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.

Textual Analysis of Joyride - David Duffy

Set up:

The protagonist is talking on the phone, he is looking up at a power box on the side of a telegraph poll

He gets in his car and drives off


Confrontation:

The same man meets antagonist characters

They trick him and one of them hits the man with an axe

The two evil men capture him and put him into the boot of their car

There is a confrontation between the two evil characters and two other police officers

The police officers are killed

There is a chase scene in which a police car chases the two evil men with the first character still in the boot

The man then tries to escape after the car crashes

He spills petrol over himself whilst in the boot


Resolution:

The man gets out of crashed car and alerts nearby police officers

The man also knocks out the surviving evil character

He finds himself in the same spot as he was in at the beginning

He dies after the spilled petrol catches a light



Examples of restricted and unrestricted narrative:

We see usage of restricted narrative whilst the protagonist is in the boot of the car, the close ups of him show that he is trapped and we can’t see the activity that goes on outside the car

There is also usage of unrestricted narrative, for example during the chase scene when we see all of the activity that is occurring

When we hear fighting occurring outside of the car, we are just as restricted as the protagonist is in these parts


Uses of Binary opposition:

The protagonist and the antagonists only oppose3 each other on a few occasions, but they do at the beginning of the sequence when they first meet – this is an example of binary opposition

Towards the end of the film the protagonist and one of the antagonists oppose each other, during this they have a short fight
