Task 2 - Idea Development & Pitch - part 3

Pre-Production:

Synopsis

The story behind the non-fiction book promo of ‘The Soul Support Book’ starts out by a pair of feet walking, wearing black and white tights and red shoes. Sparkles are shining around the shoes and a title fades in saying ‘Magic Feet’. After that brief introduction the audience is presented with three different cases.

Case 1: Two parents who cannot control their crying newborn baby. There will be close ups of their faces to show emotion. Then going back to the concept of the ‘magic feet’, the feet make a ‘jogging’ movement and then the baby starts snoring and sleeps.

Case 2: A man who is going crazy at work. He cannot get use to the hectic job. Papers are flying everywhere and he is going crazy. Then once again the feet make a movement and all the papers are sorted and the man is happy and relieved.

Case 3: A couple is watching TV together but the man sleeps and starts snoring. The woman is very upset because her boyfriend isn’t acknowledging her. Then once again the ‘magic feet’ make the same movement and a shot of the couple looking at each other and smiling with a lot of hearts around them.

After those three cases are shown, a shot from the ‘magic feet’ is shown tilting upwards revealing a girl who is representing the ‘magic feet’, and who is reading the ‘Soul Support Book’. The book is shown on the side and a picture of the publisher logo. This finally reveals that the ‘magic feet’ are fictional and the book is the actual product that helps. Ambient background music will be played throughout and the sound effects of the baby snoring and crying etc… will be played at the appropriate time
