FIlm Idea

A guy wakes up in a dark building. The film would be split into two parts, one part consists of the guy looking around the dark building, possibly with a flashlight, and the other part showing a guy (or girl, not being sexist, just easier to write) running to try and save him. We can use shots of the guys legs as he's running, or just have the noise of running feet, and have music building up to the final part, which shows he guy running in to the building to find the first guy (confusing, I know) dead. We could show how he did, or we don't have to.

I think this is a good idea because it is simple to make, and its fairly unique. We can do it at night or day, as long as the building is fairly dark, it may also give the viewer other ideas, such as the guy running is in fact running from someone, or running from the building because he is the man who put the original guy there. There would also be parrallel action, which would be awesome.

So, for easy access when I look later

Guy wakes up
Half guy looking, Half other guy running
Foot shots (yay for bad terminoligy) and building music
Scene ends with dead guy
may show murder- may not

FIlm Genre

The film genre we have selected is horror. We arent sure what type of horror as of yet. We will look at opening to several horror films, including The Ring, The Exorcist and The Crazies. A list of what Ill be analysing will be put on soon.
