Everyone gave a presentation on there idea for a Thriller through showing a powerpoint presentation. We then all had to vote on which one we liked the most and we thought would really work.
This was my prensentation of my idea:
First story line:
- A man awaiting his death.
- Getting ready (breakfast, shower, writing a letter, passing his cell.).
- Walking towards his death.
- Being hung.
Second story line:
- A teenage girl.
- Knocking on a door franticly, crying, screaming etc.
- Silence other then her screaming.
- She gives up knocking (when he is hung).
- Slams her back to the door and slides down.
Locations:
- A hall with a door (old looking door).
- A cell (white room).
- A corridor (looking like a prison corridor).
How does my idea create tension?
- By switching from the man walking to his death, then to the girl screaming at this door. Making the audience try and work out why he is being killed and if the girl is maybe trying to save him and if so will she save him?
- Go in between those two shots really quickly.
- Having eerie music in the background gradually building and building until it stops instantly and you just hear the rope being tugged.
Props, casting
- A man (25-40).
- A teenage girl.
- Chains/Handcuffs.
- A bed for the prison cell.
Why do I think my idea will work?
- It is not too complicated.
- There are only 3 location (the cell, the door and the corridor).
- I think it would build tension really well, with all the questions the audience will ask themselves.
- It’s original.
- It has something which people care about in life (the death penalty) that people could relate to.
