I need to create a short film trailor my my AS media studies coursework, it can be any genre of film, but my mind is blank, a comedy would be difficult because everyone has a different sense of humour, and the setting has to be close to college, around here there isnt much forrests or fields, theres houses, a park, canal, motorway, bridge etc.. any ideas? thanks in advance.
 
When I was a film student, I remember one guy attached bungie cords to a camera and then dropped it off a building. The result was an entire class of people getting sick because of the startling images that showed when a camera is dropped off a tall building. I think it resulted in someone committing suicide in the short film he made. It was supposedly suicide from the jumper's perspective.

Interesting concept. I just watched from the top of the science building on campus. And no, I wasn't one of those who got sick, since I had the opportunity to edit his film. So, I had to watch those images first hand!!

Also, make sure your camera is VERY secure if you were to plan something like that. We put the camera inside a backpack, so we were lucky. I think his short film was inspired by Alex jumping out of a window in A Clockwork Orange. However, Kubrick had more than one camera to work with, although I think he only needed to shoot it once. (probably the only time he never did a second take!)
