2. Narrative Structure – Obsess  1) Equilibrium : a group of young,18 year old girls are going to a party all together to celebrate finishing for the
Christmas holidays. For that reason, the film will begin by showing viewers the girls getting ready, As the girls get ready,
the audience are made aware of someone who has been constantly trying to get in contact with Chloe (Tia). This
“stranger” is obsessed with Chloe and will not leave her alone. The audience see that Chloe is getting stressed with this
male character who we then find out is Ricky (Chloe's boyfriend) cousin. Ricky is unaware of his cousin’s obsession
with Chloe, and is also going to the party, however Chloe arrives with her friends, unaware that this stranger is following
her.
 2) Disruption of the Equilibrium: Chloe leaves the party so that she can call Ricky and when he does not answer his
phone she becomes worried and decides to leave him a voicemail questioning his whereabouts. The antagonist listens
to this phone call around the corner and as a result she decides to walk to his house, which is around the corner from
the house party, which she is presently at. On the journey to his house, she hears a noise down an ally way, which is
the antagonist. Unfortunately, the girl decides to walk down the ally way and the antagonist grabs her from behind and
as she screams he drags her into the back of his car.
 3) Recognition of the Disruption: As Ricky is walking to the party, he sees the car in which Chloe has been taken in.
Chloe’s face and hands are up against the window of the car screaming for help. Ricky recognises Chloe to some
extent but is not 100% sure it is her. Ricky starts to become paranoid and due to this he runs the rest of the way to the
party. Once, he finally arrives at the party frantically he questions all of Chloe’s best friends. They are unaware of Chloe
leaving and now all the group start to panic but Ricky states that he will go and find his girlfriend. He run’s to his cousin
(Michael) house to borrow his motorbike , when he sees nobody is in. Ricky knows where the spare key is and lets
himself in where he runs up to Michaels room to get the motorbike keys. This is where Ricky becomes aware of
Michaels obsession with Chloe with pictures placed all around his room of Chloe.
 4) An attempt to repair the damage: The pictures infuriate Ricky, so he grabs the motorbike keys from the side and
remembers a location where Michael loves to go (the woods) due to childhood memories he shared with his father who
recently passed away. Ricky drives there with no hesitation and sees Chloe and Michael by the pond, with Jessica and
Sarah holding Tia down to his surprise. Ricky sees that Michael has a gun in his hand. Ricky approaches them slowly
and questions what on earth is going on. Frightened Chloe is being held at gun point by Michael, without them knowing
and reaches to grab Chloe but Michael viciously pulls Chloe backs towards him. The group start arguing and Ricky
starts to talk to Michael about his father and how is father wouldn’t be proud of him doing this making Michael feel
guilty. In the end Michael feels guilty and gives in. Chloe is then handed back to Ricky where he takes her and protects
her from Sarah and Jessica. Michael then grabs the gun and runs off into the woods and commits suicide stating that
he wants to be with his dad. The police are then called to the scene where Sarah and Jessica are arrested for
attempted murder. Ricky and Chloe then go back to where they live and live happily again.

3. Type of shots in the trailer
 Establishing shot – Putney Bridge during the day, which will then progress into the night.
 On a number of occasions, close up shots will be used to convey characters emotions
and sudden actions. For example, close up shots of the girls applying their make up
(lipstick) in the mirror. In addition to this, close up shots of Ricky identifying his girl
friends kidnapper, as he discovers the wall of images depicting Chloe. Close up shot
where Chloe is at gun point – conveying her fear and emotions.
 Jump cuts will be used to heighten the disorientation for viewers and exaggerate the
thrilling aspect of scenes constantly changing – jump cuts will include scenes from the
opening section of out trailer (including the girls getting ready). In order to generate
suspicion and tension for viewers, this scene will jump to a scene of the girl being
dragged helplessly into the back of the man’s car. (This scene will be edited to appear
like CCTV footage).
 Other scenes in the trailer will incorporate fast motorbike scenes of Ricky trying to find
his missing girlfriend.

4.  As stated on the previous slide, our establishing
shot will depict a scene of the River Thames
during the day, which will then be edited to
progress quickly into the night. As shown in the
pictures displayed on this slide, these are the
type of scenes that will be used for our
establishing shot in our trailer. It is evident that
each image displayed above is taken during the
night and so the light that is present is
heightened to a great extent. The majority of our
film we be filmed during the night and so the light
that is present could reflect the girl’s need for
survival. Even though there is little light, there is
still light present and so there is hope to find the
girl – it is not complete darkness.

5. Key Characters and Casting
 The three best friends include Tia, Lydia and Ella. In the film there
character names are Chloe (Tia), Sarah (Lydia) and Jessica (Ella).
 Protagonist (Tia’s boyfriend – Male character) – Ricky

be the person that acts the antagonists scenes.

6. Style Inspiration - Genre
 We are following in the footsteps of the Taken film series, which respectively
conforms to an action thriller genre. For that reason, our trailer will
incorporate fast paced scenes such as the motorbike ride, in search for the
missing girl. Similarly to the Taken 3 trailer, our trailer will open picturing a
scene of the River Thames during the day, which will then be edited to
progress quickly into the night, using time lapse. Immediately, the dark
setting leads to the assumption of the unknown and therefore causes
immediate suspicion for viewers.
 Scenes depicting guns and motorbikes reflect an action genre. Hybrid –
action and thriller – both cause suspense and leave the audience on the
edge of their seats right the way through.
 Romance is also incorporated into the trailer and so our trailer offers a
variation of content, generating a wide target audience as a result.
 Friendship and love is also a key aspect of our trailer, in the desperate hunt
to find the missing girl.
 London will be shown as a vibrant city, due to the lights and parties depicted
in the house party and the motor bike scenes, conveying the city as busy
and consequently unforeseeable at the same time.
