Pitches

In our group we had to come up with a pitches for a horror, thriller and romantic comedy for film ideas. The task was to encourage and help us decide what type of film will were going to make. We had to decide on a basic storyline and come up with established actors to play the major and main characters. 

For our rom com idea we broke the stereotypical conventions by coming up with the idea of a gay couple to be the central characters rather that an heterosexual couple.  We the main role we cast Colin Firth (a well known romantic comedy actor) and Robert Pattinson as the major character (an up and coming star who draws in the attention of many young female fans).  The storyline would be Roberts character is a high end business man who is a self made millionaire, who hires a middle aged men who is struggling in life, with a marriage that is going no where. They fall in love, with Colins character being 'in the closet' but openly comes out gay to world with the help of Robert. 


Our horror idea revolved around a zombie theme. An virus was leaked from a laboratory experiment which infected many from around the world. However, in a small community up in wales they didn't expect it to hit there and for the whole village to turn into flesh eating zombies! The main role went to tom hardy, who;s character is trying to kill all these zombies and to escape from the small community in one piece. 


And for the thriller pitch we decided on the idea of angelina jolie becoming a psychopath killer who's sister played by anne hathaway is the detective in this case and is trying to solve who this murderer is but little does she know its her very own sister.
