Pre-Production Planning

We have completed our plot with detailed characters and have decided where we can film, our final storyboard is also finished where I generated some of the crucial shot ideas along with the group.

We have considered the characters as we know we have to get their personalities right in order for the film to work, we need to be able to get the audience to empathize with our bikers. We have not yet decided on names but have created their varied personalities:

Biker 1 – He is the leader of the group using his courage and ambition to push him and others on. However, when concerning him completing a challenge he will always put himself first which could cause problems as he is going with a group that aren’t potentially as able as him.

Biker 2 – The joker of the group who will bring some light heartedness to the film, he doesn’t take himself or the others seriously which is a relief for the others who count on him to cheer them up.

Biker 3 – He is quiet but very important as his common sense is the foundation of the group which keeps them together and he can always sort out problems with his relaxed approach to situations and clear thinking.

Biker 4 – The intelligent member of the group who is the most unprepared of the group, he would much rather be reading a book but has gone to help his friends out. His erudite belief that logic may solve everything could lead to his ideals being disproved.

The Stalker – A man thrown out of the army for killing innocents, banished to pitch hill to keep electricity flowing through the inhospitable forest. He has lived up the fill for decades and so has knowledge of the area which nobody else could compete with. The hill was his assigned home and he will not accept trespassers.
