The document outlines ideas for a horror thriller film set in the woods at an abandoned house or field in the evening. It will follow someone being followed and include a murder with the protagonist hiding from something or someone. The antagonist will be represented as shady and suspicious while the protagonist is weak, vulnerable, and nervous. Sound design and camera shots like close-ups, establishing shots, and tilt shots are discussed to build tension and suspense through unsettling music, snapping twigs, and characters' expressions.

shallow focus

o Mid-shot– Show expression of the character that is targeted
o Low angle – low angle on the antagonistto show the power of the
character
o Tilt shot – looking at a footpath, protagonistwalks pastcamera
looking behind as he does so – shows thenervousness of the
character
o Ellipsis – antagonistwalks towards camera fromlong distance,
cuts to not far away fromthe camera, then cuts to the character
walking past the character – shortens time
