From my post of initial ideas, I understand that I had to come up with a 25 word treatment to discuss the summary of my feature film. I came up with this idea above. I've decided to come up with this because my film is a drama/adventure film and so I needed something like this to match my idea of a film. This film is supposed to be a moving, but happy movie about the young man finding his dad still alive, but has never seen him before (He left his mother before the birth). He experiences a lot of problems throughout his journey, including travelling on his own, lack of money to stay in a hotel and finding a wrong identity. This should make the audience feel like wanting to help the man to become a lot more confident about finding his dad. When he struggles in certain situations, they want him to overcome his struggles and fight for his goals, achievements and rewards.
For my idea of an opening sequence, the beginning of the film will show the man reading a letter sent from his long-lost father, telling him about the location of his home. Examples of camera shots I will use to construct my film include a shot/reverse shot (showing the man's face and then the writing on the letter to show that he is reading the letter), close-up (when showing the man's face), the point-of-view shot/over-the-shoulder shot (To show the character looking at the letter) and the long shot (To show a side-view of the man's body, whilst sitting down). These ideas have been inspired by the 2010 film 'Dear John', which tells the story of a man who reconsiders himself to join the US Army. The relationship of the couple carries on through sending letters to each other and replying back.
