Continuity Video and Group Thriller Idea

Group Thriller Idea: 

Group: Alice Denmark, Abigail Fish, Sophie Jarvis, Becky Wade 


We all liked Abigail's idea of the figure stalking the protagonists life and have decided to do that for our thriller opening: 

We see brief snippets of the daily routine of the protagonist. Getting up and opening the curtains in the morning. Leaving the house to catch the bus. The bus journey to work/college. During each snippet of each part of the routine, we see a figure in the background, apparently watching the protagonist. The figure is never seen clearly, and is stood off-centre in each shot. The music is quiet, and eerily ambient. A short voice over by the protagonist declares that for some time they have been watched. They never felt threatened, intimidated, or scared – just that they were being observed. The protagonist says that for a while they thought their observer was like a guardian angel, perhaps. We then see a shot of the protagonist’s front door. The voice over changes tone and they say that now things have changed, and they don’t feel safe. Through the frosted glass of the front door, we see the blurred silhouette of the observer. They raise a hand, and scrawl a message on the glass backwards. They rest their hand on the glass, and the sequence ends.

  1. A good synopsis. Can you make any comparisons to existing films as influence?
