What do you find most important in a film

intro?• For example talk about the music – fast or slow

paced?• Also action or no action at the start?

Which idea do you think is best?

• My second idea consists of a detective/policeman coming home in a storm, but realising a criminal has recently escaped from a prison nearby to his town. He then becomes conscious of his stalker when the door he closed is wide open, revealing the pouring rain he was earlier in. Shots include establishing shots of his house, shots of his windows with a black figure walking around, and over the shoulder shots of doors or places he just visited. For the music, it would have to be something Dark, slow and bassy.

This?• I have an idea of the main character receiving

random messages from a known person on a social media website. This known person is also known to be dead so there is a sense of mystery and suspense built in the audience. At the end of the messages the protagonist would close down his laptop in dark room and a face would appear to create the element of surprise and scare the audience.

Maybe this one?• My third idea is about a man getting ready for

something unknown. by the way he is dressed, it could be work or a job interview, but certain aspects of what he is wearing and what he is doing suggests otherwise. It begins with him waking up and getting ready, like a normal person, with aspects of something strange, and then walking down a busy street. shots include low shots of his feet as he walks, over the shoulder shots as he looks in the mirror, and 'selfie' styled shots. music would be upbeat and funky, like 'Superstitious' by Stevie Wonder.

Finally you might like this?

• My 4th idea would be something like a drug deal going down and then the dealers get angry and the buyer has to run away. The opening of this scene would be the deal going down and then the rest of the film that we make would be the chase.
