The document describes the process a group took to develop the opening of their thriller film project. They wanted to subvert expectations of typical thriller settings by using a pub, meant to seem warm and welcoming, and contrasting it with the cold, clinical kitchen. They aimed to reflect this warmth/cold contrast through the characters of the friendly victim and cold, clinical murderer. Flashbacks were included to establish their friendship but also throw its authenticity into question after the crime. An element of the supernatural was incorporated to leave questions unanswered and keep the audience engaged. A storyboard was created to plan scenes, music, and shots to guide the filming of the opening.
