Our Pitch!

So here's our first pitch-

Pitch A: Clara Denzel doesn't really fit in at her new school. She finds that her life turns around when she joins a band.

This was the very first idea we considered making into a pitch. But there were a few things that we didn't like about the pitch. The first being that we would need to record at a school for the setting of the movie, which we were only allowed to do for the commercial. Second, we wanted to make the opening scene of the main character playing the guitar, but we don't have access to a guitar. Third, we would need a lot more actors to make a school setting come to life and actually look realistic, which isn’t attainable. And finally, we wanted to get the rights to use a song from the band Sleeping With Sirens, but we couldn’t be certain we could get the song in time. Overall, this pitch had a lot of obstacles that we would have had to work around to get the movie done.

Here is our second idea-

Pitch B: A girl moves into a new town with her mom, but the town isn't what it seems. Strange occurrences, weird visions; she soon discovers the secret to this town. 

When we came up with Pitch B, we had a spooky, creepy theme in mind. There were many things we liked about this idea. For example, we wanted to film in a forest and there happens to be a forest next to my house. Also, we wanted the film to feature a mom and a daughter, which will work out perfectly with Faith joining our group. When my partners and I were discussing the idea, we brainstormed many camera angles and shots that we could include. When we came up with the ideas, it made us super excited. All of us could see the vision and could see ourselves filming this pitch in the future.

 

Our final decision was to go with Pitch B!
