Idea number 1
Title: Hidden/ Followed
Plot: The plot is about a young girl that lives her daily life (going out with friends,walking to schooletc..)but there is one change, she is being followed by a man. We cannot see him or hear him we can only feel his presence there. The plot eventually leads up to the girls murder. However it is filmed through the mans eyes so we do not see him until the end.
Opening sequence:
Shows girl getting of train use high angle to make her look vulnerable she then walks down the street. I would use cross cut too blurry black and white shots that has an essence of a cctv camera feel about it to suggest someone could be watching. It is from the mans eyes so we would use a handheld camera to suggest the fact he is moving and makes it more realistic for the audience. Have a mans heavy breathing in the background to suggest his presence as he follows her. The credits are hand written to contrast with the hand held camera to make it more personal when the names are written scratching noises can be heard with snippets of a loud machine in the background. Photos of someone's hands quickly spelling out the credits. Fragmented cuts between methods of media.
Idea number 2
Title: ‘The
Missing’
Plot: Thriller about a girl who goes missing and is never found. Suspension is held all the way through as you desperately want to know where she is. Family and friends look for her everywhere and clues are given all the way through about where she could be. Could it be the family? Are they guilty? Eventually they figure out that someone has abducted her and there is a poignant ending as her dead body is dumped by the river.
Opening sequence: Flashing images of the river in different effects (such as black and white and coloured ) sharp machine noises. Photos of someones hands putting together a puzzle spelling out credits fast forwarded cross cut too river and to missing poster that is all cut up and fragmented.
Idea number 3
Plot: A ten year old orphan girl is welcomed in to a family where the dad sexually assaults her. The whole film is based around the girls traumatizing life and how she tries to escape from not only her new family but the memory’s she will never forget.
Opening sequence: Flashing images and shadows of a man touching the little girl- shadow of his hands and scale factor changes from big too small. Abstract/schizophrenic/scratchy (eerie music). Shows orphan running through trees in the dark panting with a whispery voice.
Idea number 4
Plot: A girls rape leaves a village traumatised. People try to find the suspects and it becomes a hunt as more and more clues are revealed until eventually she is murdered. Do they know how close he could be? It turns out he is closer then they thought and is in a family that is involved with the search.
Opening sequence: black screen as credits are revealed. There is a voice over of a girls muffled cries and screams. Cross cutting between shots of a young girl growing up and photos of her life at different stages.

In class I presented idea number 1 to the class as my favourite idea. The feed back from the class was generally very good. They liked the idea of cutting between the fragmented methods of media for example blurry black and white shots to the hands spelling out the credits. Putting lots of different types of effects and editing them will contrast well. They also liked the idea of the man behind the handheld camera.
