PRODUCTION INTERNAL: Concept Statement.

Genre: Romance.
Principal ideas: Character development/introduction of main protagonist.
Emotions I wish to evoke: Dark humor from the juxtaposition of the normal elements of a person's life with the protagonist's profession as an assassin.
Impact I wish to have on the audience: To introduce them to the main character and for them to be able to identify with him as a normal person even though he works as a paid assassin.
A brief outline of the story, character, style of the trailer: Our protagonist, an unassuming young man, prepares for his day. As he goes about his morning (using a montage of POV shots/close-ups/over-the-shoulder shots), we discover that he works as a paid assassin (shown by shots of weaponry, case files etc interspersed with shots of mundane things such as his morning coffee). He receives a file marked CONFIDENTIAL with details on a girl who he has been contracted to assassinate. He smiles as he reads about her (cuts between file and guy), then gets his coat/gun/bag etc (fast cutting) and leaves his house. We finish with a wide-angle shot of him walking down his street.
