My Idea for a Thriller Film
Aliysa Khawaja
As a group we have been told to come up with a few ideas for an opening sequence for a thriller film. My idea for our group work is about a woman and her four children, the woman is a single mother as her and her husband got divorced. The children never get to see their father as the mother doesn’t permit them to because of her past with him, therefore none of the children know who he is and they do not remember him as they were all too young when he left.
Then one day, one of the children goes missing and is nowhere to be found. The police are informed and they search for the child however they do not find her. No one knows whether the child is dead or alive. The mother thinks of everywhere her child could have gone however she has no luck in finding her. Then another one of her children goes missing, this time it’s her youngest son. The police get involved again however this time they start suspecting it’s the mother who has done something to her children. They suspect it’s her because of the stress of being a single mother with four children. Her other two children are then taken away from her by the social services and kept away just incase she had anything to do with these kidnappings.
The mother is then held in custody whilst the police try and find more evidence. She is no longer allowed to see her remaining two children. The mother tries to convince the police it wasn’t her however they have strong suspicion that it was her who had something to do with this.
The police in the end solve the mystery to find out it was the father of the children who had kidnapped the two children as he wanted them to be his but he knew that really the mother would not let him see them therefore he felt kidnapping them would be the best way of keeping his children. The children are the reunited with their mother and the father is sent to prison.
I think this would be a good idea for a thriller film as it is a mystery and it would keep the audience on their toes because they would be so keen to find out who kidnapped the children and where they were the whole time. Also this film would be interesting and attention grabbing.
These are pictures of the Graveyard and room we are going to use for our AS Media Opening Titles sequence. This First photo is of the Mens toilet which we are using for the little boys sactuary. the place he runs too to feel safe. In our Opening we are not going to shot with the toilet in the shot we are going to face the other way and pretend it is jsut a room. i will take another picture of the layout we use during filming.
This also appear later in the 'Movie' so we chose to shoot here.
was initionally where we wanted to record. but becasue i was trying to recall it from memory i didnt not relise this toilet was so small andwould not be able to fit a camera and tripod, cameraman, actors, and director and producer in. So that is why the Men's is more sutiable (first picture) and also the viewer will also no know it is a toilet.
