Developing a Story: Initial Concept

What following is the initial concept with I am working on developing further.  The story takes place in The Inbetween and follows a small group of the inhabitants. 

Synopsis:

The Inbetween.  The inhabitants aren’t sure what this place actually is, or how they got there.   Each faction holds a different opinion.  Perhaps they are really dead, or dreaming.  Or perhaps the conspiracy theorists are right and they are subjects of a psychological experiment.  

 

Opinions remain divided.  But, they do know that this world isn’t real.  Not in the sense that the physical world is.  This world is shaped by the inhabitants’ thoughts and memories.  For some it is like a prison, for others a paradise.  But The Inbetween is also haunted by nightmares and the terrifying creatures known as Reapers.  

When a young woman wakes up in The Inbetween with no memories of her former life it isn’t long before she encounters the inhabitants of The Inbetween and tries to piece together both her own fragmented memories and the secrets of this strange world.

However, when her new friend is taken by a Reaper she decides to join in the ill-advised rescue mission which will see the group venturing into the void where travellers either disappear for good or find themselves drawn back to where they started.    

The Inbetween is a fantasy, drama, action film with a primary target audience of 15-25 year olds.   

The film will contain a combination of Visual Effects (VFX) and live action and utilise the Greenscreen where necessary. 

For this project a 2 minute trailer will be created to showcase the feature film concept.
