Summary of Plot
Our opening will be for a thriller, specifically a mystery thriller subplot that is based around two characters, one of which appears to be following the other. Both Characters will remain unnamed throughout the introduction to support the theme of mystery and so will be referred to in this document as the ‘main character’ and ‘the chaser’.
The chaser remains facially anonymous throughout adding an element of suspense to the opening, whilst supporting the idea of mystery within the film.
The opening shot will be of the main character standing alone in poorly light area, receiving a text warning him that he is being followed, this will be shown using an extreme close up. The sender will appear anonymous or abbreviated to add an element of mystery to the shot.
There will be a key shot following this, the reaction of the main character will be followed by a glimpse of the follower in the distance, adding dramatic irony within the scene while still remaining largely anonymous, supporting the idea of a thriller, and its mystery subplot.
A medium shot will then be used, allowing the audience to see the character clearly within the scene, followed by a close up of the pursuers lower half walking across the camera’s viewpoint, adding further suspense to the scene as they are not known to the audience.
The penultimate shot will contain a distant viewpoint of the character walking and crossing a bridge, followed by the pursuer. This further supports the idea of suspense and obscurity associated with a mystery thriller.
The final shot will contain a sequence of fast cuts followed by an extreme close up of the chaser who is masked. The use of fast cutting will be used to create the impression the pursuer is moving unnaturally, emphasising the suggestion of mystery.
There will be no use of dialogue within the thriller introduction, in an attempt to draw the audience in to the film, whilst keeping the plot of the film largely unknown. This further supports the idea of mystery that would flow throughout the film.
