Developing my idea: My main aim for this project is to keep things simple and stick to what I know. I am a massive cycling fan so therefore have decided to focus the plot on a keen cycling prodigy about to make it to the top. However I don't want to revolve the film around it because cycling would only attract a niche audience. The story is split in three distinct parts- the news of the the cyclist's death and it's impact on friends and family- the life of the cyclist and training regime and his struggles at home- the drunken lads who drink drive and crash their car into him. What makes this story interesting is that it is more than just a murder mystery. It contains elements of action, thriller, suspense and realist genres. The second part of the film will be a faced paced montage will will boost the tempo of the film but i also want create a parallel at the end. The cyclist goes out cycling at night whilst at the same time a group of lads are partying and getting drunk and then step into a car. The two stories collide when the lads crash into the cyclist.
