Final Idea

We will have a shot of the moon, at the beginning of the film, with a slow zoom out with an over voice of a girl resiting a poem. Black and white photo from inside of the car through the window, this will be a point of view shot from the stalker. There will be a freeze frame, to cut to the girl closing the curtains. The camera will the move to the girl in her bedroom getting ready for bed, this will be shown through a point of view shot from the web cam in her room; zooming into the girls eyes, there is then a graphic match of the girl in her nightmare in a coffin, the girl will then wink to the camera and giggle. It then cuts back to her in reality becoming restless in bed, cutting back to her in the coffin, more giggling as she comes towards the camera and the audience. The man is seen to be in the corner before the girl notices, the camera follows the girl sitting up with a match on action from the side view. When the girl is sat up it shows the gun put up to her head, she obviously protests, the gun shot goes off, as it does it cuts to a black screen, there is another gun shot and the titles and production names come up. In the short clip of the beginning of the film, a man will be looking at pictures stuck up on a wall, which is then juxtaposed to the actual event.

Initial Ideas

Plan 1:
  • Creepy looking toys in the room. Possibly a pan shot of this.

  • There is a gunshot twice, on the first shot the screen goes blank and on the second the titles come up.

  • The stalker is seen, holding photographs after the title sequence.

  • Story telling on video, camera cuts to girl waking up (graphic match on the eyes)


  • Match on action, as girl wakes up, from the side.


  • flashbacks using black and white photos, nightmare, flashes back to the girl and back to the nightmare.

The locations which would be needed in this would be:
-a bedroom

-a point of view from a car

-a regular house

-a street/alleyway



Plan 2:
  • A male, being the main character

  • The character is running towards something, the audience doesn't know what, with an overvoice telling the story.

  • An urban setting would be used for this

  • An anti-climax being is that the man was running for milk- this is a false panic for the audience.
The locations which would be needed in this would be:
-Jitty (blaby/whetstone)

-A dark street

-Photo of shot
-Subway - tunnel
-Garages












Plan 3:

  • Two young boys outside smoking, messing about in an open space.


  • A third man walks through this open space wearing long trench coat and a cap.


  • He sees the two boys, there is then a flash back to the two boys when they were younger (new actors about 7 or 8)


  • We see the man in a trench coat in all of these flashbacks


  • It then goes back to the present and the two boys notice this man


  • The characters stop, and the mans movements are sped up so he is walking to the boys faster.


  • The camera is on the floor and we see in the shot a base ballbat fall to the floor with blood on it.


The locations which would be needed in this would be:

-Garages

- A park
