Term 2, Lesson 10

Today I used my planning from last lesson to write my treatment, I did this in class and finished it at home. It is very basic and will probably be redone when I have further clarity on my trailer. 


Treatment:

Fades from black to paramount logo. Quick edits of school books, writing at a dest/homework, close ups of protagonist - all fading in an out of black. Black screen, voice over (mother?) saying protagonist has a letter which invited her to watch the big drag racing championship. Mid shot of protagonist and threshold guardian/best friend sitting on bed looking at flyer, protagonist knows she can drive but isn't sure if she wants to drive because she wont be accepted because as she is a girl, fade to black. fades from black, close up on best friend mouth, on phone saying ‘you don't know me but you’ll want to know my friend’, fade to black. fade from black long shot of mentor walking out of car and house, fade to black. fade from black, best friend introduces protagonist to mentor, fade to black. fade from black, mid shot of mentor talking to protagonist - telling her story, fast shot of giving protagonist her ‘lucky gloves’, fade to black. fade from black fast shots of driving, best friend timing, excited because just making the times, fade to black. fade from black, long shot from protagonist point of view of first race day to qualify for ‘big race’, close up on best friend - worried because of all the other experiences drivers, mid shot antagonist getting out of car, meets antagonist, fade to black. fade from black coming across finish line, only just qualifies, fade to black. fade from black, nervous in the days approaching ‘big race’, fade to black. fade from black, race day, various fast shot of the race, close ups of protagonist and antagonist racing

what will happen in full movie…
