Planning: Treatment



While researching what a film treatment would look like I found this, I plan to use his to help me write my groups treatment.
Treatment

Our films starts with a monochrome picture of family photos burning, where everything, but the fire is in monochrome. Coming up with the first title of directed by, which is white and in a sharp font, flickers out. This is where the Latin exorcism starts to play as non-diegetic sound in the background.
Panning shot of newspapers on a bench, blood splattered, with faces scratched out, flickers a bloody meat cleaver, then back. Title of producer flickers up in same font as before, flickering out again.
Editing pace starts to pick up skipping from video, to picture, to video - start back on the fire, quickly going to a clip of possessed Evangeline standing hunched over in a dark corner of a room, only light coming from behind camera - this only flashes up briefly before changing. The next thing seen is a pentagram devil's trap painted in red - yet again the only colour in a Monochrome picture - on the floor of a room, the third title of executive producer comes up, before flickering to a close up of an arm laying in a blood puddle, before flickering back. Goes back to the burning family photos, then to a dark and empty park, with a swing creaking and swinging back and forth, bringing up the next title of costume design.
This then goes back to the newspaper articles, where more get thrown down onto the table, flashing to Evangeline where shes moved closer to the camera, but you still can't see her face.
Flashes to an image of a cross, then to a woman's leg in a puddle of blood, bringing up the next title. This then flashes back to Evangeline where she has gotten even closer to the camera, then quickly flashing to a wall with with a blood splatter on it.
This then goes back to the burning photographs, with more being added to the fire and a close up through the flames of a child in one of the photos; this is when the next title comes up.
Flashes back to Evangeline only just a few steps away from the camera now, still unable to see her face, before flashing to a demon sigil, then a close up to a hand in a blood puddle.

Then back to Evangeline who is now at the cameras she looks up, she has blood round her mouth, the image flickers and all you get is a extreme close-up of her eyes as they go fully black, you hear a screech and the screen flickers and goes black. The the title 'Christo' shows up in white scratchy writing, flickering and a blood splatter over it.
