  PLOT – OPENINGSCENE • A boyfriend and girlfriend will be established, whilst cross cutting to a gang of two members. • The girlfriend leaves, and is about to turn a corner when she overhears a gang of two members (whose identities are hidden) talking about a widespread crime. • Girl realises the importance of what she is hearing and films it on her mobile phone. • The gang hear the sound of her phone going off. • The gang chase the girl through an urban area. • The girlfriend thinks she has escaped, and removes the SD card from her phone containing the video. This shot is made tense by including close ups of her face to show her emotions, and a hand held camera shall be used to show her jerky, panicked actions. • The audience hear a gun shot but do not see the bullet colliding with the girl’s body. The violence of the gun wound is not shown. • The camera then pans onto the girlfriend who they discover is the one who got shot. She has her phone in one hand and the SD card in her other hand hidden from view. • The gang approach her body and take the phone out of her hand and break it. They believe they are safe. • The final shot shall be of the girl’s hand slightly revealing the SD card still in her hand – it is safe. The audience hear the sound of sirens in the background indicating the police are on the way and the SD card shall be found. The audience do not see the police, they only hear the sound of approaching sirens showing police are actually coming. The girl did not die in vain.

  QUESTIONNAIRE RESULTS Froma questionnaire we created we have found out that Thriller films are most popular with males, who go to see Thrillers in the cinema mainly with their friends. The audience shall expect to see the villain wearing black clothing, and the score of the film to have a tense tone. The film is also expected to be set in an urban city location. We shall use our questionnaire results to aim our film at a male audience. We shall ensure the villain is shown in black clothing and the location shall be an urban setting. Furthermore, the score originally composed for the film shall be tense.

  COSTUMES Gang memberswill be wearing black jeans, hoodies and boots because black is a Thriller code and convention for representing the villain/evil. The hoodie shall conceal the villains identities which creates a sense of mystery and intrigue. Hiding the gangs identities helps make the gang appear convincing to the audience as the actors playing them are actually teenage girls. The Boyfriend and Girlfriend shall be wearing mundane clothes, such as light coloured tops to signify good and innocence. This shall show them to be the heroes of the opening scene.
