Costumes that the cast will wear

O The costumes that the cast will wear will be normal 21st century clothes. As are film is set in current times.

O This would also make it more realistic to the audience, if they can see the costume reflecting the time period.

O The kidnapper face will never be seen so therefore, they will only need to wear a dark hoody and jeans and dark boots.

Jeans suggest the casualness within the thriller. It also shows that they are apart of the modern era.

The natural colours (cream, white, green and blue) suggest the purism within the characters.

The splashes of dark colours imply that there could be danger ahead

Forest/houseO The reason why we will film here is because

this is an easy area for filming to take place.

O It is a good area to build up dramatic tension in the sense that it is an unusual place for a thriller to take place.

O Also you do not have to pay for anything it is free and easily accessible.

O It will also be set inside of a house as the couple are indoors at the start of the title sequence.

Story lineA young couple are sitting together watching a film. However, what they do not know is someone is watching. The boyfriend leaves the room to make a drink, which he then spills. This extends his time out of the room which gives the kidnapper an opportunity to make entry through the back window. The kidnapper approaches the girl from behind and places his hand over the girl’s mouth which is the last shot we see.

Lighting O The first shot will be set in the forest, we will

use high key lighting to show contrast in both sceneries which will be the forest and house.

O Inside the house the lighting will be darker, as this would symbolise the mood. The lighting by the window will be purple as this connotes evil intentions. The rest of the house will be natural lighting.

O The end shot is of the kidnapper placing his hand over the girls mouth. We will use fill lighting to his hand over her mouth and the fear in the girls eyes.

Camera angles O Longshot – the audience can see everything taking place and what is

around the scene e.g. the kidnapper standing outside of the houseO Extreme close up – the audience will be able to see, in detail what is

happening and facial expression of the characters. The fear in the girls eyes at the end.

O Birds Eye view- the audience will be able to see everything from a different perspective and to show the location of where it is set e.g. of the house and of the forest.

O Worm eye shot- To make certain characters or objects seem bigger in stature. e.g. when the kidnapper is walking up to the house.

O Point of view shot- the audience can see what is happening from another characters perspective e.g. the kidnapper seeing the couple.

O High angle shot- Again, the audience can see what is surrounding the characters and this could be used to create the tension in the scene. We will use this towards the end when the girl is being tied up.

All the camera angles will be used to build this tension and create an eerie atmosphere to the film.

Music O The music that we intended to use will be created

on garage band or another music software.

O The characteristics of the music will be, that it will have the same fast beat but with low tone that will increase in pace and tone.

O The effect that this will have is, it will build up tension slowly and also suggest further action will take place (Piorectic code) Also creating the typical thriller feel to the film.

O This is an example of how we want our music to sound.

Typography We have decided to stay with a modern thriller film and we will be using phones to display are titles. The girl and boy will be receiving messages ad when they are opened the producers name. However we have also decided that we would like to go with a more realistic approach, for example letting the names of producers appear whilst a character is doing a certain gesture or activity. We had been inspired by a short opening to a thriller, it is called immersed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhqwLgyzy38The

typography has appeared naturally as the girl performs an action/gesture

The typography would appear like this on the iPhone

A Producers name will appear in the message bubble as we feel this is a more current and modern way of doing things

Transition of camera shots After the extreme close up we would zoom out of the extreme close up into a mid shot showing the couple together watching a movie on the sofa.

after this there will be a quick editing of scenes showing the kidnapper getting into the house quietly.

We would then fade this shot of the couple, showing the kidnapper right behind them.
