ANNIE
Hi guys, its Annie. So today, I
am going to be talking about
internet friends. I was always
told as a child not to talk to
strangers on the internet
because of ‘stranger danger’
and all that jazz. But as you
get older, I guess you become
more aware of weird people
online, and I’ve never
experienced any trouble.
Shots of the YouTube clip playing on a laptop.
I have an internet friend of my
own, called Hannah. We’ve been
friends for nearly a year now.
When I first started out on
YouTube, she would watch and
comment on all my videos, and
eventually we began talking.
Shots of Annie texting Hannah.
We found that we’ve got so much
in common and we literally talk
all the time and we‘re always
texting each other.
Unfortunately she lives about
200 miles away from me, so we’ve
not met in person yet. But
tomorrow, she’s coming down on
the train and we’re finally
going to meet! I am so excited.
Shot of the YouTube video playing on the laptop.
 BRIEF 2018
I was wondering if any of you
guys had an internet friend.
Leave a comment below telling me
about how you found them, and if
you’ve met. I’d love to hear
other people’s stories!
Don’t forget to like and
subscribe. See you next week!!
Byeeeeee!
A shot of Hannah watching the
video. She is smiling. She shuts
the laptop screen down and gets
her phone.
She types a message to Annie
saying ‘Can’t wait to meet you
tomorrow! (: x’

The two girls spot each other, run and hug each other.
The two girls walk out of the station together.
HANNAH
How was the drive down here?
 BRIEF 2018
ANNIE
Yeah it was alright thanks, how
was the train?
HANNAH
It was okay.
The pair continue talking. Sound dies out and the screen goes
black.
FADE OUT:
EXT. CAFÉ. AFTERNOON

The girls are sat at an outside table at a café. They are

browsing through the menu deciding what they would like to
drink.
HANNAH
What would you like?
ANNIE
I’ll probably go for sparkling
water.
HANNAH
Okay cool. I’ll go up and order.
Annie sits down at the table playing on her phone waiting for
Hannah to come back.
Hannah walks through the door carrying two glasses of milk.
She places the glasses onto the table.
There you go.
Annie looks at the glasses with a confused face.
ANNIE
Oh, thank you. Um, I thought I
asked for sparkling water?
HANNAH
I thought you would prefer milk
Hannah takes a sip of her milk.
 BRIEF 2018

EXT. PARK. LATE MORNING
ANNIE
So what do you want to do this
week? I thought we could maybe
go to the cinema or something?
I’ve heard there’s a good film
out called ‘truth or dare’
Hannah stares into space, not hearing what Annie is saying
Hannah?
HANNAH
What?
ANNIE
I said, what do you want to do
this week? Would you like to go
to the cinema?
HANNAH
Um Yeah, maybe. To see what?
ANNIE
I was thinking, a film called
‘truth or dare’… it’s like a
horror.
 BRIEF 2018
HANNAH
Oh yes, I like horrors.
ANNIE
Awesome we’ll do that then.

Annie’s phone starts to ring

HANNAH
Who’s that? Who’s calling you?
ANNIE
I don’t know. Hold on, I’ll
answer it.
Annie picks up the phone and holds it to her ear. Hannah
watches closely, looking angry and jealous.

Hello? Who is this?

Chloe! Oh my God no way!

I’m great thank you, how are
you?
Aw good!
Tonight? Um, I don’t think I’m
doing anything no.

Hannah rolls her eyes and looks even angrier.

Oh really that sounds good. What

time?
Yes that’s great. I’ll be there.
See you later, bye!
HANNAH
Who was that?
 BRIEF 2018
ANNIE
Oh that was my friend Chloe.
HANNAH
Chloe? I’ve never heard of her.
ANNIE
Yeah, we were best friends at
Primary school. She’s having a
party for her eighteenth later
and asked if I wanted to go.
HANNAH
Oh right. What am I going to do?
Wait at your house?
ANNIE
Don’t be silly, you’re coming
with me
HANNAH
What?!
ANNIE
Come on, it’ll be fun!
HANNAH
I won’t know anyone though!
ANNIE
I’ll be there, and Chloe is so
nice, you’ll love her.
HANNAH
Alright, fine. I’ll come. Don’t
leave me by myself though.
ANNIE
I won’t, stop worrying. We
should go back home now and get
ready as we have to leave by 7.
HANNAH
Okay
 BRIEF 2018
Hannah gets up and her bag is undone. Some bits of paper fall
on the floor.
ANNIE
Hannah, you’ve dropped some
stuff.
Annie picks up the papers off the floor. She spots a
few photos of herself.

Why are there pictures of me in

your bag?
Hannah turns around in a panic
HANNAH
Don’t touch those
Hannah snatches the pictures off Annie and stuffs them in her
bag.
ANNIE
Oh, um, sorry…
HANNAH
(Snaps) I thought we needed to
go?!
ANNIE
Yeah, lets go…
FADE OUT:
FADE IN:
INT. PARTY ROOM. EVENING
Establishing shots of the party are shown (lights, drinks and
dancing).
Shots of the girls walking up the stairs to the party. As they
enter the party room, the music gets louder.
HAHNNAH
Wow this is loud!
 BRIEF 2018
ANNIE
(Annie chuckles) Yeah it is. I
wonder where Chloe is?
Chloe is talking to a group of people the other side of the
room. She spots Annie, runs over to her and hugs her.
CHLOE
(Chloe squeals in excitement)
ANNIIEEE! How are you?
ANNIE
I’m great how are you?
CHLOE
Amazing! Aw I’ve missed you so
much!
ANNIE
Ah so have I!
CHLOE
So, who’s your friend?
ANNIE
Oh, sorry. This is my friend
Hannah. We met online.
CHLOE
That is so cool! Hey Hannah
Chloe goes to hug Hannah, but Hannah steps back and shakes
hands with her instead.
HANNAH
Hello Chloe
CHLOE
(Confused tone of voice) Right.
Well I’d best make sure nobody’s
puking or anything. Go grab
yourselves some drinks and have
fun. I’ll come and find you in a
bit. Nice to meet you Hannah!
 BRIEF 2018
ANNIE
(Laughs) Sure, no worries. See you
later.
Chloe runs off, leaving Hannah and Annie standing alone
together.
Right, let’s go and get some
drinks!
The girls walk over to the bar and start pouring drinks. More
shots of the party are shown, and shots of Hannah and Annie
having a good time. (Hannah is obviously angry but is
pretending to be having a good time).
Chloe comes over to the girls once again, with a group of her
own friends. She grabs Annie’s arm.
CHLOE
Annie! Come and dance with us!
Don’t be so boring!
CHLOE’S GROUP OF FRIENDS
Yeah come on Annie! (Chanting)
Annie! Annie! Annie!
Chloe and her group of friends drag Annie away from the bar
and Hannah. Annie laughs and goes to dance with them. Hannah
watches in anger. She is furious and extremely jealous.
Hannah goes into her handbag and pulls out a little bottle of
liquid. She pours a little bit of it into Annie’s drink. She
looks up at Annie having a good time, smirks sarcastically and
stirs Annie’s drink with a straw.
Slow motion shots of the drink being stirred and shots of
Annie dancing a shown.
Annie walks towards Hannah. Hannah quickly stops stirring the
drink and puts the liquid away in her bag. She plays on her
phone and pretends that nothing happened.
ANNIE
(Out of breath, but smiling) Hey,
sorry about that! They just
grabbed me and I couldn’t get
away.
 BRIEF 2018
HANNAH
(Sarcastically) It’s okay, don’t
worry about it! I’ve got a bit of
a headache so I’m going to sit
outside for a bit.
ANNIE
Oh no, really?! Do you want me to
come with you?
HANNAH
No no, don’t be silly. You go and
have a good time with your
friends. I’ll come back in when I
feel better
ANNIE
If you’re sure. Call me if you
need anything.
HANNAH
I will.
CHLOE
Annie! Stop running off! Come back
up with us!
Chloe grabs Annie and pulls her onto the dance floor again.
Hannah grabs her bag and coat and leaves the party room.
More party shots are shown. Emphasis on Annie
dancing/laughing/drinking with friends. Annie gradually slows
down and becomes disorientated.
Annie staggers out of the room.
EXT. OUTSIDE PARTY. NIGHT
She opens the door and falls onto the floor outside. She is
coughing, breathing heavily and being sick. She cries on the
floor.
A large shadowed figure stands above her as she continues to
cry.
 BRIEF 2018
HANNAH
(Angry tone of voice) I thought
I was your friend?!
ANNIE
You are my friend!
HANNAH
Well you should have stayed with
me then!
ANNIE
(Screams in pain)

Screen goes black and sound cuts off to silence.

FADE IN:
INT. DARK ROOM. NIGHT

Hannah is sat down at a table, writing a letter. There are

tear marks and mascara stains down her cheeks.
HANNAH
MY NAME IS HANNAH SOLIMAN. I
KNOW WHERE THE MISSING GIRL
ANNIE CRESSWELL IS. BUT IF
YOU’RE READING THIS IT’S TOO
LATE. SHE’S LONG GONE.
I MET ANNIE ONLY TWO DAYS AGO,
BUT WE HAVE BEEN FRIENDS FOR
NEARLY A YEAR. SHE IS THE BEST
FRIEND I HAVE EVER HAD. MAYBE
THE ONLY FRIEND I’VE EVER HAD.
SHE IS EVERYTHING I WISH I COULD
BE. HAPPY, CONFIDENT AND
POPULAR. EVERYONE LOVES ANNIE.
BEING FRIENDS WITH ANNIE HAS
BEEN THE LIGHT IN MY DARK LIFE.
AT SCHOOL I AM ALONE, AND I GET
PICKED ON. I’M ALWAYS LEFT OUT,
BUT ANNIE ALWAYS MAKES ME FEEL
INCLUDED. WHEN I’M HAVING A BAD
DAY, I WATCH ANNIE’S VIDEOS AND
 BRIEF 2018
THE TEARS THAT I CRY TURN INTO A
SMILE.
I HATE TO ADMIT IT, BUT I AM
VERY JEALOUS OF ANNIE. I HATE
THAT SHE HAS OTHER FRIENDS, AND
MY BIGGEST FEAR IS THAT ONE DAY
SHE WILL LEAVE ME.
I KNOW WHAT I HAVE DONE IS
WRONG, BUT PLEASE TRY AND
UNDERSTAND. ANNIE IS TOO GOOD
FOR THIS WORLD, AND WITH ME, SHE
IS SAFE.
Hannah smiles into the camera. She shuts her eyes slowly and
as they shut, the screen fades to black.

Lighting Information: Solutions:

light to create a party effect. However, I

at my friend Lottie’s house. The party
room is already fully equipped with a
wide variety of lights. There are colourful
flashing lights, UV lights and laser
beams. I am going to photograph all
the lights prior to shooting and look at
how each light effects the room and
the scene once they are put on.

Sound Information: Solutions:

This part of Lottie’s house is usually very
quiet unless there is a party going on. It
is separate to the rest of the house so I
am sure it will be quiet when we are
filming.
As I will need to record audio from my
actors when they talk, I will need the
background to be silent to ensure the
microphone picks up everything the
actors are saying. To ensure that the
audio is clear, I will ensure there are no
background sounds, and that all the

Power Information:
The party room has multiple plugs
around the room and quite a lot of
extension leads, meaning that I will not
run out of places to plug any
equipment into if necessary.
Hazards:
There aren’t many hazards that could
occur in this location. The floor is
carpeted so it is unlikely that anyone
would slip over. The only thing I can
think of is that cables could get in the
way and people could trip over them,
and the shots where people are
dancing could become quite
dangerous if they are dancing too
aggressively or they are too close
together.
BRIEF 2018
actors are quiet when someone is
talking. To create the party
atmosphere, I will add music to the
footage during the editing stage so I
can have full control over the audio
within my film. I will also add Foley
sounds of drinks, dancing, shouting and
other sounds found at parties to ensure
it is as realistic as possible.
Solutions:
As I usually do, I will ensure that all of my
equipment is fully charged prior to
filming. This is to ensure that I am fully
prepared to shoot my footage, and it
also means that I will not waste my
actor’s time.
Solutions:
To ensure that none myself or none of
my actors trip over wires, I will ensure
that all cables are put out of the way
prior to shooting and prior to any of the
actors coming into the room. I will also
make it clear to my actors that they
must dance safely in the small space
provided and that they should keep a
safe distance to ensure nobody gets
hurt.

Lighting Information: Solutions:

The décor of this room is mainly white,
and it has a big window, so overall it is
usually quite bright in this room. This
means that footage filmed in here will
be very clear and the lighting will be
good. However, I do want this room to
look quite homely but also quite
depressing at the same time. I want it to
look this way to portray the emptiness
that the character of Hannah is feeling.
To get this dull lighting effect I am going
to shut the curtains and try and make
the lighting as dull and boring as
possible. However, if it does not look
good, I will alter the colour corrections
in the editing stage instead.

Sound Information: Solutions:

Again, this part of the house is fairly
quiet. It is upstairs and during the day
everyone will be downstairs so it is
unlikely there will be any noise
disturbances.
I will not need to worry about audio that
is picked up during the scenes I shoot in
the bedroom because I will be putting
music and a voiceover over the top of
the footage.

Lighting Information: Solutions:

As we will be filming this scene outside,
the lighting will depend entirely on the
weather and time of day that we film;
so I do not have much control over the
lighting situation.
I want this scene to be quite bright and
have warm tones to it to portray the
happiness and warmth of the two
characters meeting each other.
Because of this, I am going to film at
noon on a sunny day, so I will need to
plan to film on a day with a lot of
sunlight.

Sound Information: Solutions:

I have not spent much time at Goring
and Streatley before, but as it is quite a
quiet area, I think the train station is
probably a lot quieter than other train
stations. However, it could become very
busy, especially at rush hour.
Thankfully, the scenes we will be filming
at the train station will require no audio
from the actual footage because it is a
scene with a voiceover. Therefore, I do
not need to worry about any noise
disturbances whilst filming.

Power Information
As this is an outdoor location, there will
be no power sockets available to plug
any of my equipment on to charge.
Hazards:
There are a few hazards at the train
station. The biggest hazard would be
trains and the train track because if
someone was to fall and get hit by a
train, they could die. There is also a
hazard that if the station is busy,
pedestrians could bump into either
myself, my equipment or my actors.
BRIEF 2018
Solutions:
Because I am unable to charge any of
my equipment on location, I need to
make sure that all my equipment is
charged prior to going to the location. I
will also need to ensure that my back
up equipment is charged too; just in
case something goes wrong.
Solutions:
Prior to filming, I will ensure that we find
a quiet place at the station where there
is a lot of free space away from
pedestrians. I will also ensure that the
location we film in is near to, but a safe
distance away from the train tracks and
that my actors are aware that they
need to stay away from the tracks for
their own safety.

MY CAR
Lighting Information:
It is quite difficult to control the lighting
in the car. There are lights fitted into the
ceiling, but they are not very strong at
all. The lighting within the car mainly
relies on the outdoor lighting that shines
through the windows, so scenes shot
within the car are pretty much the same
as shots filmed outside.
Sound Information:
The car can be quite noisy especially
when driving along. Changes in road
surfaces can affect the loudness of the
engine and the radio can cause a lot of
noise.
Power Information
There is only one power socket in the
car and that is in the front.

during the day, meaning that I will be

that there will be a lot of natural light so
I will not be able to do anything with the

Solutions:
I will not be featuring any of the sound
recorded in the footage for this clip
because I will be playing a voiceover
on top of it.

The power socket in the car is very
inconvenient and it would take up a lot
of time to charge the equipment in the

Hazards
It can be quite dangerous filming by a
road, or whilst driving. If you are filming
near a road, there is a risk that someone
call fall into the road and are hit by a
car. If the car is moving, it can be very
risky that the filming could distract the

Solutions:
I am going to ensure that when we film
by the road, we will be filming on the
passenger side, parked next to a
pavement so that we are a safe
distance away from the road. When we
are filming in the car, I will ensure that
my passengers are filming sensibly,
without distracting me whilst I drive.

SCIENCE CLASSROOM
Lighting Information:
The lighting in this classroom is very
bright, and this will allow me to film in
high quality, and without needing to

Sound Information:
The classroom could get quite noisy and

the room, and especially if they are
talking.

Contingency Plan:
Locations:
For all the locations I will be using in my film, I have found a back-up location
so that if something was to go wrong we would still be able to film.

For all the locations that are privately owned, I have got the owner of the
location to fill out a ‘location release form’ so that I have evidence that I am
able to use that location for filming, and so that the owners have been given
all the information that is required regarding filming.

For the locations that are public (e.g. the train stations), I have not got
location release forms for them. I thought that as these are public locations, I
will not require permission to film there as it is a place that is accessible to
everyone. However, if a member of staff that works at the location, or a
member of public authority tells us to stop filming, or to leave, I will be more
than happy to do so as I will need to adhere to their rules.

Actors:
It is important that I have back up actors for my film. There are so many things that
could go wrong when it comes to actors. For example, the actors may become
unreliable, and refuse to turn up to filming sessions. They may also find difficulty in
travelling to filming locations, or they may not have the time. These are only a few
things that could go wrong, there are countless other scenarios that could occur.
Because of this, it means that I must ensure that the back-up actors that I choose
are extra reliable and trustworthy.

I have chosen to use Sam Colledge, Grace David and myself as the back-up actors.
Sam and Grace are in the first year of the Creative Media Course at college. I have
not known them that long, but they have always been very helpful and supportive in
the short time I have known them. I have no doubt that they will be helpful
throughout the filming process.

I have also put myself down as the back-up actor for the role of Chloe. Although this
is not ideal, it could be interesting to have myself feature in a cameo appearance.
The scenes with Chloe are very short, and could easily be filmed using a tripod, so
me featuring is realistic.

Character Actor Back-Up Actor

Hannah Soliman Lara Jones Sam Colledge (Sam would
play a male version of the
main character, but would
instead be called ‘Harry’.
Having Sam as a backup
gives me the opportunity to
be more diverse when it
comes to gender within my
film).

Annie Cresswell Charlotte Ashley-Carter Grace David (I was very

impressed with Grace in her
audition. I feel as though
she fits the role of Chloe the
best, but I think she would
make a good Annie if she
was needed to).

Chloe Grace David Aimee Squire (because the

role of Chloe is so small, I
could make a cameo
 BRIEF 2018

appearance in my film as
the party host ‘Chloe’. The
shots could be filmed with
a tripod so it is possible that
I could be a backup
actress).

Party Extras (Peter, N/A I have decided that I am

actors I have chosen to
work with will be reliable (I
trust that all of them will be
because none of them
have ever let me down
before) and if something
was to go wrong, the
teachers have said I can
film in my back-up location
(the media studio) at
college and they will send
their classes down to fill the
room up.

Classroom Extras N/A Like the party extras, I have

filmed in college (I am
planning to film this scene
in the classroom next to the
main media room), there
will be plenty of media
students available to help
out. However, I am
confident that the initial
actors that I have chosen
to be in this scene will be
reliable and will turn up to
filming. None of them have
let me down before, and I
trust that they will
cooperate.

Equipment:
The most important element of the contingency plan is the back-up equipment. It is
possible to film without the right location and the right actors, but it impossible to film
without the right equipment. Because of this, I have made sure that I have an
 BRIEF 2018

alternative piece of equipment I can use, for every piece of equipment that I am
suing.

The majority of my back-up equipment is going to be loaned from the college. This is
fairly easy. I will just need to fill out a request form, and then pick up the equipment.
However, there is a downside to hiring equipment from the college. As this is a peak
time for equipment hire (with both first and second year CMP students filming their
Final Major Projects) it is highly likely that equipment will be fully booked out.
Because of this, it is important that I ensure that all of my equipment is ready and
working at all times, and if I can find any alternatives to the college equipment, I
should use them.

For the back-up camera, I have asked my friend Will if I can use his camera. He has
a camcorder that films 4K video, and he is more than happy to let me borrow his
camera if something was to go wrong with my own.

For my back-up microphone, another friend (also called Will) has said that he is
happy to lend me his microphone. Both Will’s are very trustworthy, and I am sure that
they will help me with the equipment if necessary.

However, as I previously stated, I am Back-Up Equipment

going to try my very best to ensure that
back-up equipment is not needed.

My house is usually quiet, but most of

can get noisy. Also, with my bedroom
backing onto the garden, it is next to an
alley way which can also get quite
noisy too.

Lighting Information: Solutions:

As we will be filming this scene outside,
the lighting will depend entirely on the

so I do not have much control over the
lighting situation.
I want this scene to be quite bright and
have warm tones to it to portray the

not need to worry about any noise
disturbances whilst filming.

Power Information Solutions:


As this is an outdoor location, there will
be no power sockets available to plug
any of my equipment on to charge.
Hazards
There are a few hazards at the train
station. The biggest hazard would be
trains and the train track because if
someone was to fall and get hit by a
train, they could die. There is also a
hazard that if the station is busy,
pedestrians could bump into either
myself, my equipment or my actors.
BRIEF 2018
Because I am unable to charge any of
my equipment on location, I need to
make sure that all my equipment is
charged prior to going to the location. I
will also need to ensure that my back
up equipment is charged too; just in
case something goes wrong.
Solutions:
Prior to filming, I will ensure that we find
a quiet place at the station where there
is a lot of free space away from
pedestrians. I will also ensure that the
location we film in is near to, but a safe
distance away from the train tracks and
that my actors are aware that they
need to stay away from the tracks for
their own safety.

I will have a lot of people with me.
Because it is a party, people will want

the room to be silent when recording
the audio from my actors.

Solutions:
I do not need to worry about the
lighting of this location being too light or
too dark because I feel as though I
have full control with the lighting. As I
will be filming a party scene in this room
however, I will need to make sure I
practice with the party lights before I
film to ensure that the camera is able to
focus on the characters and the lighting
does not make the scene look too
light/dark.
Solutions:
To solve this issue I have come up with a
solution. To get the clips of people
dancing, I will play music and get shots
of the group dancing from various
angles which I can cut and play
throughout the scene. With this
footage, I will cut the audio out so I can
put music over the top of it when I edit.

Power Information
There are various plug sockets around
the studio which I will be able to use. I
will need to use some of these plugs to
power the strobe lights and lasers that I
will be borrowing from college.
Hazards
The wires that are being used for the
lighting could become a trip hazard if
we are not careful.
BRIEF 2018
To film the shots where I need to record
audio, I will then turn the music off, and
get my audience to dance silently whilst
my actors are speaking. I can then add
music in when I am editing again, and
once it is all edited, the music will flow
through both scenes as if nothing ever
changed!
Solutions:
As usual, I will ensure that all my
equipment is fully charged prior to
filming to ensure that I am not wasting
any valuable filming time, or any time of
my actors.
Solutions:
I will ensure that my actors are aware of
where the wires are and that they are
away from them at all times whilst
filming. I will also tape the wires to the
floor so that they cannot move around
and if people walk near them, they are
less likely to trip.

Lighting Information: Solutions:

It is quite difficult to control the lighting
in the car. There are lights fitted into the
ceiling, but they are not very strong at
all. The lighting within the car mainly
relies on the outdoor lighting that shines
through the windows, so scenes shot
within the car are pretty much the same
as shots filmed outside.
The scenes set in the car will be set
during the day, meaning that I will be
filming during the daytime. This means
that there will be a lot of natural light so
I will not be able to do anything with the
lighting, and I will not need to.

Sound Information: Solutions:

The car can be quite noisy especially
when driving along. Changes in road
surfaces can affect the loudness of the
engine and the radio can cause a lot of
noise.
I will not be featuring any of the sound

Solutions:
I am going to ensure that when we film

pavement so that we are a safe
distance away from the road. When we
are filming in the car, I will ensure that
my passengers are filming sensibly,

follow a strict production schedule to ensure that I am managing my time wisely,
and working closely to the deadlines.

Below you can see the production schedule I have put together. It displays what it is
I am filming, the date, time and location I will be filming too. I will try my very best to
follow this as closely as I can, but things do go wrong, and if they do, I will try my best
to sort them out accordingly.
