What do they want:    For him and his younger brother to leave there town and look for a new life              elsewhere also he wants to make loads of money before he leaves to live off with his bother.




Different scenarios:


1) The start of the story will begin with with an extreme long shot and land scape views of London. Then it would show various short clips accumpnied with fast music of groups of hooded males exchanging money and backpacks to represent what our main characters all about making money illegally on the streets. Then will begin with the main character wakeing his 8 year old brother up and a pov shot of his mum asleep (to represent he has to be a father figure to his brother) then he walks his brother to school they talk together about a dream to run away then he promises he will run away to his brother ( this is where we get our first goal and what our character wants). After it will show him walking down the road and seeing an unchained bike a couple of meters away from a gang of men, then he casually walks over then steals the bike and rides off. He is then persuid by the gang. After the main character ditches the bike and takes a bag which was on the bike and runs off, he is continued to be chased by the group. As an audience u witness a pov shot of him running through woodlend when he trips an then is pinched by one of the males in pursuit which is followed by a blackout.


2) Another scenario is he awakes in a grubby flat tied to a chair surrounded by men who look 20 to 25 the camera will show extreme close ups of the characters faces to represent there expressions. This is where we meet our main protagonist. Who is very similar to the main character as they both come from the same block of flats and have the same goal to make money. To his amazement (as he knows the man well and has the knowledge that he's the main drug dealer and most dangerous men in the area)  he panics and apologies also realising the man knows his family, which is responded by laughter from the men. This is where he get our fist decision for the character, to carry out a dangerous job for them or as the protagonist knows his family he says his brother will get hurt which is the main weakness of the main character as a result he is left with no choice but to undergo this dangerous job.  

I want to include a number of birds eye view shots of London to get across to the audience how small this character is in such a huge city, its also to show the enormity of the challenge for him to get out of his area.   



3) Following this dangerous mission someone is stabbed and our main character is framed for the stabbing by this gang he is working for I want to show close ups of lips saying his name by the men he worked for. I want to follow his journey in prison with quick and short clips along with fast flowing rap music to show his whole time behind bars including scenes of him doing exercise and meeting new people. Eventually he meets two men and they produce a plan so when they leave prison, he will once again rob the men that framed him but for huge sums of money that he knows the protagonist has locked in a safe in his apartment. We then see him coming out of prison and we get a pov shot of him staring at his brother from a distance being shouted at by his mum outside the school gates and his brothers face being marked with bruises. Following the earlier knowledge that his mum is not capable to wake up her son we now get a picture after this scene that she is not fit to be a mother. Then we get faced with a flashback of him saying to his brother at the start how he promised they were going to run away. This is then met by a black screen then motivational music of him and these three men applying masks to there faces and putting guns in there pockets stood around a car on a high top building in London. This indicates that the mission is about to take place.


4) For the last scene after he's completed the stealing of the money I want him to take his mask off and show his face to the protagonist in slow motion and there to be a close up of his face with the same music that played when he was in prison to show how far he has come. This will represent they both wanted the same thing money but the non sterio typical hero comes out on top. For the last moments of the story I want to show him kicking down his front door and taking his brother, this final part of the series will then be him and his brother together on a coach heading to a new future then the final zoom out shot and the final birds eye view of London with once again the same music.
