After initial discussion between the group we have come up with our first narrative draft. Our daft follows... The film opens to see a person rushing to unlock a door with a key drawn from their pocket. They unlock the door and half close it behind them leaving it slightly ajar. They rush through the hall way into the kitchen and hurriedly wash their hands. They take a bag from the side and fill it with items pre placed on the side.
The shot switches to feet walking down the drive, the camera moving to the back of the head as they reach the door. The person looks left and right but not showing their face to the camera and push the ajar door open. They walk in to find no sign of the first person. They take out their phone and speak into it. "They're not here" The shot switches back to the first person who is now running, glancing all around as they run. They run around the corner and come face to face with the second person and the first person steps back in shock, eyes wide open.
The pros for our thriller film opening were that the audience will be able to understand the opening of the film. The budget will be quite low for our film as we will not be needing to buy high cost products. Also the location is not an issue as we are using one of our production member's house to film the opening.
The con is that it is difficult to achieve in 2 minutes.
