The Final Ideas for the Film

We have changed the idea of what we want within the 2 minute clip. We wanted to go with a less conventional idea, so we decided to shorten the amount of characters within the clip and not the 5 characters you would have in the film. This is because in the first couple of minutes in a film often you see all the main characters you are going to see for the rest of the movie. Like within Final Destination, the first few minutes you see all the characters, as seen in this video:

Also within the first scenes of a horror film, there can be a death or there can be a scene where they set up for a death later on within the film. After watching scream and the ring, we decided that we preferred the way scream opened their film, as the first scenes of the film, there is two murder’s which sets the feel for the film. Also the Ring had a death within the first scene, it took a little longer to happen but it was relatively early in the film, which we liked and thought was a conventional, which we wanted to incorporate within the film as we needed some conventions in the film.

So our new idea for the film is to have a crowbar in the shot, with dripping blood from the end of it and a hard reaching out to try and grab it. Then a shot of the victim on the floor, giving up, then it goes back to the crowbar and you see it go down a strike the victim. Then the film ends abruptly and that’s the clip over and finished.  This is a brief over view of the film, there is more detail than this, but in a few sentences this is what happens.

We decided to have no dialog in the film and a brief shot of the killer, we wanted to create suspense and mystery, so the audience don’t know what happened and if they saw the clip, they would want to see the rest of the film.
