Individual Initial Idea

After being given our brief, we were told to go off individually and come up with some ideas which could then be put forward to the group - taking our group idea from those. The group decided that we'd focus around the horror/thriller genre but this could vary if needed.


Initial Idea 1:


My first idea was based around a paedophile. I wanted the film to be about a man who stalks a young girl - this could be portrayed through him having pictures of her, following her online through social networks and also watching her from a distance as she goes about her life. The opening sequence could be of the man watching the girl from the school gates as she is picked up by her mother. The sequence would be made up of long shots of the girl and the playground and also close ups of the paedophiles face to build up his character.




Initial Idea 2:


My second idea was of a rapist story. I thought that the opening sequence of our film could be of a man as he followed a young woman on her way home at night. The girl would be very drunk and unaware that she was being followed and at the end of the sequence, the man would make his move - this insinuating that he'd raped her. The rest of the film would be about the girl as she came to terms with the rape experience and tried to get over this emotional experience.
