Initial idea for film

Genera:               Action
Characters:         Main protagonist – Agent Alex Mackles
Good boss – Jack May
Main bad guy – Ex-Agent Sam Jones
Bad boss – Mia Butcher
First Agent – Tim Foster
Setting:                Bridge – Opening scene
                                London– briefing
                                Woods – Hanging of Sam Jones’s previous ‘job’ and other half of briefing scene

The film will open with Tim running down Rookery Hill dressed in a casual suit and jeans clutching a piece of paper, where he hit a trip wire, visible to the camera after a focus pull from Tim, and fall to the floor. He will turn round then in the middle of the road where he has just run and there will be Sam Jones standing holding a silenced pistol pointed to the floor dressed in a smart black suit and trousers. He will walk to Tim and ask “Where you going Tim?” in a way that the audience knows he doesn’t need to be answered. Tim will plea for a bit before being stabbed and thrown off the bridge; for this shot I will be using a high angled wide shot to show how open the murder is and show that the act is insignificant as there is very little power placed on Tim, camera cuts to a low angled close up shot to show vast difference between the people we have seen.
Scene Ends
Next scene is of Alex and Jack discussing the problem of Sam, a folder will be produced and looked through momentarily. The convocation will then continue along the lines of “he must be stopped” “you’re the only one who knows him well enough” “go and get him” and so on… This scene will take place over the phone with Alex on a hand held phone wearing casual cloths whilst walking his dog through a park and Jack using an ear piece wearing a suit sitting behind a computer at an iconic London location with two pages open, on one page is a file on Sam the other a file on Alex. Across Sam’s file is a red word ROGUE and across Alex’s file it will read SUSPICIOUS in similar font and colour. Camera shows a close up of the picture and the shot fades and changes into Alex walking along, still with his dog, in the same manner as the photo this indisputably shows that this character is the same as the file. The phone convocation ends. Alex looks to his dog “looks like there giving us another chance boy”. Scene cuts back to Jack when someone approaches him ask if that was a wise he replies “he’s all we’ve got”.

Film Ends
