OUR FILM COMPANY IS

CALLED CAPITAL CINEMA.

THIS IS THE COMPANY LOGO

WE CREATED:

PLOT – OPENING SCENE

• 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.

Continuing from the opening, the

rest of the film shall be the police

discovering the SD card and

figuring out the details about the

crime which the video didn’t reveal,

and to try and take down the gang.

OVERALL VISION OF OUR THRILLER

QUESTIONNAIRE RESULTS

From a 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.

We will be filming in a variety of locations

including:

Housing estate – Where the boyfriend and

girlfriend part ways.

Alley way – Where the gang are congregated.

Urban streets – Where the chase scene shall

take place, and where the girlfriend shall be

murdered.

LOCATIONS

COSTUMES

Gang members will 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.

THEMES

The themes of threat and pursuing shall

featured through out the opening scene,

as well as themes of death, investigation

and uncovering conspiracies.

TARGET AUDIENCE

Our film shall be certificate 12, as it

will include murder, moderate

violence and swearing.

GENRE CONVENTIONS

Our film shall include Thriller genre codes and conventions such as the

following:

• Good Vs. Evil

• Cat and Mouse Chase

• Death and theme of threat

• Guns

• Urban city setting

• Hidden identities

• Conspiracy theories
