Storyline (Group idea - Typed up by Thea and Jodie)

Here is the basic outline to our 2 minute clip inrtoducing our psychological thriller movie.

It starts with a pitch black screen with the diagetic noise of footsteps at a very fast pace to display they are running. Then there are snapshots of body parts, very close up to give the impression they are Crime scene investigation photos.It will be unclear to the viewer what is being photographed until there is a long shot of the body. whilst this is going on, there will be a diagetic sound of a heart beat made through the base and drum beats to display the panic of this person as their pace will also quicken.

Then there will also be non-diagetic sound of a telephone conversation going on between a dog walker and emergency services. The dog walker will be the character that discovers the dead female in the photos. suddenly as the music and the pictures come to a climax the title will appear on a black screen and the title will be white and fuzzy but will then come into focus.

This will cut to a close up of the main male characters (protagonist) eyes with a paniced look. This will then zoom out slightly to focus on his face accompanied by heavy breathing and there will be sweat dripping off his forehead. There will then be a shot that will display this guy running. There will then be a point of view shot of the protagonist looking at his hand and he will notice a spot of blood/mud on his hand. He runs into a female character walking down the street and the camera switches to mid-two shot and the camera displays her reaction of annoyance and confusion to him. She then continues her journery down the road.

The protagonist then runs into the toilet and there is a match on action of his entrance into this toilet. As he enters the toilet there will be a high angle shot looking at him frantically rushhing towards the sinks still looking at his hands. This then goes to a point of view shot of him looking at his hands whilst standing near the sink the amount of blood/mud has greatly increased and it is now completely covering his hands. The protagonist then starts to frantically wash his hands in the sink but it seems none of it is coming off.

The camera then changes to a mid shot including male character B, who has just walked into the toilet, the audience then realises that there is nothing on the protagonists hands and that it is all in his mind. Then male character B, questions if the protagonist is okay, as he is still frantically washing his hands. He is frightened by the ecentric behaviiour and walks out.

The camera then switches a point of view shot of the protagonist looking at his hands and then he looks up to the mirror and the music has come to a climax and that audience see in the mirror relection the blood is all over his face, man starts to scream but the shot finishs halfway though as it cuts to black.

Post comments about the idea or questions if confusion occurs (this is most likely)
