This document proposes a documentary film titled "Fashion Through the Lens" that would follow the lives of influential fashion designers such as Karl Lagerfeld and Vivienne Westwood, and models who promote their brands, examining the hard work of fitting into high fashion and if it is worth it. It provides potential casting choices for models like Cara Delevingne and designers like Chanel. The proposed director is Tom Ford, known for the successful film "A Single Man". A funding letter compares it to the profitable film "Coco Before Chanel" and argues Tom Ford's direction could similarly lead to box office success.

of fashion and the people around them. I would look into the lives of designers such as Karl Lagerfeld
and Vivienne Westwood and how these styles transition onto the high street to places such as
topshop/topshop unique. I would also follow the models in the industry that promote such clothing
and the hard work they go through to fit into such high end brands and whether its really worth it
all. The title of this film is fashion through the lens

Modern movies contain more violence and explicit content than older Soviet films from the 1950s-1970s that were popular among previous generations. Some popular older Soviet films discussed include Ballad of a Soldier (1959), Gentlemen of Fortune (1972), and The Diamond Arm (1968), which were comedies and dramas about love and everyday life. Modern blockbuster films mentioned that are popular now include Transformers (2007), Avatar (2009), Finding Nemo (2003), and The Twilight Saga series (2008-2012). While films now have more advanced technology, some say the humor and stories are not as sophisticated as older films. Preferences in movies depend on the times and beliefs of different generations.Presentation on Production Company

In the 1940s-1950s, war movies and westerns dominated, while the 1960s saw the rise of larger-than-life spy films like James Bond. The 1970s introduced grittier detective films and martial arts influences. By the 1980s, action films had taken over Hollywood with franchises and rising budgets.

Warp Films targets older audiences for some of their films because older audiences are seen as more reliable and having more disposable income than teenagers. An example is the 2007 film "Grow Your Own" about a group of gardeners at an allotment who initially dislike some refugees given plots but come to accept them. Another example is "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel" about British pensioners moving to a retirement hotel in India, which doesn't rely on special effects but focuses on social realism that appeals to older viewers.

- 1. IDEA: Id write a film documentary following the lives of models and the designers who influence the world of fashion and the people around them. I would look into the lives of designers such as Karl Lagerfeld and Vivienne Westwood and how these styles transition onto the high street to places such as topshop/topshop unique. I would also follow the models in the industry that promote such clothing and the hard work they go through to fit into such high end brands and whether its really worth it all. The title of this film is fashion through the lens Casting choice: As its a documentary there arent any characters, so this is just my choice of people that I find influentially current enough in the fashion world to be involved in the film to play themselves.

Funding Letter: The film that I am proposing to you as an investment is a documentary following and surrounding the lives of the people within the fashion industry and the industry and its influences as a whole. The possible audiences for this film vary but Id say it would be for a fashion enthusiast aged between the ages of 16 to mid thirties. A film Id compare this to, Id say is along the likes of coco before chanel as even though its more biographical film,it still links within the fashion industry. Coco before Chanel profit turn over: Budget $23 million Box office $50,812,855[1]
- 3. As you can see the film that is in comparison to the one that I am proposing to you was a success at box office making double its budget in box office. If you were to fund my film, I find that the director most suitable for this production would be Designer turned Director Tom Ford. In 2009, Ford made his film directorial debut with A Single Man, which was based on the novel of the same name by Christopher Isherwood. The film stars Colin Firth, Julianne Moore, Nicholas Hoult and Matthew Goode. His Film was a massive success upon which I hope such success follows with this production too.
