My film opening with directors commentary




Script for directors commentary 



Hello, im kirk kemp, writer and director of Sugar n spice.


Im just going to talk you through the opening sequence of sugar n spice, but before i do heres a little more information about my production company and some other information relating to it.....


My production company was created in order to show and promote my video productions and work. 



When i was looking for distribution companies i came across Dog Woof: indie, and i think  they will be the best company to distribute my film, as they focus mainly on distributing british independent films, and as you can see that is what sugar n spice is. 


To make the full length version of this film,  i would most likely ask for funding from the uk-film council, as they fund many british independent films.



As you can see at the start of the film opening i have placed the title of my production company. i have done this mainly due to copy right and also to show that it’s my production company that has produced this film.


 also this follows in the footsteps of a traditional film opening.


 As the titles appear they appear within the negative space, which is black. I chose to do it this way as the titles seem a lot more clear and easy to understand.

 

As you will see the titles continue to appear in the same way but at different points around the screen.


 I went with this idea as i believe it keeps the audience fixed both on the action and the titles which i believe are very important within a film opening. 



Realistically speaking the films that would be released in a similar way to mine are any independent uk films, for example the film *Life is sweet*.


It’s a great example of a great british film, which is actually closely related to sugar n spice. 



As you can see it is quite obvious from the first few shots, mainly due to the school uniform, that sugar n spice is aimed at teenagers. 


And the overall age group for this film is 15 upwards this is due to the content within the film. 


Such as...  swearing..., and some scenes of violence...
