Criteria for Prelim task

When we was presented the idea of doing a preliminary task, our teacher gave us some criteria for us to abide by when planning. She gave us this criteria because she wanted all of our film openings to be based around the same idea, but wanted to see how imaginative we are in taking the same basic proposal and making them completley different to our other classmates. our criteria was: 1) A character opening a door 2) Crossing a room 3) Sitting down in a chair opposite another character 4) Exchange dialogue We included all of these scenes in our opening sequence, but added a bit more to it for example Pan shots and tension. As well as change of character, emotion and shots of characters walking.

Prelim Dialogue

Husband "Kassandra." "Kassandra answer me we can sort this out okay" *Discovers she is dead* "Kassandra!" Murderer walks in Murderer "She's dead" Husband "I will get you back for this" Lighting- Dark, want the tone to be eary Setting- Main hall, rows of chairs give off the church effect. we decided to keep the dialogue quite 'short and sweet' because we want the opening of our film to create a atmosphere that throws alot of questions into the audiences heads. This is because general thriller are known to build tension in order for the viewer to enjoy the real scary mysterious experience. The questions we are hoping our viewers might be asking are 'why is he looking for her?' 'why is she dead?' 'how was she killed?' 'whos the person who killed her?' 'why is it set in a church?'

It will help us to be organised and also to know everything we have done and need to put into each shot. We will use it as a guideline whilst we’re filming.
