For my horror opening clip id like to do something unique, i was thinking of having the whole scene in black and white or purposely a little bit shallow in quality. This is to give it a more olden response and make the audience feel uncomfortable but intrigued at the same time? I have a specific storyline idea in mind, teenage girl home alone while parents have gone away for the weekend, she is in the comfort of her own home and is tuned into the radio while making dinner for herself in the kitchen-maybe using a sharp metal knife to cut up vegetables? (a disaster waiting to happen) anyway as she's walking around maybe humming a song to herself. Meanwhile the description of a missing girl is loudly being announced on the radio "dark hair,dark eyed teenager went missing from her home in Northwest London last Tuesday, police and detectives are hard at work and DNA results from her house have show signs of a abduction but with no false entry?.."
half way through the radio she starts to listen in and takes a good look in the mirror in the similarities of her and the description of the girl even down to the detail of area and then BOOM! a figure standing behind her in a black cape with only bloodshot eyes in her view, she sees this in her reflection and gasps but when she slowly turns around there is no one there! is it just paranoia? when she walks back into the kitchen in her pyjamas he is standing in front of her with the kitchen knife in his hand...
Introduce the makers with a plain and simple black background with red bold writing to meet up with the audiences expectations of red and black being fearful and hated colours. Noises of radio breaking up signal and a long scream in the end that lasts up to 5 seconds?

  2. It really caught my eye! I really like the idea! The only thing I would say is when you finalise your Idea, give more details about the shots you are planning to use! Looking forward to see it when it's finished :)))

  3. An intriguing idea. Is it set in the past? Why make it old-fashioned and why the cape? Consider how your film will be different than stereotypes associated with the horror genre.
