Your treatment should be no more than 2 sides of A4 and should be clear to read, well punctuated with subheadings. It may include a picture if it helps set the mood of the piece. Your treatment should include:
- A working title - This can alter from initial idea to finished production
- A synopsis - This is a short paragraph which explains the key features of the story
- The themes and concept of the film - What is the film about? What themes will your film deal with? Love, friendship, ambitions, recovery etc...
- The length and other technical details - This is how long you think the finished production will be and the format that it will be shot in e.g. HD Digital and the sound e.g. stereo sound
- An outline of the target audience - This should be more detailed than just the age and gender of your audience, most of your ideas have a broad audience base and this should be considered. Yu can also make links to similar documentaries. You should also indicate where you hope it will be shown e.g. film festivals, type of cinema, online (which type of sites?)
