Script

In our thriller opening we have decided to use very little dialogue in order to achieve the most sinister and mysterious sequence possible; as a result we only have one piece of dialogue in the whole of our opening.

Hannah: 'Bye dad , love you' 

As a group we decided that this was best to create the eery atmosphere needed. Also through our audience reasearch we found that the audience don't like much to be given away in the intro of a thriller hence why we decided to have little dialouge. 

Soundtracks

Our aim is to have an eerie and suspenseful soundtrack to compliment our thriller opening; these are
a few i thought would accompany our piece well:

I looked up different music that were not copyrighted and although many were good i believe they did not completely fit the feel of music and the atmosphere we were looking for. As when we researched and people filled out our surveys music was a key aspect which was seen to be important, because of this we decided that it would be best to make our own soundtrack to fit our thriller opening best. 

As a result we produced this soundtrack:

Mood Board

This mood board allows us to visualise our thriller opening so we are able to see some key themes and images that will potentially be used in our opening to our thriller 'Unmasked'. 

Costume

At first we would like our protagonist to be well dressed, in formal but feminine wear. We decided this as it is part of her clean, "perfect" image. Another reason why we chose this, is because we thought it would help to highlight the contrast and transformation of her.





We also had ideas of a sort of slouchy, comfortable more scruffy look to show the contrast between her well dressed, polished look.

Location

Our locations would include:





A bathroom that includes a mirror so the protagonist is able to look in it, we would use one of our bathrooms at home and make it look messy, which again, highlights the contrast to the protagonist's clean, polished image. We will use mine and Lauren's bathrooms.





We will use a front door/doorway in two scenes. In one scene the door will be slightly ajar and in the other scene we will use the door so that the protagonist can walk through it.



We would also use an upstairs landing as a point to film from.



We would also use one of our staircases to film on.



Another possible location is a bedroom.
