Ideas for soap trailer

Name: Disturbance Street
When: Weekdays at 7:00pm on Channel 4
Length of trailer: 1 min-1.5 minutes
Filming location: Studio
Number of character that appear in the trailer: 6
Influence examples: Hollyoaks

Videos ideas: Hollyoaks- Strightly Not for the faint Hearted. The video is really clever because it uses intertexuality with Strightly Come Dancing; a few characters in the soap are dancing and giving each other funny looks. There is splashing wine and evil looks. We are going to use the idea of a catwalk. The catwalk will be situated on the street or in a studio and there will be tension between the different characters.
Storyline: A love triangle between the rebellious chav, bad boy and business woman. The two woman fight over the “local stud of the street”; as they walk down the catwalk pulling each other’s hair.

Lighting: Stand up lamps and spotlights to create the catwalk effect.

Detailed Narrative: The local stud walks done the catwalk and half way down, he is joined by the typical chav who links his arm. The business woman then walks on the catwalk and links the local studs other arm and the typical chav pushes the independent woman and the local stud walks off the catwalk, the two girls start fighting, pulling each other hair, stamping on each other feet and then the career focused woman pushes the chav on the floor and finishes her walk up the catwalk. The typical chav jumps onto the back of the career focused woman and pulls her hair. They walk off and the chav pushes the camera.
