Drafting and planning

Genre

I have decided to choose the drama film genre for my trailer. This is because after researching into the main film genres, drama appears not only the most realistically achievable but also because i like the combination of dialogue and action to convey the plot and appeal to what would be a broad audience.
I also like how the drama genre is open to many conventions and can combine very easily with other genres such as action (black mass) https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=3664132413503481447#editor/target=post;postID=57724324311725499;onPublishedMenu=posts;onClosedMenu=posts;postNum=2;src=postname

but also horror (knock knock) https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=3664132413503481447#editor/target=post;postID=620928611812247011;onPublishedMenu=posts;onClosedMenu=posts;postNum=1;src=postname

Although primarily a drama, i may wish to include elements of the the horror genre and so depending on the balance of the trailer's content it amy become a full genre cross-over

Plot

I have drafted a synopsis for my film, and will after some research, decide upon a title for my film. However for the time being the rough outline of the film plot is as follows:

An ordinary teenage boy, not soon after the tragic death of his parents, must suffer more losses before growing suspicion of a killer that leads him to believe that his parent's death was not accidental or of coincidence.  However in overcoming obstacles and fighting his emotions he must discover the truth quickly before he is next to be taken by an unknown force striving to thwart his family name.
