This proposal is for a 5-10 minute horror short film called "Journalism". It will follow a journalist investigating reports of a young girl's ghost haunting a school built on the site of her home where she died in a fire 100 years ago. Various scary shots are proposed, like a bathroom door swinging open by itself. Legal and ethical considerations for child actors are discussed. The style will be jumpy and scary rather than gory. Permission would be needed to film on location and use copyrighted music. Different shot types are proposed to convey the vulnerability of the girl ghost and the menacing nature of her protective mother.
