Planning the Film

The characters that will be seen in the first few minutes will be a dead lady, the main bad guy, the young men and the alive lady. The villain will be noticed by using dark clothing and shadows. We would like to cast Harry Baldwin, Emma Weaver, Austin Davis and Connor Nicholls. The costumes will be 1920 influenced, the main character will wear a dark suit and trilby hat, the main lady might wear a red or black dress and possibly a red coat. There will also be modern clothes like jeans and hoodies. We are hoping to film in the woods, in an office and by a swamp or run down area. We want the set in the office to look business-like and unfriendly. We will use props such as a cigar, a lamp, a desk and a phone. We want to create a scary, mysterious and threatening atmosphere. So far the order of events will go; the audience see a dead lady who they do not know, the legs of a man walking in the same location then at a different time, the audience will see two young men walking in the woods and the main character and the alive woman who they now know was the dead lady in an office. We will use enigma codes such as not showing the dead lady's face, or showing the main character's face in full light. The action code we are going to use is not say where the young men are going but suggest they are walking to the office by making them walk in the direction of the office on the camera. The audience might be anxious for the young men and possibly the main lady. The titles will be in bold, old style font and the main title will be in red. All credits will fade in and out while the background is the shot of the man walking.
