Trailer Plan: Writer's Block

Our trailer will comprise of three acts:

Act 1:

• Slow pace.
• The first thing the audience sees is the ident- production company.
• An initially happy couple are shown around a house.
• The estate agent asks them what they do for a living wife says she's a lawyer and the husband a writer.
• When asked about previous owners the estate agent skirts round the question.
• The couple sign the papers and buy the house.
• They move in and everything is ok for a while and they are a happy young couple in a new house.

Act 2:

• Medium pace.
• While the wife goes out to work the husband sits down to begin writing.
• We see that he is struggling to write.
• Strange things begin to happen to him.
• The wife becomes aware that something isn't right.
• A doctor comes to talk to the husband and says he'll be back.

Act 3:

• Very fast pace.
• In this part of the trailer it becomes apparent that things are getting worse.
• The wife becomes very anxious as the husband appears to be more insane.
• The husband seems to be obsessed with the history of the house.
• The wife tries the doctor again and gets the answering machine
• The strange events become more frequent and more intense as shown in a montage where said strange events and behaviour from the husband are cross cut with images of the anxious wife.
• there is a sudden cut from the montage to the title of the film 'Writers Block' with the cast underneath.
