We have began planning out our ideas for our film opening. Throughout the brainstorm process, my partner and I used three horror movie films/shows as inspiration. The first movie is “Scream” (1996 film). In the film opening, there was a teenage girl that would answer the phone and an unknown caller, the killer, would threaten her life. We will be using a teenage girl as the female lead of the movie. We have asked many of our friends and we have determined that it will be Valentina Suarez. She is an older looking teen and she is quite dramatic which will make her perfect for the role of our lead actress. We will also be using the phone aspect in our film opening, like in Scream, we will feature the phone as a way for the killer to reach the victim. When a person in our movie answers the phone, the monster gets inside of them and makes them want to kill themselves, and they will continue to call other people from their contacts.
The second movie that we got inspiration from was “Bird Box”, this is a film that has to do with a creature that gets inside of you and makes you want to kill yourself if you look at it. We will be applying this technique in our movie, except through the phone, not through sight. In our opening, the teenage girl will see her phone ringing, and the name of one of her friends will appear as the incoming caller. She will answer the phone thinking that she’s safe, and the monster will get inside of her. Lastly, we got an idea from the show “Criminal minds”. Every episode is a new mystery to solve for the FBI team. In the beginning of every episode, the crime that is being committed is shown to provide some background details for the viewer, it is only after that the episode starts unravel. We will be making our film opening in this way, one case of the whole movie, which is why the movie will begin with a tragedy.
