Media Coursework: Video task summary

The brief task that I have chosen to do is the video brief. On the task, I will be working with 3 other people, Brandon, Ben and James.

Our preliminary idea is a meet up between a gang leader and a hit man.

Our Main idea is an opening for a horror. The opening will start with a girl walking through some woods, she looks at her phone and gets knocked out, but the murderer. The girl is found tied up with tape over her mouth, the killer walks from the forest getting close to her and eventually killing her. Shot cuts to two policemen inspecting the body, the have a brief conversation and go their separate ways, scene ends with policeman on the phone. Opening credits will be with the girl walking.The murder will be in a dark colour/shade to show something bad will happen. Also, to make the murder more gruesome and unsettling, this could also be achieved with tilted camera angle or a P.O.V shot. The murder section of the opening will be shot in reverse, so our murderer will have to go through his motions backwards,  so ultimately when the footage is reversed, his actions will seem uneven and wrong, to give a the murderer a 'inhuman' quality.

Characters: Policemen, murderer, victim.

Location: wooded area of Bitterne Park Secondary School.
