PLANNING: TREATMENT

Our film 'Charlotte' is about a group of teenage friends who seek adventure at the abandoned school, Claremont for Princess Charlotte's ghost. They set out on their risky adventure to the death place of Charlotte on the anniversary of when she died. Emily, the paranormal expert gathers her friends Jack and Gibby to join her on her quest to communicate with the ghost where they are truly pushed to their limits.

Later on in the production, the viewer sees a distressed Emily who is unlucky enough to be separated from the group where she herself discovered that the once-friendly spirit may not possess those qualities any more. The pace and intensity of the film is then drastically increased as they race against the odds and time to find Emily before the demon of Claremont takes Emily away and is lost forever.

We will use this treatment as the baseline for our film and helps to explain the narrative of the production in a simple form. This allows the directors to refer to the treatment so they don't stray away from the main storyline.

We watched Frank Ash, a BBC Creative Consultant, and learned of the topline and big questions.
