We were asked to come up with an idea for a possible thriller movie and then present this idea to the rest of the class that could form the basis of one of the production group's projects.
My initial idea
My initial thriller idea for a film sequence began with a close up of hands building a wall at night. The camera then moved to a sequence of 3 people waking up; these 3 people belonging to 3 specific groups according to race, sexuality and religion. The scene would progress, cutting in a montage style between each person opening the door to go outside and finding that they are trapped in a maze with no way out. There is some symbolism in this as a black person would be trapped in a maze of white walls (representing the skin colour that they ''should have'') a gay person trapped in red walls (representing lust etc) and a religious person surronded by black walls (takes away the light-God is light)
This sequence was designed to generate tension and enigma by capturing the viewer's interest, making them want to know more.
Props & Locations
I wasn't completely sure about where I wanted the sequence to be filmed, but I thought about using the studio space. For our props we would need bricks or fake bricks and paint.
