Changes in Plans: Filming Stage

Originally we were going to just do a deadpan shot to the camera in the tunnel at the end. Instead we had an idea to make it more psychological, and gathered inspiration from the film "Bronson", in which Tom Hardy has points in the film where he deadpans to the camera in a spotlight often offering small concise descriptions of this point in time, or thoughts occuring to his character. Also due to the size and design of locations we had to change some shots to keep to the guide lines of the coursework.

AS Media Coursework: Plot Synopsis

Nathan, a small-time drug dealer, is found by a couple of rival dealers. He has been seeing Amy, the girlfriend of Jamie, Nathan’s rival. Jamie and his friend catch Nathan in the park, and chase him down. As Jamie runs from his pursuers, he reflects on recent events, largely involving drugs and Amy. Jamie realises that Amy has betrayed him, and decides that he needs to confront her, in order to clarify the situation.
