Idea's for Our Thriller

Idea 1: Opens with a girl rocking back and forth holding her knees, crying in a darkly lit room, looking into a cracked mirror with a small stream of light shinning on one side of her face, making shadows on the other side. Or the mirror crack in half separating her reflection into two parts.
The camera would zoom into focus on her eye for an extreme close up.
Next shot would be a graphic match where the camera fades from the same girls eye to a flash back to a sun into a happy memory of her past.
Camera follows her having fun and having a laugh.

Idea 2: A person is found lying on the floor disorientated and unconscious.
People try to help them but they don't see another person hiding in the shadows round the corner.
The camera in a high angle shot looks down at the person lying down on the floor, then sweeps from their feet to their head.
Fade in the person round the corner, seems as they are standing above them looking down at camera (low angle shot here)
Zoom in to the strangers mouth as they smile and laugh, all other features are hidden by the shadows (chiaroscuro)
Camera spins around the victims as if it symbolizes their world turning upside down
This could then have a graphic match to earlier on in the story where the victim wakes up to a fresh new day all happy and cheerful, not knowing what is darkness is around the corner.

Idea 3: Girl walking along ... see's shadows, turns round, nothing there. Turns again, see's a dead girl standing there looking as if she has just drowned. Screams and runs around the corner. Point of views are used for when running away. At the end, everything goes black, and all you hear is the scream of the girl.

I have spoke to my group members today about this and I believe we will probably use idea 3!

I will put more about this idea up next week!
