Health and Safety considerations:

Lighting:
When using either the red heads or the portable lights we must make sure that any waires are taped up and that the lights themselves are on a stable base as so thay do not fall and cause injury. GLoves will be used when handling these lights, especially when they are turned on to avoid buring

Props:
As we are planning to use knives in our film we must make sure that we handle them with care, especially around other people

Trains:
We are going to be filming at a train station so we must take obvious precautions to not endanger ourselves or other people that may be at the station

Synopsis of Thriller opening - David, Chris and Jamie

We want to keep the story of our thriller opening simple, but we also wish to make the veiwer want to carry on watching the rest of the film. We will do this through raising Enigma codes and use of restricted narrative.



The plot of our thriller will be based on a phycotic murderer who is pursuing a victim. We will base this in a village and the targeted victim will be at a train station when the attackes choses to strike. The victim is then taken back to a house where he is gagged and knocked out by the murderer, with the use of knives the killer will kill people from his list of targets. The list is kept in the form of pictures.

The film starts whilst the victim is on the floor of his house, there will then be a flashback and the story will follow from there.

Saul Bass



Saul Bass was an American graphic designer (May 8, 1920 – April 25, 1996) and Academy Award-winning filmmaker, the things that made him most famous, however, was his animated title sequences. He worked with such directors as Alfred Hitchcock and Stanley Kubrick. He worked on legendary thrillers such as 'Vertigo' and 'Psycho', and added to the tension created by Hitchcock.

Bass was an expert at designing things that stood out, as well as title sequences he also created logos for many huge companies, such as the Continental Airlines' 1968 "jetstream" logo which became the most recognized airline industry logo of the 1970s.

His work is very relevant to what our group is doing now as his title sequences, although very clever, are simple to do to an extent. Obviously this varies from sequence to sequence but as we can see in such films as 'The Human Factor' not all of it is impossible to duplicate and draw inspiration from.
