Proposal

Our idea for the single camera assignment is a comedic spin on the popular multi-franchised 'Sherlock Holmes' in which the character of Sherlock is mentally unstable who somehow solves crimes due to becoming serious whenever at the crime scene. The title for the short film itself is 'Shernot Holmes' the title came about as he is /not/ Sherlock; hence Sher-not. The title and plot was highly popular with the focus group, receiving good feedback. The main characters are as follows: Sherlock Homes, DR. John Watson, James Moriarty and DCI Greg Lestrade. We're going to film it in only one area, at home. Although this may seem like a bad move, sadly this is the only option we have due to timing/schedule. The target audience is going to be fans of the multiple renditions of the 'Sherlock Homes' franchise and people who are into comedy shows/comedians; Aged 15-21, middle and working class and both males and females. We have a small budget however we have all the equipment and editing software needed provided by the college.
