2. Brief Synopsis A jobless, young teen, Will Block is sitting in his room with an empty wallet and nothing to do. He then sees another young adult who is on her way back from work, grabs his skateboard and begins to stalk her. He watches her every move as she uses a nearby ATM machine. As she goes home later that day, Will follows her into a deserted subway in a rundown area and grabs her bag which has her credit card, mobile phone and money. An obsession therefore begins for the youth as the next day he spots a new target and begins stalking her. What he doesn’t realise, however, is that the girl is ready to fight back.

3. Characters Will Block (played by Tom Block) – 17 year old college student, a stereotypical view of a teenager, looking for a way to make money. He is a keen skateboarder and has obsessive behaviour. He therefore begins to prey on young women because he thinks that they will be an easy target. Eve White (played by Emily King) – 17 year old college student on her way from a part time job in a clothes shop in the city. She is vulnerable, young and innocent. She is a traditional representation of a female victim in some thriller films. Scarlet Fraser (played by Jenna Bolingbroke) – 18 years old, intelligent and cunning. She lives alone and only has a few close friends. She is physically and emotionally strong. She is a femme fatale which is a common character in the Thriller genre and can be compared to Lisbeth Salander from ‘The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo’.

4. Locations Our Thriller will be based in Norwich City centre as a typical location as it is a usually busy place but still a place where many crimes are committed. It also was easily accessible for the cast. Will Block’s Bedroom – We will use this location as a way to show more of Will’s personality and background. It is a typical teenager's bedroom and demonstrates the reasons behind his actions. ATM Machine – We are going to use an ATM to create a reason for the crime to occur. There is a lot of suspicion and paranoia about identity theft surrounding ATM machines, and so the audience may be able to relate to this as it’s a frequent occurrence in society and a common phobia. Subway – We are using this location due to the generic thriller aspects that it provides such as dark, non ambient lighting, the sense of isolation and claustrophobia.

5. Costumes Will Block – Dark, blue hoodydenim baggy jeans and Vans trainers. Eve White – Skinny jeans, black leather jacket, red scarf and red gloves. Scarlet Fraser – Dark, navy skinny jeans, black leather jacket, white jumper with the hood up, leather boots and dark nail varnish. Eve White’s costume is typical of the sort of clothing that girls of this age group wears in 2011. Will Block’s costume derives from the skateboarder fashion of teenage boys. Our target audience (16-24 year olds) can relate to these costumes as they are normal styles. However, Scarlet Fraser’s costume is less mainstream therefore challenging popular fashion. It is intimidating to support her ‘loner’ personality.
