The Shadowing Proposal

Our Single Camera Drama is going to be a Horrow called ‘The Shadowing’ we have decided to write and direct a Horror because we feel it’s a challenge and we have a great idea. Our Horror is all filmed as if its in real life to make the audience fear what they are seeing and question whether its real or not.Although there is many films around like ours, we feel ours is different as its a small and young group being terrorised and where as others aren't real our research has helped us find a real life haunted house and we've used its history to make our horror feel more real.
Our Horror will be based around four students at University, each character will be playing as themselves but with different background, Reggie plays a film student asked by his tutor to make a movie so his idea is to make a documentary based movie on somewhere haunted, he hires Rob to do the research and mapping to find the place which is called Borley Rectory a real life haunted house burnt down in 1939. Shaun plays Reggie's cousin who is studying drama at the college who will play as a presenter in his project and finally George who is also a film student who is dealing with the camera.
The movie is set in a wooded area where the crew begin filming a documentary until slowly a mysterious character begins croping up in the background and when the night hits the character begins taking out the students one by one.
The first charatcer to die is the cameraman George who gets his neck snapped from then Reggie ends up taking the camera to try catch everything that happens on camera for the world to see, from here the building Borely Rectory which was apparently burned down in 1939 appears in front of them and the charater walks out the front door after them to which Rob gets left behind and assumed dead. The movie does end with all the characters being killed except for Reggie is feared dead but opens his eyes before the camera cuts to end the movie.
The movie is aimed at a young audience of between 15-24 this is due to the fact the film contains violence and small use of foul language which could make it a certificate 15. We also feel that that real life horrors appeal to a younger audience like the famous films Paranormal Activity.
The movie will be filmed in multiple locations due to where the movie leads; we will need to film, around a college, in a forest area and a old house. For this we will require a full HD camera a tripod a shotgun microphone and most importantly torches for our night scenes.
