As a group we wanted to focus more on a coming of age film with a combination of genres (hybrid genre) which are thriller and sci-fi. excellent films such as 'I am number 4' and 'Abduction follow these themes and work really well on screen. We also explored the thriller genre with a theme of schizophrenia and having a
distressed girl at the heart of our story. We thought it would be a really
interesting thriller to make, with it being (sort of) true to life, however, we
felt that this mental health issue was similar to our AS thriller production we
made last year, which was based on suicide and revenge. We also wanted to keep
to the theme of a serious and mature plot lines.There is a professional band named ‘Cyrus Rose’ who, when I was on set with
them for their music video, said that we could have the rights to their music
to use for this purpose, which would be really good if we went ahead with our ‘coming
of age, hybrid genre ideas.Another idea we had was to do a pure coming of age
film, like seen in ‘The Perks of Being a Wallflower’ and ‘Submarine’ as we
could easily replicate this easily because we easily have access to settings
and actors of this age. However, to make this more interesting and serious, we
have decided to combine this with sci fi and thriller themes.
