Synopsis
When nobody turns up to Willie’s birthday party, his Grandma and only attendee, Mrs. Bangor, seeks revenge on those who were invited.
The film will cut back and forth between Mrs. Bangor and Willie together, as Willie runs through the names of his friends who failed to attend, and Mrs. Bangor, alone, hunting down each of Willie's friends: Spray Tan Sam, Calvin Clean, and Legless Liam.
Plan and Contingency
We are planning on renting a cottage for the grandma's house in Maidstone, not far out of Cambridge, as well as filming in locations local to the London borough of Barnet.
We will film in several locations across Barnet and at Maidstone and for that we require a budget to transport our actors and crew safely to and from set.
We will also be looking at hiring two cars for the shoot to travel to and from set in an efficient manner. We will be needing to cover petrol expenses and also the fees for those giving up their time to drive for us.
If we can make the £800 amount the money will be split like this:
- £300 on Location
- £200 on Travel
- £100 on Art Department
- £150 on Catering
- £50 Contingency (along with contributions from the crew)
With this money we will be able to make the film, we all plan to chip in ourselves to the contingency fund so as we can make sure nothing goes wrong on set. We plan to shoot outside of London so transport will be a heavy cost, paying for fuel and public transport for those who cannot make it in the car. The money in the Art Department will give us enough to get the props and set dressing we need for the film.
With the full amount we plan to budget the money like this:
- £500 on Location
- £300 on Travel
- £300 on Art Department
- £200 on Catering
- £200 as a Contingency fund (along with contributions from the crew)
More money raised will enable us to invest in better locations to shoot and grant more resources to the Art Department in putting together our sets. We will also have a comfortable Contingency Fund to ensure production goes smoothly and open us up to do more reshoots if required.

Mrs. Bangor - a lovely sweet old British lady, but with a thirst for revenge that she is very good at hiding, especially from Willie.
Spray Tan Sam - a good looking young man who is obsessed with his looks, he’s a flirt and charms every girl he meets. And of course, has an obnoxiously orange spray tan.
Calvin Clean - a clean freak, carries Cillit Bang everywhere he sets foot. Always keeps his car in pristine condition, even to the point where nobody else is allowed inside.
