This document contains ideas and outlines for three short film trailers. The first involves two boys who break into an abandoned house where one gets trapped inside while the other must find a way to help him escape a killer. The second is about a man who returns from holiday to find someone has stolen his identity and an old friend helps prove the imposter is not him. The third follows a boy who was friends with a psychopath and makes a new friend who is then targeted. The third trailer is selected as the most interesting and realistic for the filmmakers to produce.

Narrative-A young boy (Sam) who was previously friends with a psychopath moves on from
making holding packages for his friend by making a friend (Will) with a new student who

realistic and simple film trailer which we are capable of doing.
