Narrative structure for full 30-minute film – what happens and in what order (max 100 words):

  Firstly, the two characters go on a date where the girl is already being unstable, and shows her date (the boy) signs of her schizophrenia where the boy feels on edge of her behaviour. We then have many scenes of her developing further and more into her schizophrenia – the reason why the tragedy happens of her boyfriend cheating on her. The main protagonist (girl) she manages to confessions her craziness and has a flashback of her past of what happened to her and her love, and she has gone deeper into the her illness and her crazy side kicks in as she kills her boyfriend by kissing him a goodbye… kiss of death. The end of the story she kills herself as she commits suicide.  

Main protagonist, their desires, the conflicts they encounter etc.:
Main protagonist is a girl with schizophrenia.. conflict and tragedy's happen because of her craziness. 

Other characters and their role/audience appeal:
 boyfriend - 17 - typical guy that every girl would go out with. 

the girls best friend - 16 - the smart, goofy best friend 
the boys best friend - 17 - quirky best friend that is always relaxed. 

Target audience for your film (age, gender, social class, interests etc.):
15+, targeted for both genders and anyone who is interested in horror and drama genres as there is a lot of sense that scream out horror or just craziness. The social class would be working class as the characters are similar class and it would be easier for the target audience to create an identification with the characters within the production, this would be something that helps the audience to keep engaged within the production as the production would be made were the audience could see similarities in their everyday lives that they do that we have put in the production.

The three-minute extract you will make and where it would appear in the film:
In the 3 minutes extract, we will be looking at the middle part of the section where the girl confesses her craziness and remembers her past as in what her boyfriend did to her, this would make the character move more into schizophrenia where it can cause a lot of harm to herself physically but also mentally and emotionally.
