My Pitch

For my movie pitch, I want to go with a more suspenseful theme. This doesn't necessarily mean scary, but something that leaves the watchers interested. For my first pitch idea, I want to portray a family/ person trapped inside a "tv" or shown being watched through the other screen. The people being watched have no idea that someone is watching so they are doing stuff they normally would. For example, if I walk up to the TV and clean it, the people watching me either as a show or "spy", will see me from this view. This can portray a lack of power that one may realize they have. The suspense In this comes from the cluelessness throughout the person's life. It may choose them to rethink everything they have done as they are being watched 24/7.  If I do not go with my first choice idea my second choice will be a person realizing an identical copy of them is living not too far. For example, the actor may be driving and then pulls up next to a car. They then realize that the person driving is identical to them. Before the two people meet, they go through everyday activities. These activities will be filmed in different locations because they are living different lives. They will either be doing the exact same thing or doing their own things with different houses and families as well. For both my pitches having the idea make sense is most important. Both ideas will be a thriller based film and have psychological parts that make the audience think. I would be interested in making both of these films as they have a story behind them. Actually presenting and creating this storyline is what will take time. I look forward to filming the final pitch I choose and hope it's captivating enough for an opening sequence.
