First Idea

After discussions with our group we have decided on an idea that fits in with the psychological thriller genre, that we think we will be able to take further and progress it into our final film idea.
The outline for our film is -
• Start with a suicide tape, that leads people to believe person is dead.
    - the tape will be made to look like a webcam has filmed it
    - We want to include some form of notes with messages/ victims story that will form the basis of the suicide tape.
    - We will try and make it so that we show what is believed to be a body hanging.

• The big plot in our film, is that the person in the suicide is not actually dead, and she then goes on a killing spree leaving clues behind - however, because the police think she is dead, they do not suspect her.

• For the title sequence we will link it into the whole notes idea and have an animated title sequence where you see notes enter the screen and then the titles (our names etc.) get written on.

• After the title sequence we will have a small section of live action film that shows a crime scene with one of the murdered bodies, and a crowd of people. In the crowd will be the supposed suicide victim. The camera will then cut to a close up of their face, revealing to the audience that she is still alive.

Trying to fit all of this in the two minute time limit will be very hard to do, yet I think once we have started to discuss the shot list and narrowed down exactly what we want to include, it will be easier to visualise the opening and make it fit in the time limit.
