Documentary Proposal
A proposal is a thorough explanation of your project. It is created in the pre-production phase to persuade funders, distributors and others to support the project.
- Working title: A Snowy Life
- Producers: Jackson and Parker
- Controlling idea: You must first write a controlling idea that will describe the premise of your documentary. Use the following template:
My documentary is about Jacob Snow and hockey in Kansas. The main conflict is about how Jacob Snow is one of the few people at Olathe Northwest. Ultimately, I want the audience to feel and to understand that that hockey is bigger in Kansas than most people think.
- Main characters: Write a paragraph about EACH of your main characters. For each, include:
The main character in the story is Jacob Snow. Jacob Snow is one of few people at Olathe Northwest Highschool that plays hockey. This person is the main character of our story and we will be following him around while he goes from his house to the hockey rink. The character's role is a hockey player from Olathe Northwest High school in Kansas. This character is interesting because he plays a sport that is not very popular in a state that doesn't have a professional team for that sport.
- Conflict: What is at issue in the film?
- How do people train for hockey in Kansas?
- The story will show Jacob playing hockey and scoring a goal.
- Plot diagram: ACT I: Jacob will be waking up and getting ready for the day. ACT II: Jacob will be getting ready for the ride to the rink and will be driving to the rink. ACT III: Jacob will be at the rink and playing hockey.
- Resolution: the film will end with Jacob scoring a goal and going to an interview of him talking about hockey.
