BOROHOOD
Characters
- Jamal - Works for "TS10 Crew": Drug Dealer/Killer
- Ricky Boggajohnson - Works for "TS10 Crew": Drug Dealer/Killer
- James - Leader of TS10 Crew
- Carl - Leader of Linthorpe Mafia
A gang crime film based in Middlesbrough, United Kingdom. There are two main character's. One call Jamal and the other called Ricky. Jamal and Ricky are two best friends who are also working for one of the top gangs in Middlesbrough, known as the TS10 Crew. There main rival gangs are the Linthorpe Mafia.
The TV Show runs over 6 Episodes and will air on E4. and will start when Jamal and Ricky join the gang. It is not easy for them as the gang members get them to do all the dirty work such as killing people, dropping off and picking up drugs whilst they sit and relax in there home. Known as "The Den". It shows the hard life they are living, and how they feel about it knowing if they don't do what they say they are either beaten up or dead. It also shows what it is like being a rival to other people, and just being scared to know you could get murdered when you walk out your door.
Audience
Audience
The target audience is aimed at Males, who are Teenagers/Young adults. As it is a action gang crime series, female's usually aren't interested in those genres but males are. Also older male's are usually interested in Gang crime TV Shows. It also will be suitable for younger people as it will show what life is like being part of a gang, showing that it is bad and you can end making wrong life decisions. So it might influence people not to get involved in something like that or if the people are already involved in gang crime show them that they need to find a way out, and hopefully guide them to help because it will show how their life can end up staying in something as dangerous as gangs.
Market
Top Boy is the most similar TV Show to Borohood, as they are both in the gang crime genre. Top Boy was similar as it followed two young teenagers as they were dragged into a life of gangs and featured two rival gangs and showed the life of the members as well as when the two gangs clashed.
Top Boy had Two Seasons and 8 Episodes overall. It aired from 2011 to 2013, and aired Channel 4 in the United Kingdom. It now is on Netflix for the world to see. When it aired on Channel 4 the first episode had over 1.1 Million Viewers which was amazing for a first episode in a New series and it continued throughout the show which aired for four night's in a row in 2011 and 2013.
Top Boy's target audience is the same as "Borohood" which is Teenagers/Young Adults. This is because most people who are over the age of 30 aren't really interested in Gang crime as much as younger people. This is because younger people maybe around gang crime more than older people as they might live in area's gang crime happens or are part of a gang themselves so they can relate to it.
Another TV Show that could be compared to Borohood is Power. Power is a crime action TV Show based in New York, where it shows the life of a drug dealer dealing with family problems, and also running New York biggest nightclub. It has many twists and turns, keeping it interesting in every episode.
Power is shown on American TV on the Starz Network. They also put the New Episode's a day late on Netflix for people in other countries for example: United Kingdom. Which is also similar to Top Boy. Top Boy is shown on UK TV on Channel 4 but shown on Netflix for the rest of the world. This what I would want Borohood to do. Show on TV Then be on an On Demand service like Netflix or Amazon Prime Instant Video.
Movies that are similar to Borohood are movies such as Kidulthood, Adulthood and Brotherhood. All three movies are very similar as the focus on gang crime in the United Kingdom. It shows the life the people live, what they get up to and how dangerous being involved in something like that is. it kind of gives a behind the scenes view of what gangs get up to and their life living at home which is what Borohood intends to do. It also shows if people end up on the wrong side of a gang what will happen.
Production
It wouldn't be a huge budget for the production of Brotherhood. I wouldn't need anything special for the production of this project. I would need 10 Actors, there are four main characters as listed above in this document. The others will be in the background part of the gangs, so it doesn't look like there is just a few members in each gang, The other actors won't have any major roles, or speech just standing there and maybe an action scene. The whole series will be set in Middlesbrough. On Linthorpe Road, low class streets and in the main center of Middlesbrough. Scene's include the main characters in their homes, clashing with the rival gang usually ending up in a fight, murder scene. It will also show an average day for them for example shopping in the town center, hanging with friends and making deals with illegal drugs. I will need a wide range of props such as weapons like guns, knifes and knuckle dusters. I would also need fake/pretend illegal drugs such as cocaine, weed and MDMA as those are the most popular drugs to be dealt with in the UK today. I will also need two cars, reasonable price so the budget isn't too high as each gang will need a car to ride around in. The whole budget should cost under £15,000. As i will need to rent camera's, microphones, clothes, rent a car, props and actors.

Proof Read
During the production
of a Movie, they have to go through the 5 Production features. 1. Development
2. Pre-Production, 3. Production, 4. Post Production, 5. Distribution. At the
development stage a producer of a film will go to a Movie company such as Warner
Bro's, Disney or Universal and share the idea they have for a movie. However if
they aren't well know in the film industry they might start and share their idea to a smaller
company Film 4 Productions. Or if the producer want's to make another movie in a
franchise or a sequel they will look at Cinema Ticket sales and DVD/Blu-ray
sales to see if they first movie was successful enough to make a second or
third movie.
The first stage is Development. This is where the planning for the Movie starts. The script for the movie will be wrote over a number of months. Then after that they will work out how much the movie will cost to create, and they will either use the money they have or have it funded, for example from the government. If the movie were a sequel then the distributor will look at the DVD, Blu-Ray and Cinema Ticket sales to see if the first movie did well enough so they don't waste money and it would be the same if it was a franchise they would look at the previous movies. If it weren’t the producer would then present the movie ideas to a potential investor who would provide money for the movie to be shot. Then they would do market research and find out who the movie's target audience is. This will also decide what advertisements you will create for the movie, if its new kid's movie the advertisements might be toys, and on cereal box's or on food products like cheese-strings. If it's an adult movie you should probably create an intense movie trailer to be online or TV.
