The film starts with a teacher (played by Mr Henton) explaining that now his media class has done their research for their task they must now go out and actually complete their main task of filming their very own teen horror film.
We now cut to a shot of Fred (played by Me; John Power) looking into the camera with a blank look lacking any emotion. A slow heartbeat sound effect begins and Fred has visions of killing people, this shows he is not right in the head and also shows the ideas he has for his movie, real murders! As the heartbeat gets faster the visions get gradually more violent.
A point-of-view vision of Fred chasing a woman with a bloody knife, as he gets closer with the heartbeat now faster than ever.... A book is suddenly slammed down on the table (a fake scare). The book contains the words "Murder Studies" on the front of the book.
At the beginning there will be establishing shots of certain areas around the school, with eerie deep bass music to create a horror atmosphere. Titles will be included during this time apart from at the end when the film title is included.
During the close up of Fred, The other class members will be blurred out so the audience's point of focus will be completely on Fred. Also the background sound e.g. Classmates talking or other noises will be drowned out by the heartbeat, getting inside Fred's head.
From the 3 best ideas we picked out we decided to build on multiple ideas instead of just one for example we are using Robert's idea of having a normal day for students, We are using Man-Lok's idea of using a sinister figure or person in the opening having something eventful happening also.
This is just a basic idea at the moment but we will build on this in group discussions deciding on what shots to use and setting our ideas into stone. Some things might change but for the time being this is the opening that Twin Pine films has agreed on and will build on.
