Thriller Idea 2
After some serious thinking I have come up with another idea that our group could use for our thriller project. Below are the basic notes that the idea is based around:
Pans from the grey, cloudy sky to the girl slowly swinging on lonely swings in the rain.
Close-up of a photo frame she is holding in her hands (a gothic frame with the picture, black & white maybe -her and her mum/sister happy with the sun in the background) .
As the camera zooms into the picture, church bells ring in the background.
As the church bells ring, the scene goes back to when the photo was taken – so it looks like the girl on the swing is actually watching all of this happening, like a memory, but the church bells signify time passing and the past.
Camera goes back to the time the picture was taken & as it was taken. Family are all together having fun.
They start playing badminton together laughing as someone falls over (camera looks down on them, significant as this is later the victim).
They depart and the victim is left to walk home on their own down an empty country lane.
Camera then does a long shot to look at the victim – emphasizing that someone is watching/following.
Mid-shot of shadow of person following.
Mid-shot of victim as they turn around to see who is behind them, then close-up of their facial expressions of shock and fear.
Close-up of their feet as they try to run away (and stalkers feet following), diegetic sound of footprints running behind and then a scream from the victim. No graphic view of what happens to the victim – increases suspense and fear in the viewer.
Church bells ring again and the scene goes back to the girl on the swing, crying now in memory of the event (church bells act as a sound bridge on numerous occasions).
She is wearing red and black, symbolises anger (red) and mourning and grief (black).
Gets off of the swing with tears in her eyes.
Camera follows her from behind as she passes a tree with a wanted poster on – suspect for murder of the person. Camera pans round once girl has walked away and focuses on the wanted poster.
Straight cut to the eyes of the suspect on the poster.
Fades into the determined eyes of the girl as she picks up a mysterious bag from the side and goes off for revenge.
Title of the film fades onto the screen (‘R3V3NG3’) in place of where the girls’ and suspects eyes were.
Now I have thought of this idea, I will now discuss this with the rest of my group and any other ideas they may have thought of too.
