Research for Our Idea

Research for our Thriller idea consists mainly of pictures of the type of thing we want in our set and in our final peice as well.

We want our thriller to begin quite naturally, just a brick wall being built buy some (preferably female) hands and this is what we want it to look like in the end.

Throughout the building of this wall, there will be a voice over that builds up the tension of the scene, as it grows louder and faster saying; 'Good fences make good neighbours' a quote from a poem by Robert Frost that we feel will help to get out message across to the audience.

Once the voice over is as loud and fast as possible an extreme close up of the girl's eyes will show them flying open, looking terrified as though she had been woken from a terrible dream.

This shot will go into a soft focus and the exposure will increase into a fade out that leads to the next scene which will be an establishing long shot from a low angle of a corridor dimly lit and with many doors on each side of it, like this; minus the low angle.

The next shot will be of the corridor from the girl's P.O.V as she walks down the corridor, where a bright shaft of light is shining from.

Eventually she comes to a door and opens it, the shot is just of her left profile though so that the audience cannot see what she sees, only her reaction. This will happen in a montage of sorts with many different doors being opened and the same thing happening.

Until finally she reaches the last door at the dead end of the corridor, which she opens and there in front of her is the wall that she built with her own hands, whether metaphorically or literally. Throughout the whole sequence, the credits will be rolling and after revealing the last shot of the girl, as she is strapped to an all-white bed in an all-white room, the title will roll up in smoke on the brick wall. Leaving that as the final shot.
