Script


  • For the two minute opening of our film we decided that it will be most effective if we don't embed dialogue because this way the audience's main focus will be on the action itself and content of the film shown rather than what the characters are saying. 


  • Additionally, as there will be no added dialogue we can use music and diegetic sound to our advantage to build up tension and suspense. For example, we would like to add diegetic sound of heavy breathing, screaming and crying from the protagonist. We would possibly like to add  a stereotypical evil laugh to connote that the villain's intensions will not change as he finds pleasure in his action. This will be portrayed in the flashback scene. 


  • Other than the diegetic sounds that we will be controlling, we would like to also add some of those naturally created in a forest to contrast with the story line and what's going to happen. However, we would only like to add these at the very beginning, for example birds tweeting and the sound of the wind and sounds of running. We will decide what sounds we want the characters to make while we are filming, that way the sounds will be more natural and realistic rather than forced and will therefore, add to the tension that the audience will be feeling. 


  • Furthermore, because our film has an element of mystery and crime to it we don't want too give too much away, only possibly giving hints of what will happen or even better let the audience interpret the opening two minutes in their own individual ways. We therefore, think that an ambiguous beginning will be very effective.
