Treatment
In the opening sequence of our thriller there is a girl sat in a dark dingy room with light coming from a laptop and a TV. There is a video camera plugged into the television and a video is playing. It is of a girl that the person who filmed it is stalking. There will be a variety of shots which will indicate to the audience what the girl sat in the dark room is doing and will create tension immediately portraying this girl as the evil character. To start with there will be a panning shot of the room gradually zooming in on a mid shot of the girls back and then an over the shoulder shot of the laptop. We will use a lot of close ups on the equipment that is around the room, including the camera and the laptop screen which will have the facebook of an innocent girl that the evil character is looking at. She is jealous and is finding out all that she can about her. The stalker girl is looking through the pictures and to start with there is eerie music playing in the background which suddenly stops and all you can hear is a mouse clicking. The camera then changes to a close up of the TV which has a camera plugged into it and on the screen is a girl in her garden picking up her rabbit; this is filmed from a bush. There is a flashback to when this was filmed. We see the girl picking the rabbit up and then hear a rustle in the bush. She suddenly turns around and there is a close up on her face, it then cuts to a close up of the bush. It then cuts back to the dark dingy room. To end our sequence the stalker will shut the laptop, walk over to the video camera, pick it up and turn and face the camera. The shot then switches to a close up of her face and she smiles.
In the room we are filming in there will only be light from the TV, laptop and maybe a small lamp. The room won't have anything in other than a laptop, TV, video camera, lamp and a seat that the girl is sitting on. There will be two characters in our sequence, the stalker and the girl being stalked. The first character that we see is the 'evil' one, we will show this by lots of weird behaviour, close ups of her and close ups of what she is doing. Our villain is a young woman who was abused by her parents and left on her own when she was young. Three years ago, when she was 15 she killed her parents because of what they did to her - she never got caught. She has grown to be a woman of no feelings and she is left mentally scarred by her past. She is ambiguous and seems that she would never harm a fly, but that is her external personality. Internally she is very childlike and doesn’t realize the extent of her actions when she harms or kills people. She doesn’t let anyone get close to her and all the people that once loved her are dead. She is a quiet person who doesn't socialize with the rest of the world; she sits in her dingy, dirty flat preying on her next victim. She wants to take someone else’s personality because she is tired of being her, lonely and disliked. We will represent her as isolated by showing the room being empty, this will connote how empty and lonely she is. Our other character is a girl who is also 18, her dad died in a car accident when she was 16 leaving her vulnerable as she has only her mother to protect her. Although her life is far from perfect she is a happy and pretty girl with a lot of friends. She is naive and childlike and doesn't realise that some people can be cruel. She is exactly what the stalker wants to be. We will represent her as childlike by dressing her in childlike clothes, barely any makeup and playing with her rabbit and talking to it. To represent her happiness, she will always be smiling and there will be lots of close ups of this. The narrative behind our opening sequence is to show that there is a girl who is lonely and sad who is stalking a girl who has completely the opposite personality. We see that she has been stalking her by the pictures she is saving onto her computer and the video she has of her following the girl.
The scene I have described links to the film Red Road in a way because at the start the women is clicking on all the different screens, watching everyone else in the city. Instead of watching everyone, our stalker is only watching one girl, but she is still clicking on the different screens, watching what she is doing. The film we are going to make will be an independent film because it is not the typical thriller including blood and gore and it is also not going to have any money being spent on it. We are showing the crime that can actually happen and how girls using websites to talk to people can actually get them in a lot of trouble and can get them in all sorts of problems and puts their lives at risk. Our thriller will include many conventions that a thriller film contains such as, ambiguous characters, strong key lighting from the laptop and lamp, shadows of the stalker on the wall and close ups and panning shots of the room. The opening scene will appeal to our audience because it will have young people in so that they can relate to our audience. Also the storyline will appeal to young people because they are using facebook everyday and some people may be in the same situation as these girls.
