Most Wanted Treatment

This is our treatment for our opening to our film, now named "Most Wanted". This is a short of the opening to help us write our screenplay for the opening.
Most Wanted Treatment

The opening starts of with two of the three gangsters sitting inside a retro looking café, waiting for the lead gangster of the group. Their names are Callaghan and Cooper.

Callaghan is tall and is very talkative. He speaks extremely fast, to the point of being incomprehensible.

Cooper is silent. He rarely talks longer than a few seconds. However, when he does talk, it’s usually something that makes him sound relatively unhinged mentally.

They switch between talking about the upcoming bank heist and trivial things such as how they spent the money made on the last job. Before he enters, Mr. Edgar is smoking a cigar, looking menacing as he slowly walks past the window.

Mr. Edgar enters and Callaghan moves from his seat from both respect and fear. He is carrying a metal briefcase, containing blueprints, poker chips and pack of cards with the joker on the top.

Throughout the rest of the opening, they discuss about the upcoming bank heist. During this, clips of the actual heist taking place are intercut between the conversations.

When Cooper asks about how many people he gets to kill, a clip of him killing guards during the heist takes place over the audio.

The scene ends with the men walking out of the café. While they pass by the camera, the shot freezes on one of gangster and their name appears under them as part of the credits. This repeats for the other gangsters. When the last gangster leaves the shot, the title of the film pans right into the shot. The title stays while the background fades to black.
