Planning: Influences

Influences

Our idea for our film opening has been inspired by the film My Murder which is based on a true story. However, we have created a twist on our storyline by making our main character a female which isn't a common occurrence in Urban youth films as they usually all feature and focus on a male protagonist.

We have also been inspired other UK urban youth films such as kidulthood, and Top Boy.

Institutions

The film will be an independent low budget production because the quality of our film wont be up to standard to Mainstream films. Also our film will be urban drama because we felt that we would be more easily able to portray an urban film as group are primarily from urban areas all over London therefore we would easily able to represent it.

The companies that we want to produce our films are Swirl films or fierce productions who are known to produce Urban films. Swirl films is also the number 1 urban film production company,

Our distributors are anchor bay who have distributed films such HoneyTrap.
