The document discusses and compares two potential horror film openings - one involving a woman running through the woods who discovers a creepy cabin ("Cabin") and the other involving a woman in her house who becomes possessed ("Possession"). It provides details on the plot, casting, length, target audiences, inspirations, shots, sound, lighting, resources needed, and logos for the potential film distributor for both ideas.

Sam, Danny and LukeNeither name is set in stone but these are the most likely names so far
Casting: Cabin; Amy-louise Chandler- running girl Robert Allen– antagonist Possession; …………-The wife that gets possessed Sam Allen-Husband sleeping Length: 1 hour 47
 Girl running through a forest to keep fit, just a nice gentle jog. As she is running she is oblivious to creepy happenings going on around her. Then she comes across a cabin and a whole manner of things happen.  A young lady alone in her house, as she is walking around she comes across a shadow and becomes possessed…. The long and the short of it she kills her husband but you don’t see that in the start, you just see her flickering in the door way of his room.
Both of the ideas are pitched to the same audiences Ages: 15-25; young adults and couples. Gender: possibly both genders however leaning towards males because of the sex appeal of the women in either opening, but both sexes may come as the ideas would be the perfect movies for a first date. Economic state: To everyone really because it wouldn’t be a massive production, but it would still be appealing to the more wealthy audience. Interest: Intelligent people because the storyline is complex. Job: Maybe a boring tedious job so they can escape to the false reality of a thriller.
‘Nightmare on elm street’ for the irony of the music. ‘Shrooms’ because of the setting in the forest. ‘Scary movie 4’ for the oblivious young women at the start. ‘Insidious’ for concept contribution
Birds eye view shot- To establish the setting of the place where the girl is running. Low angle shot- To show how the girl coming over a horizon. High angle shot- To give the effect of the nooses swinging in the wind as she runs past them. Wide shot- To show exactly where the girl is running at the same time as watching her run through it. Medium shot- To give the expression of the girl yet also show some of the scene. Extreme close up- The close up on a certain feature of a character/object to give a distorted image. Close up- To show the raw emotion on a characters face or to establish a symbol of an object. Two shot- To show a show of both characters. Over the shoulder shot- To make the audience feel as if they are in the scene with the characters. Point of view shot- To convey the scene through the eyes of the character.
Low angle shot- between the woman's legs as a view of the kitchen. Two shot- when the characters are coversing. Close up- of the woman’s face as she is possessed. Extreme close up- to watch the eye roll back into her head. Medium shot- to show the scene yet still show the expression of the characters face. Long shot- of the woman (before the blackout) beginning to crawl through the corridor. Over the shoulder shot- along with the panning of the camera over the sofa to establish the scene of a house. Wide shot- To establish the end part where the women is in the doorway of her room.
 Cabin Runners track- Anything could happen: Ellie Goulding. When the mysterious things start happening a deep guitar sound is made.  Possession The natural sound from the TV, the footsteps of the women, the glasses smashing, snarling from the women, a TV report playing in the background. As you can see the sound is very different in each idea; this is because we wanted to try out 2 complete different styles before we pick our favourite and most effective. Cabin features mostly non-diegetic sound of the contrapuntal music with a few scenes with diegetic breathing. Whereas Possession is more naturalistic with the diegetic sounds that would usually go on in this kind of scene in place, until the non-diegetic sound at the end of the opening.
 Cabin Natural lighting from the forest. Antagonist sees the women in dampened colours.  Possession The lighting will be low key with the key lights giving the majority of the light to the scene (in the front room the TV is the key light, in the hall way the kitchen is the key light, in the bedroom the hallway is the key light). Same as the sound the lighting is totally contrasted in the ideas. Cabin has very natural lighting from the forest; which adds to the irony of the opening. However in Possession the lighting is very low key and dim to allow us to develop the tension through the scene easier.
 Cabin Woodland A good camera with the tripod Thick rope tied into nooses A big axe A good looking female A cabin in the woods  Possession House Young lady Glass Male in bed Again with the naturalistic theme of possession we don’t need as many resources.
 Cabin A forest (Frylands wood campsite. Because it is an isolated forest which is full of creepy trees. To set the tension at a high from the very first scene of the opening.  Possession A normal suburban house, this will lead the target audience in a false sense of security about the thriller movie; contrapuntal scenery if you wish.
Both ideas are hybrid genres between thriller and horror. Mise-en-scene: For cabin this is going to be simple as the forest already holds all the common scenery within it; except for the axe and nooses. With Possession we just need the stereotypical red wine glasses and a couple to create the mise-en-scene. Setting: (explained earlier in the presentation) Themes: Both ideas have the same themes of a women becoming in terror. Iconography: For Cabin the iconography would be the axe, nooses and the cabin as they are symbols of the rest of the films. However in Possession there are no symbols established for the rest of the film. Sound and music: (explained earlier in the presentation)
All three of us are going to create a distributer logo and then collaborate to decide which one is the best suited for the genre and the opening. Ideas  Deadshot studios  Smash hit productions  Grim productions
 Cabin The runner: A good looking young blonde, blue eyed girl, typical teenager running through the local woods to keep fit. The antagonist: A massive paw of a hand is all that is seen. By the looks of it the antagonist has been living in the forest for quite some time.  Possession The women: A good looking female with a ring on her finger to symbolise marriage, just having a casual night in with her man.
