short film: curfew



Curfew was A very traditional type of family film that follows a semi normal structure but through some of the film form technique it is able to allow the audience to connect the all the charters on a really emotional level. It follow the main charter Richie who is who to have a really rough life. The first shot we see of him is him attempting to comit suicide. We're not directly told why but we can see from the virtual and some dialogue, that he may have had a problem with drugs in the past. His sister calls him up and asks him to look after her daughter. she mention how is this is an emergenncy and that she wouldn't do this if she truly had no options.  The mother and daughter are both shown not to have a close relationship.

Initial ideas for short film





  • My film will follow me as the main character shown  with a mixture of close ups and mid shots.
  • I want to add a conflict to the narrtive but I want it to be very small and possibly a narrative twist
  • It will be a documentary style with it mainly shot handheld with my character talking into the camera
  • I want the story to be of me giving a monologue about my life, the shortness of life existentialism. this is going to be intercut with shots of me doing everday things
