Final Pitch idea and my reflection on the pitch idea

Storyline

-inside a science laboratory, three scientists are working on a special formula

{wearing lab coats and lab goggles}

-scientist 1 writes up some calculations before saying  "I think I've cracked it" 


-retrieves a vial of black liquid from a the store room and adds a drop to the main formula vial.


-formula is finished. 


-sound of a car pulling up outside the laboratory causes the scientists to get into a panic


-scientists carefully put it into 3 vials and put those into a foam lined briefcase.


-close up of man getting out of car outside lab [close up of door opening, and feet hitting the floor]


-scientist 1 hands the guy the briefcase.


-exits via the rear of the building with the briefcase, leaving the scientists in the lab.


-shots of the guy walking calmly away from the building.


-cut away to the lab where two men proceed to detain the two scientists.

 a third man enters the building and says to the scientists  "where is it" 

-one of the scientists replies  "its gone" 


-third man whips out his mobile phone [with credits on screen]


-calls a number and says  "its not here" 


-cut away to guy on other end of phone (boss)  "well...you had better find it"  [shot of only the lower quarter of face and mobile phone]


-cut back to the lab. third man says "lets go. bring one with you, deal with the other" put potato sack on the first scientist head, 

 take him outside, and put him in the back of the car, then go back into the lab, shoot the other scientist
 then return to the car, and proceed to drive away.

-camera behind car as it turns the corner


-match on action of the briefcase guy coming round the corner [front view]


-fade back into the scientist walking down a street, mid-afternoon/ evening, with the briefcase in hand


-proceeds to turn down an alleyway and walks a few meters,

 at which point he looks behind him and sees the silhouette of a man in a hat behind him.

-he turns his head back and sees the silhouette of another man in a hat  {so he is effectively trapped}.

-he stops and begins to asses his options, at which point the two men begin to walk towards him.

-the scientist begins to panic, and drops the briefcase onto the floor, revealing the three vials.


-the men in suits and hats increase their pace towards the scientist as he desperately tries to pick up the vials 

 and place them back into the briefcase.

-final shot. an Ariel view of the two men in suits on either side of the scientist [one in front, one behind].


Personally I like our idea because it is new and innovative compared to a lot of the student films that I have already scene, it shouldn't be to hard to film as we know exactly what time of day we need to film each scene at and we have easy access to all of the locations
