The film starts with the woman who has been captured, tied to a chair in a derelict room. Her mouth duct taped and she is surrounded by burnt and trashed items. There is writing on the wall in blood that reads 'ONE DOWN'. This is a close up that then zooms out, to give a more full picture. IT will be low-key lighting if it is sustainable at this location. The props used here are a chair, rope and duct tape. There will be no change from normality with the make-up and costume, as the idea is that she has been kidnapped straight from getting ready for a night out.
The villain then enters the room, and slowly strokes her face, and speaks to her in a gentle, slightly psychotic voice. He makes it apparent that he has been clearly chasing her for some time. The villain then proceeds out of the room, to look at a board of past victims. Each of which have their pictures on a board, with crosses either on them or next to them. he then pulls a lighter from his pocket, and burns the picture of the current victim. Again there will be low key lighting as the lighter will then create a contrast when the flame lit picture is present. Props used will be pictures and a lighter.
With the captor unaware, the victim escapes the ropes she is tied to the chair with, and quietly leaves the premises and immediately proceeds to run into the forest. The villain then returns from burning the photo, and finds the chair empty and that she has escaped. The victim runs throughtout the forest, screaming for help to anyone that can hear. She then stops, out of breath and energy to continue, she hears something behind her and slowly turns her head. We see the villain standing closely behind her, as the screen then blacks out and a loud shriek can be heard. There will be high key lighting here, but the cloud coverage will hopefully make the scene darker, and more distressing.
This shows a very basic understanding of what an opening scene narration is and this is because you have not considered the whole of your narrative or your storyboards.
