SNAP:


Setting:
There are going to be three main setting for are opening sequence, a normal setting of three girls walking down the the street a setting of a derelict where the girl has been kidnapped and is being kept, and a bedroom where a man is looking at the girls myspace page. The sequence will flash between the two of these settings as they contrast against each other. The first shot you will see is the girl tied up in the derelict building, then it will flash to her walking down the street indicating that it is a flash back.

Characters:
There are going to be two main characters introduced in the opening, the girl that is being stalked and kidnapped and the man who is stalking her.

Plot:
The plot is all about the girl being taken my a mystery man, you will never see his face as it keeps the audience guessing. In the flash backs you will see that he is stalking the girl, following her around and taking photos of her, he finds out the information about the girl by looking on her myspace page and finding out her address and printing off a picture of her. Then when it flashes back to whats happening you will see the girl tied up in the derelict building where the camera will pan along the beams in the building and the audience will be able to see dolls being hung from the beam then there is a space, the camera pans down and you see the girl tied up on the chair as if waiting to be hung.

Mise en scene:
In the derelict building we need to hang the dolls from the beam and try to make the building seem more scary e.g. have broken glass lying around etc
In the room there will newspaper articles stuck on the wall of missing cases and murders.
We will need a chair for the girl to be tied up on. Then in the 'normal' setting the stalker is going to be sitting on a bench with a camera taking photos of the girl, who is just walking along with two of her friends holding shopping bags. We will need a camera and a flash for the camera.

Effects:
When the stalker is taking photos of the girl with every photo he takes the image freezes and turns into a Polaroid which acts as the credits and will have a name on it, this happens about 4 times with a different name coming up each time, and with every photo he takes a bright flash comes up on to th screen then fades to reveal the Polaroid.


Flashbacks:
To make the transition from the dark room to the flashback we will have a close up of the girls face then she closes her eyes which then cuts to the flashbacks.
To make the audience understand that the scenes with the girl being stalked are flashbacks where are going to use a soft focus effect ad have bright colours indicating that she is happy and show that it is contrasting to the actual situation she is in, being tied up in a dark gloomy room.
