Individual Narrative

                                                                   Main Narrative

A woman is tied up in an old deserted place, and is seen to be trying to wriggle out. She escapes the unknown captor and proceeds to run through the woods to get away. The menace chases her, and after a while hunts her down. Leaving an unexplained mystery as to why she has been killed, and what got her in this position.

We leave the scene with the killer walking away from the body, lying on the ground, but with a possession of hers in his hand, her pendant. The body is left on the fringe of the forest, where it can be easily found, but this appears to not matter.

Title: The Resilient

Conventions

Masked Menace: The antagonist will be masked and and unidentifiable but the use of the mask and possibly a weapon will show the difference in power.

Low Angle's: Low angle shots will be used especially when the victim is tied up, and killed, it needs to be shown that the antagonist holds more power than her, and that the audience is seeing it from her point of view, and may only see the killer's knees and below to keep him unidentifiable.

Element of Suspense: The audience will be in suspense throughout the opening as they may feel uneasy watching the terror this woman is going through. The death will be hidden as to help leave some of it to the audiences imagination, yet hints will be given as to what did take place once the victim has been caught.

Low Key Lighting: Low key lighting will be used when in the forest, and also in the deserted place that she is being held captive. This will help create an area of tension and helplessness.

Representation of Characters

Having only 2 characters helps the suspense of the film, as the victim appears to be so isolated, and have no one around to help as she tries to flee her captor.

The antagonist is killing the woman because he is obsessed with her, but she insulted him by telling him he was a freak for stalking her, and that her boyfriend would kill him. His theory is that if he cant have him, then no one can.

  1. You have made a start in describing your idea for a thriller film. You have included your plot and your characters, but these two points need to be explained in a lot more detail
