I have created a Hiive profile, in order to show any work I have created or collaborated in, as well as share my work with other individuals within the industry. Although my profile is very limited due to my inexperience within the film industry, I plan on making more use of my Hiive profile during my second and increase the amount of films I work on, as well as increase my own scripts for films and add these to my profile.
Although my profile does not have a picture, I opted for a logo based on my initials, as I feel a logo has a more professional feel to it than a "passport" photo.
You Tube I have a youtube channel where I upload my films for easy access, again I only have a couple of films uploaded at present however I have a film currently in pre production, which should be complete by the end of May 2017, as well as a documentary which I am currently editing, which will be listed once complete. Which can be found here https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC86584cyCWmvJWQstqcAQwA
Personal Statement As a confident individual I am able to communicate effectively with other to work as part of a team or gain the knowledge need to work independently to complete tasks. This also translates in being able to lead a team from the years of management experience.

Written By
John Tancock
Logline: Descendants of the last witch to be burnt at the stake in the UK, must join forces to find a lost family member to defeat a enemy who is set upon creating hell on earth
Short Synopsis: Four cousins in a race against time to reclaim a lost family member who was abducted at an early age. They must unite and master their abilities to stop a witch hunter from destroying their family. Unbeknown to them the witch hunter is taking orders from an even deadlier foe.
Family History: Janet Horne (died 1727) was an alleged witch from Scotland, and the last person to be executed for witchcraft in the British Isles. Janet Horne and her daughter were arrested in Dornoch in Sutherland and imprisoned on the accusations of her neighbours. Janet was stripped, smeared with tar, paraded through the town on a barrel and burned alive. Her daughter Jenny escaped.

Jared Half human half demonic entity. 5.11” Age 35 married to Adelaide, 3 children; Jackson, Julie and Chris (not much is known about them) secretive, resourceful, intelligent, cunning.
Treatment: Janet Horne was a loving mother to Jenny Horne who both happened to be witches, this wouldn't be a problem except in the 1700's a war was raged against their kind. Janet and Jenny managed to survive the longest of all witches, or those accused of witchcraft. For Janet and Jenny were powerful witches with the ability to control the elements. Hunted, captured and tortured, Janet sacrificed herself so that Jenny could escape with her unborn child so her legacy would live on, in the last moments of her life Janet vowed that with each passing generation of Horne witches each would grow stronger until the culmination of five Horne witches, each with the ability over the elements of nature. The opening scene, we start with a flashback of Janet being tortured and burnt at the stake while Jenny hides, and eluding capture by the hunters. As Jenny runs through the woods barefoot we hear a haunting scream in the distance, which stops Jenny in her tracks. The scream echoes and we cut to Jett led in his bed, dripping in sweat and out of breath. We next see Jett at a coffee shop with 3 girls, each unique, there is hurried muffled taking as if something important is being discussed, to any observers their conversation means very little, but we learn that Jett has been having these dreams for weeks, and that it means that something is coming, a warning that an enemy is close. In a cold and dark cell all you can see is darkness, a heartbeat drums in the dark, heavy breathing as we get closer we see silhouette of a young girl of 17 or 18. The barred door swings open and a dark shadow stands looming over her. “Master” she exclaims, standing to greet him. We next see Jett, Sapphire Ruby and Amber on a beach its sunset the sky is clear and the orange glow of sunset gives a mystical appearance to the scene. As Jett starts to gesture the sand at his feet starts to twist and swirl in to shapes of animals, first a seal, then a lion and with a concentrated look on his face he creates a life size elephant. At this point, Ruby gestures and creates a stream of fire that burns intensely around the newly created sand elephant, until it begins to glow, red, yellow and orange under the heat of the flame. Amber creates a geyser of water, with a gentle flick of her hands, rapidly cooling the molten sand in to glass, without haste Sapphire creates a swirl of wind to help cool the now newly formed glass elephant. As each takes a step back admiring their masterpiece, grinning at the control they have mustered in such a short period of time. With one final gesture Jett flicks his hand and the elephant crumbles in front of them, they slowly walk away, talk of what is to come fills the night air. Walking along a deserted road a shadow looms in the darkness, Jett on high alert becomes aware of the presence and quickly turns, he sees the young girl from the locked room, Ruby screams out to Violet and a battle ensues. Bolts of fire, jets of water and mini tornadoes race down the street Jett gestures and creates a crevice in the street in front of Violet, who just laughs, they plead with her that they are family but Violets gestures and turns their elements against them. The man from the looked room appears next to violet telling her and urging her to ignore them and that they must be destroyed, Jett ruptures the ground beneath Violet, and Sapphire lifts the cousins in the air on an invisible stream of air, and they make their escape.
Violet back in her room, we see her sleeping with a shadowy figure looming over her, she is having dreams, recalling her short life with her family. The shadow figure is irritated and starts to manipulate her dreams, but she resists, Violet wakes up with a sudden jolt and blows open the locked door and escapes knocking the shadow against a wall. We next see her walking the streets heading home. She reaches her front door dishevelled and bangs furiously. Ruby answers the door stunned, and backs away. Violet pleads with her that she remembers everything and who she is, they hug, cry and fall to the floor in a heap. The cousins are now together, Violet fills them in on the hunter’s plan that he isn’t working alone and that they must prepare before all of them are destroyed. A training montage ensues, each wielding their magic, separately and combining with Violet, Jared is in his workspace preparing, training being spoken to by the same shadow as violet, “I won’t fail” he exclaims slamming his fist on the work top. We see the cousins reading, learning as much as they can for the battle ahead, each growing and mastering their skills. Ready. We finally meet Cain, who is having a conversation with Jared about the plan that is about to play out, the dialogue is mumbled but the words, sleep and end of the world, destruction and annihilation are clear. Jared and Cain stood over an aged book, a large pot can be seen they start adding ingredients in to the pot. Smoke bellows out and rises into the air and suddenly disperses in all directions. People on the street’s look up to see a black cloud, rain suddenly appears and as the first drops of water fall, the people fall to the ground seemingly dead. Jett is staring out of a window, while the rest are still studying, he notices the black cloud and notices something isn’t right, as he continues to look, people on the street in front of his house start to fall down, he dashes out the front door without thinking, a drop of water hits his face as he reaches the first person on the ground. Nothing happens he realises he is immune to whatever is in the rain. Ruby, Sapphire, Violet and Amber all run into the street they all look concerned as they are drenched by the rain, realising the battle was about to begin. The Cousins, follow the black cloud to an old abandoned quarry with a derelict building in the distance, the black cloud hovers over the building, and they make their way to the centre Stood at the entrance to the building are Cain and Jared obscured by shadows, as the cousins get closer their faces become clear, Jared mocks Violet and her choice to re-join the cousins. A fierce battle ensues, and Jared and Cain summon reinforcements, a horde of demonic humans stand between them and the cousins, and the battle continues. Each cousin using their separate abilities to take down each demon. Violet is stood behind them channelling each power and making the cousins powers stronger. The cousins chant together and their firepower increases again, into a swirl of powers which sends the horde flying. Left to battle Jared and Cain alone the battle is at its fiercest, Cain leaps out of the way of a fireball the size of a house and captures Ruby. Ordering the others to stand down or she dies. They do so, regroup and Violet creates a ball of energy, in the ball you can see each power swirling and she sends it flying towards Cain, who releases Ruby, the cousins enter the building and attempt to recall the black cloud. While violet continues to fight outside. The cousins manage to change the cloud which erupts again, and they re-join the fight. Rain continues to drop, but this time each droplet wakes people up. As Cain and Jared are each immobilised the battle draws to an end, the suddenly disappear as a large shadow looms over them all filling the sky, a bellowing voice is heard warning them that this is just the beginning. The cousins are now at home with the realisation that this was just the start.

Sapphire gesturing and snaps some wood from a small tree
with a strong gust of wind, catching them in a current of
air places them gently to the side of the cousins in a pile.
Ruby clicks her fingers and a spark of fire emanates from
her fingertips setting the pile of wood on fire. Casting a
orange glow over the scene.
Jett gestures the sand at his feet starts to twist and swirl

a concentrated look on his face he creates a life size
elephant.

lifts them away as torrent of water blocks Violets path, and
they make their escape.

Role Research
Script writer
As my career progresses, I'm most interested in the role of script writing, a script writer, develops the characters, storyline and dialogue. My first script I have written called "Elementalists" I thoroughly enjoyed writing, and I cannot wait to start filming. This led on to a desire to create more characters and storylines, and I feel a role within scriptwriting would be the most beneficial and enjoyable role for me within the industry.
Although in some instances earnings for a scriptwriter can be in the millions, for example Shane Black sold "The Long Kiss Goodnight" for $4 million
Although these earnings are based on established scriptwriters, expectations should be kept low initially. Also these figures are based on USA figures, below is what a scriptwriter can expect to earn in the UK.
Although scriptwriting is where I would like to progress towards, there are other roles within scriptwriting which would help to improve my skills as a scriptwriter, and additionally can be used as a stepping stone into scriptwriting, these roles include.
Assistant/Junior Script Editor This role ensures that all scripts are of high quality, and meet the standards required of the script. As an Assistant/Junior Script Editor, you could work on one single script or multiple scripts. Also ensuring continuity across a script within set storylines, whilst assisting in script amendments. Although an English degree is not essential, and offering to read scripts and write script reports can help with entry into this role.
Script Editor Can play a key role in collaborating with producers and directors to deliver scripts on time, at the agreed length. Through redrafting scripts the Editor assists the writer to the delivery an achievable script that is fillable, and will work on screen. Additionally a Script Editor can assist and find alternative ways to achieve the same narrative points.
Director A film director will control a film's artistic and dramatic aspects, and visualizes the script whilst guiding the technical crew and actors in the fulfillment of that vision. The director also chooses the cast members, production design, and the creative aspects of filmmaking.
Personal Development plan
Directing
I thoroughly enjoyed my directorial debut on Kantor, and this is a area I would like to develop more in the future, my next project "Elementalists" will be my second time directing, and would like to take the skills I learnt on set and transfer them to my next project, which includes time keeping, motivating the actors and engaging with all other people involved in the project.
Screenwriting
I have so far created one script, which I really enjoyed creating, as well as the characters. I did find that once I started to write I had to keep checking which character had each ability. I intend to write a couple of scripts over the summer break to improve my abilities, as well as give me extra choices for my 2nd year film. I enjoy horror, fantasy and sci-fi so I would like to try to do a script based on each of these.
Camera
Although I haven't actually worked on a set as a camera operator due to my inexperience using camera's for the second year I would like to learn more about camera's and the basics on using them, and perhaps attempt to be a camera operator for one of the second year films, as I feel this would benefit my own films, and visualisations from script to screen.
Editing
Again like camera work, I have very little knowledge of editing, however I will be editing my Documentary and this will be my second time editing a film. I will in the second year attempt to work with other students to learn more and improve my editing skills.
Lighting
For my first film "Sleeping" I found working with lighting very challenging, as creating shadows was very difficult. However after the lighting lecture, i found some of the issues I had experienced were due to my own lack of knowledge of the area. I would like to in the second year work more with lighting and experimenting with different lights to create different feelings on screen.
