When noting our idea's for our thriller opening sequence, we made a spider diagram of our basic idea's and then bullet pointed them. We decided that our main character Jamal would be walking through a park and comes across a friends dead body.
We then said that he would then pick up note left in the victims hand that said something creepy and bizzarre like 'your next.'
We would then see Jamal becoming panicked as he would then have a note similar to the victims.
Groups of people dressed in all white would then appear around the park, seen as distant and creepy (just like the note.)
However we decided to then scrap that idea when we had spoken to our teacher, as it was a bit random and didn't really have any relevance to our actual story.
We also decided on getting a lot of location shots to create a really eerie atmopshere, seeming as though Jamal was alone and deserted in this park.
Our group also talked about using some flashbacks in our opening sequence, to set up the first few minutes of our story better.
These will possibly include a few seconds of the victim getting ready the night before, to try and build up tension as to how she died and why.
We were also told beforehand that we were not aloud to shoot in alleyways, and our actors were not allowed to wear hoodies.
In our spider diagram we also addressed what props we would be using, and where we would purchase these props etc.
