Who
- 1. WH O By Holly Moran, Jade Potts, Liberty Carrington and Molly-Anne Noakes
- 2. The reason for our thriller opening sequence to be called ‘WHO?’ is because, the audience has a huge range of enigmas rising to the surface by the end of our sequence.
- 3. The Narrative From beginning to end, there are two couples, the main girl (the protagonist), her boyfriend, the antagonist and his girlfriend. They are all friends but we discover that the antagonist who is also the boyfriends best friend, has a psycho love for the protagonist. After a night out the protagonist is left alone with the antagonist in the car which leaves us to discover her walking alone in the morning injured and covered in blood...
- 4. Our Opening Sequence It begins with the main girl walking down the street in the morning covered in blood, weeping. This is when the enigmas start for the audience as we wonder where she has come from? Why she is in the state that she is? And what happened? Then the sequence goes back in time with flashbacks for the audience to get hints of reasons why she is covered in blood. Images and clips of the antagonist waiting to attack the protagonist from the night before.
- 5. Sub Genre Our opening sequence is a psychological thriller. What makes it a psychological thriller is because it plays upon the audiences mind and also there is emotional conflict between the two main characters, the antagonist and the protagonist.
- 6. Films That Inspired Us The films we were inspired by are: American Psycho, Black Swan and Prom Night. They are all psychological thrillers which are also based on love.
- 7. Locations Our locations that we are going to use will be a hang out spot which will possibly be a pub (The Trooper) or a alternative hang out. We will also be using Vansittart Road (this is where the protagonist will be walking the next morning).
- 8. Mise en Scene For the night before scenes we will be using ambient lighting so it’ll look very low key. Also, for the early morning scenes we will be using ambient lighting to look as natural as possible. As for make-up, we will only be using fake blood for the main girl to show she has been attacked. As for the other characters, there is no specific look we would need.
- 9. Mise en Scene Props Used The props we will be using will be: A necklace (belonging to the protagonist) A mobile phone (also protagonists) A car A form of weapon (broken beer bottle)
