Log line ideas for opening sequence

  1. Kidnapping - A teenaged girl is the next victim of kidnapping after her 8 year old brother got taken whilst playing out near their home. She suffers from depression and demands her family to believe her 'hallucinations' of seeing strange men watching her.
  2. Paranormal - A group of friends go housesit for an auntie, however they are companied by unusual senses, creating an discomforting atmosphere changing their excitement of the night.
  3. Past life - A disturbing incident changed the structure of a young girls life forever. From her comforting upbringing into her disturbed future.
Final idea - For our opening sequence to push forward the genre of thriller, we have decided to base our idea around a kidding of a young boy and the effects it has on the older sister. We need to make sure we keep enigma in mind so let the entire story out in the opening sequence, like a trailer would. It belongs to the thriller genre so we need to create a sense of tension and suspicion throughout. The atmosphere will be uncomfortable to present the thriller feel. To enable that this happens we will include non diegetic sounds over the top of our filming which creates the tension building.
