We aim to raise money to fund our short 'neon noir' thriller film 'The Twelfth Hour'.
We want to modernise a style that isn’t as relevant in recent cinema as it was 20 years ago, which is commonly referred to as Neon-noir.
To Achieve this we intend to adapt the aforementioned style by using a selective range of bright, neon colours. By doing this we will define and characterize the future dystopian world that our protagonist will exist within. In terms of story and structure, we will keep the concept original and interesting by combining elements of different genres such as suspense, thriller, action and drama to create something completely new.
We will tie socio-political themes, specifically of modern Manchester, Birmingham and London into the story we tell, so that the film will also appeal to a politically charged demographic.
