with mental health issues begins seeing a sinister ghost
after finding a mysterious reel of super8 film inside an ominous abandoned
building.
Logline
A troubled
skateboarder begins to put his life in danger to understand whether the
mysterious ghost he’s seeing is a real supernatural entity or his imagination.
Genre
Psychological Horror,
Psychological Thriller.
Target
Audience
The target audience
would primarily be Thriller and Horror Short film festival audiences. However,
the film will also aim to connect with British skateboarders and fans of
independent cinema.
What
We Are Aiming to Raise and How It Will Be Spent
We are aiming to raise £1750 in total for the production. This money will
fund the booking of locations, props, costume, make up and prosthetics and the cost
of actor and crew travel as well as additional equipment hire.
We also hope to shoot a portion of the film on super8 film, which we will
then develop, bleach and distort using a ‘Film Soup’ technique. This money will
help us to pay for the film reels necessary to shoot on super8 as well as pay
for the cost of developing and digitizing the footage.
