Selecting Ideas

Drama:

Pros:
- Different so it stands out from the rest.
- A lot of possible directions at which the story can go.

Cons:
- A problem is if the main character is a comedian. There would be a lot of set up to have a stage and an audience.
- It would probably not be viable with a low budget.


Action


Pros:
- Attract more viewers due to it being a popular genre.
- It would have a unique setting. This could be the "London Eye", or a chase in "Oxford Street".
- Fast paced action sequences which fully immerses the audience.

Cons:
- Problems with how to pull of stunts/effects.
- Also budget may be too low to pay for the production.


Horror

Pros:
- The circus may be difficult but the abandoned house would be easier to with not much of a budget.
- Smaller cast would be needed.
- Its a realistic story line.

Cons:
- Effects like blood and gore may be hard to pull off. 
- Casting the killer may be difficult due to him being a middle aged man. 
- Could be quite expensive to cast.


Comedy

Pros:
- With the drama there is a lot of opportunity for different directions at which it could lead to. 
- Age group of the main characters would be easy to cast due to being in a school.

Cons:
- Perhaps being on the run it would require too many locations to film.
- Party would be difficult due to needing a large group of extras. (costly)
