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.

The Forgotten Opening Titles Analysis - Chris Forrest

We are immediately greeted with a birds eye view of the sea which then pans across to the city, giving us an idea of the location of where the film takes place.

Titles fade in and out in a white neutral font adding nothing to the narrative as there is nothing distinctive about the lettering.

Restricted narrative is used throughout this title sequence, examples of this are:

- we are not shown exactly where the shots are taking place
- no information is given away about the characters on screen

When the woman looks at the picture of the boy, we assume that it's her son, but she may also be seen as the antagonist and the boy might be the victim, the soundtrack suggests this in a way as it creates an uneasy, dark atmosphere.

By keeping such things hidden, Enigma is raised very early on keeping the viewer interested which is something we would like to incorperate into our final film.
