PLANNING: TREATMENT

Frank Ash


To makes sure we would being effective with developing the treatment for our film we looked to Frank Ash again. Fank Ash was a former Creative Consultant for the BBC. Frank Ash outline what needs to be considered to engage an audience. Frank explains how a producer needs to outline the answer to some key questions, the Top Line and Big Question. The Top Line: a brief summary of the plot but not giving away the results. The Big Question: this is the question that needs to be emphasized to engage the audience. 

Top Line: A creature of unknown origin pulled from the depths of the past. They believed that it could be controlled, they were wrong. The location of its whereabouts is deemed too dangerous for the outside world to know, therefore two elite operatives are sent in to neutralize the being. Do they stand a chance against something beyond human comprehension? 

Big Question: Will they survive?
