A final summary of everything that our Thriller Opening Sequence will be composed of:
Opening Sequence Plot (what we will be filming):
The plot of our Thriller Opening Sequence follows what appears to be three teenaged delinquents breaking into a locked storage unit. Trying to be as quiet as possible, they begin scavenging throughout the container for anything that may make an effective weapon. However, upon one boy gaffer-taping a knife to some kind of pole a bit too loudly, the trio attract some unwanted attention from some kind of creature from outside the container. In a moment of heightened tension whilst the group are staring at the door, frozen in fear, the container suddenly starts getting thrown about. After the sudden tremor ends, the three teens scramble about whilst one gets out a map book. One of them says that they must move on if they wish to live, and they all agree.
The Actual Film Plot (what we will not be filming):
The rest of the plot would explore the survival of the three teens and whatever creature they are hunting/being hunted by. The ambiguity of the Opening Sequence attracts viewers and keeps them engaged as a result of their curiosity and desire to know more - and it also allows us to play with a lot of ideas should we ever make the movie in its entirety.
Cast:
Freddie Gass, James de Winton, Georgia Hehir.
Costume:
Dark, ‘common’ clothing. We want it to have a rather tacky, ‘chavvy’ look to it, but for it to still be effectively warm and comfortable.
Props:
Torches, duct-tapes, cargo netting, saws, gasoline canisters, nails, screws, pipes, knives, first-aid kit, barbed wire.
Location:
Cluttered storage container.
Set Design:
A lot of clutter at the edges of, and upon all the surfaces of, the set - with a single table in the centre and a chest of drawers at the back.
