Three girls surviving in a post-apocalyptic world lure a soldier into the woods to gain an advantage over the authorities. They chase him deep into the forest where the other two girls are waiting to trap him in a net. Though he shoots one of the girls, they overpower him and take his radio and tracking device. The opening scene would be filmed at a paintball site, modifying the setting to appear more run down and post-apocalyptic.
2. Outline of the whole film
• The film is set in the future, in a post-apocalyptic world,
there have been mass killings and few have survived. The
world is being run by an army. A few groups have survived
but soldiers are trying to kill anyone left. The movie follows
a group of girls on their attempt at survival, trying to
defeat the soldiers who want them dead.
3. Outline of the idea
•Three surviving girls from the
apocalypse attempt to overpower the
authorities by luring a guard into the
woods and manipulating him so they
can get his radio, and gain an advantage.
4. Scene outline
• Man strolling back to his cabin/camp type thing, he lights a cigar
• we see the camp area is destroyed, there are burned busses, rubbish,
food cans, plastic bags-it needs to look destroyed and derelict
• We see someone rummaging around in his cabin.
• we see a muddy dusty girl getting supplies from his cabin, she's
stealing his food and stuffing her face with any food she can find. In
the cabin there is a bed-maybe a mat on the floor with blankets.
• he walks into the cabin and a shouts something like "hey" or 'oi'
• she sees him and runs the other way, maybe jumping out a window
or a back door.

7. Scene outline
• he fires his gun and grazes her arm, she grunts or screams
• she starts running for her life, out of the camp area and into the woods
• we see their chase, it's a real struggle, she is panting and clearly distressed,
the man could be smiling, taunting her as if he's enjoying it.
• they're getting deeper into the woods, more trees are getting in the way,
emphasizing the struggle. There could be dead bodies lying around the
forest.
• we see that there are other girls waiting in the woods, also looking muddy,
malnourished

9. Scene outline
• they use a net on a rope to trap the man, he's fighting back, he shoots
one of the girls but they continue to beat him.
• he's obviously weakened, nearly dying
• they take him out the net and start to tie and pin him to a tree with
the weapons and ropes they had made/collected to prepare
• They take his radio, maybe remove tracking device and step on it
• Soundtrack starts, aerial shot zooming out of them and to the woods
10. Location
• The location is based in a forest and a cabin, possibly on the outskirts
of the forest. These are the only two locations involved in the opening
scene.
11. We think delta force paintball site would be a good location
to film our opening sequence at, we would need to add to
the mis-en-scene with litter to make it appear more post
apocalyptic.

13. Characters
• There are 4 characters, three girls and one man.
• We will also need a few actors to be the dead bodies in the woods,
unless there is a way of using mannequins or something.
• The man is the villain- he’ll be a soldier or a guard.
• There will be one girl that initiates the chase, she was the one
rummaging around the cabin.
• The two other girls will be the ones helping to catch the man. (One of
them gets shot when the man gets trapped in the net. The other one
takes the radio and removes the tracking device.)
