Treatment:

Title
The title of the film would be Framed. This represents what the film will be about and is like a clue to the audience. Many BSR films have a simple name which tells something about the film which is why i have kept this one simple.

Identify Target Audience:
This film would be aimed towards a niche British audience. It would mainly be for males within the age range of 15-24 year olds. This would because the film would be more interesting to guys as there would be a lot of violence and males character are more dominant in the film. The other interests would be law, drugs, gangs and revenge. The class would be aimed towards people living in normal areas such as seven kings, ilford, newbury, Barking etc... These areas would be working class places. It would be aimed towards people living in these areas as the film would be set in these locations and the audience would be able to relate to the areas. Here is a link to work I recently did on Audience. This is primary research.

Technology
The technology I will need would be equipment such as cameras, tripod, mac to edit on with the imovie. the technology i will use when it comes to camera work would be a wide range of shots and angles were needed. This would make the film seem more interesting. There are also some limitations for what i can do such as using CGI and special effects. This would be because they aren't apart of BSR and don't have any verisimilitude  The other reason would be that it would be too expensive and we can only use what we have to make our film which has to be BSR.

Representation  
Our main characters in our opening sequence will be working class, and approximately 16 years of age, his representation would be more ‘nerdy’ and less suspicious, he would have a light complexion and would be 5ft10, he is represented as an innocent character and is caught delivering parcels, containing drugs, but he doesn’t know this.
Our antagonist is mysterious, we do not know much about him, as he mainly speaks to the protagonist over the phone, he would have a deep and intimidating voice, and would be feared throughout this movie, the enigma built up for this character would make the audience feel intimidated due to his actions and ruthless personality.

Narrative
Our movie will be about a 16 year old teenager who will be working a part time job of delivering parcels, he is an ordinary person, and his family is working class, who looks less suspicious to the police and is completely unaware of what he is delivering. One day when he is preparing his packages for delivery, he is arrested, and is imprisoned for 5 years, even though he isn’t guilty. He is released from prison and plots revenge upon his employer, he finds his employer after going through many sources and brawls with him, eventually getting stabbed.  

Conventions
How will you use the conventions of the BSR genre (conform/subvert)?
Some conventions we will use are real life sets in London. Other British Social Realism conventions that we will use are the use of unknown and untrained actors - us or other people we know.Our main protagonist is going to be working class which is another British Social Realism convention. Usually British Social Realism films contain a lot of fast paced rap and grime music. We will also use grime music (copyright free) which displays a convention. The type of camera shots and angles we will use are a lot of tiled and canted angles and use handheld shots. The camera frames will also look more rough. When editing, the contrast of the video will be lowered by 10% to provide it with that more dark, grimy feeling to it which confroms the BSR conventions. We will also use natural lighting.

Will you have any hybrid elements?
The only other hybrid elements we will have is a little bit of thriller in our opening sequence so we will try to build up some suspense and tension in the opening clip.

Style & Iconography
How will you use camerawork to create an effect for the audience?
We will use the gimey type of camerawork used in British Social Realism movies. This means there will be lots of tilted an canted angles. Also a lot of handheld shots will be used to capture the realness and rough trueness of Britain. This will help to create an effect for the audience that they are there witnessing the film taking place in first person.

How will you use editing to create an effect for the audience?
One of the main things we will do in the editing is to drop the brightness of the video by 10% which will again provide that more dark, rusty feel to it which will create the effect on the audience of experiencing the real Britain creating verisimilitude.

How will you use costumes/props as visual signifiers for the audience?
We will use costumes and props in our opening sequence. From these the audience can tell alot about, for example the location of where the film is taking place just from the costumes. We will also use props as appropriate to the character in the opening sequence which could connote to the audience what the personality of the character is. For example if the character is carrying a weapon the audience can connote from the prop that the character may be violent and has bad intentions.

How will you use costumes.props as visual signifiers for the audience?
We will use sound similar to what is commonly used in British Social Realism movies. For example a lot of grime is used so we may use grime too. We will also use real life sounds and no sound effects as it rarely happens in British Social Realism and it makes it creates a more believable experience for the audience.

Institution
Our movie would be distributed by Film 4, as it would meet their conventions, of having a low production budget, unknown directors, and unknown actors- also the movie would be aimed at a nice market and wouldn't be produced expecting a profit, but more to convey a message of life in Britain, we would exhibit this movie at film festivals to build slow word of mouth promotion, and also in small niche cinemas such as PictureHouse as they’re known for exhibiting independent movies.
