Synopsis and target audience

Synopsis

A small city has been cut off from the rest of the world because of a disease that has changed most of the population that live there into zombies who pass on the disease. However there is still a small majority that live there without the disease. They know they have been cut off for a reason. The majority without the disease live in a small house, which they call the safe house; everyday some people from the safe house brave the zombies who walk the streets, houses and shops to find a way out or even to find more survivors. They soon notice some news on the T.V. that the town is going to be destroyed by a bomb whipping out everything that lives there and the disease. There is no way that the trapped majority can contact the outside world, phone lines have been cut and the only piece of technology they have is the television.

A time and date is set for when the bomb is going to be dropped can the humans escape from the town without getting attacked by zombies is there even a way out of the town.

Once we decided to work as a group we had to develop our idea so we all had an input. Here is our improved synopsis:

In world where people are scared by what goes bump in the night, possessions and floating sheets a new splash of horror is needed to relight true terror and fear to an audience of common day sissies. “The Field” is the new horror set to scare audiences to the bone. A film so horrific it even makes Jason tremble and Freddy wish he was dreaming.

The blissful, tranquil country side a relaxing weekend to allow Mark to relax with his friends just one last time. It is the few months before Mark, Chloe, John and Tasha go their separate ways in life and they decide to have one last weekend together to properly say their goodbyes they pack up and leave the city to relax just them no outsider influences but the world is a new world. Endlessly expanding developing but to what end?

A new wonder wheat has been produced by top American scientists and has been said to be able to end starvation in the world and be used as a new source of energy. Despite the Americans inventions the first major and currently only plantation lies in the UK who previously denied growth of such crops as this isn’t just any crop it’s GM. Kept under wraps by both American and English governments can this wheat truly be the answer?

The villagers that Mark and co originally meet seem distant at times but friendly none the less they appreciate the sentiment of the groups trip and aim to please their guest to their secluded farming town. As night falls things begin to make a terrible turn for the worst as villagers turn savage, feral and start to kill innocent and track down anyone like a pack of wolfs. But what is it that makes the villagers turn so violent.

A new take on the zombie type film jam packed with more tension and fear then ever. Beautifully crafted use of editing and screen play set the mood for the terror factor that is “The Field”. This chilling tale is one not to be missed.

Target audience

A few main characters of the film will be the brave few who search for a way out and look for more survivors, however most of these characters will be male thus making my target audience maybe more directed towards males. Although there will be at least one brave female showing independence and bravery. There will be other characters back in the safe house, more female characters, as the male characters are protecting them.  My target audience will mostly be for all ages that enjoy action packed survival horror. I believe the film will fall into every social group from A to E class as it involves people from every class even if they are just back at the safe house.
