THRILLER OPENING

2. DESCRIPTION OF STORYLINE
• The idea for our thriller is to show a planning of a killing.
• We want to base our whole trhiller opening around the number 6 as
this is the 'devils number' so this will be effective for the genre.
• To do this we want to show a woman who is having a completely
normal day however as the audience we will see visual clues to do
with the number 6 so we know something bad is about to happen
but she does not.
• We will be showing quick flashes of 5 other killings that have already
happened and the 6th one will not have happened yet to link back to
the idea of highlighting the number 6.
• We will not be showing the killing of the 6th woman as this would be
what would happen in the rest of the film and not in the opening.

5. LOCATION, COSTUME, EQUIPMENT
We decided to use Aarons house for our location as he lives opposite a
forest so it fits in perfectly with the genre therefore we could use this for
scenic shots. We will be using the Kitchen, Bathroom, Living room, Hallway
and front of house.
Our Thriller is set in the 21st century therefore the characters costumes will
very modern and trendy.
Alyesha is a business women who has just come home from a busy day at
work so she will be wearing formal clothing (shirt, blazer, skirt)
Most of the equipment needed will be provided by the school (tripod) and
we will be using Omar's Canon camera to film our opening as we wanted it
to look more professional.
