ElementsActors, We will have two actors in our opening the first actor will be a female in distress (Aged 19-25) who is either kidnapped or killed, and the next actor will be a male character who will be looking through photos. In some scenes they will be together in a flashback which will appear black and white in the final cut.
- 3. Props we will use is a Polaroid type photos, these are useful seen as we can use our credits on the white part of the photo. Other props that would be laying around the office is folders which are scattered all over the place which could show his unorganised lifestyle but could also portray his state of mind as an all over the place character.

- 14. The opening appears to be a flashbackSoul – We chose this title due to the recurring theme of supernatural and horror and therefore we thought having this title played along the lines of the opening.Behind The Lens - We thought this title would be affective as in the opening we are introduced of the protagonist flicking through images of his victim and all the flashbacks he’s seeing is captured within the openingLove Hurts - This title could help establish the theme of both romance and super natural thriller allowing the audience to conclude from the opening sequence that there are various plots and twists in the movie that could be included in the rest of the movie Never Lasting – This title leaves a dramatic impact on the audience as it could question what will happen within the rest of the movie, furthermore it reinforces the themes we achieve to create.Reflect - With the opening sequence having a scene of the woman appearing in the mirror we concluded that this title will attract the whole sense of reflecting with what the protagonist has done.As a group we have not yet decided what title we want to choose. Our final decision and why we had chosen the certain title can be found as an update on the blog.Title Of Movie
