Fiction Film Ideas.
At first when it came to thinking of pitches, I became stuck for ideas and so I looked at numberous openings to give me influences and ideas.


Pitch 1.. - 
'Trap Door'
For this idea I thought that I could have the scene starting at the end of a black corridor aiming towards a door with a light shown on the other side. There would then be shadows rushing past walls as the camera gradually moves towards the door. There would be a soundover of screams and screeches and a character would start running towards the door (running towards the camera) having an uncomfortable and panicked expression. Lights would flicker and violin-like music would start to increase in volume as the tension builds. When they reach the door the character would grab the handle and slam the door, and the lights would go off on their own. The titles would then appear...

Pitch 2..
'Searching'
I thought that I would like to do a light weight film as I felt that it would be more challenging to make the audience feel connected with a less dramatic film, so I chose a love film. I would like the actor to be walking through a park surrounded by couples and look as though they are searching for someone, I would like the scenes to switch, then showing a woman looking for someone, they then brush past eachother and it then switches to scenes in towns where they are always near by eachother but never notice it. The audio would be very upbeat but slow paced to make the audience feel like they are drifting along with the scenes. The cuts would run smoothly and the scenes would be filmed outside.

Pitch 3..
'Liar'
For this idea I felt that I would stay along the lines of horror but include a bit of teenage situations to make the audience feel more connected. Although the beginning wouldn't fully include all characters, it would start by showing a girl in the middle of a group of friends and laughing and then a male character would appear and whisper in her ear, her face would drop and they would both leave the location. The next clip would show them walking into a wooded area, and music would start to appear in the background, he would start pushing her and asking her for the truth, but she would not know what to say or what to do. The girl would then walk off a little in front to have a think, in this time the boy would take a knife from his back pocket and stab her. He'd then repeat lines like 'how does it feel to be stabbed in the back' and would walk away from the body. But she would then come back round and give an evil stare at which point the title would come up and the picture would fade into blackness.
