A killer is on the loose, he visits his victims in their dreams before appearing in reality to brutally murder them. This story is about Alice who has been having dreams featuring this masked stranger for months. She must elude him for long enough to discover how to defeat him. As her friends are taken down one by one the pressure is on to save herself. What about the opening sequence?
I plan to do a dream sequence that takes place in a forest. The victim (a stereotypical blonde girl)who is covered in blood will be running through the woods looking back from the way she came. Here I could use some over the shoulder shots from the antagonist watching her run away. The pace for these shots will be very fast. After a period of running she will reach a dead end, a small cliff face. She will turn around, surveying her surroundings. Here will be some point of view shots to show what she can see: leaves rustling, odd glances of the antagonist etc.. He will creep up on here and cover her mouth so no one can hear her screams.
Then it will cut to her bolt upright in bed, revealing it was all a dream.
Next I planned to have her go downstairs any he is outside the kitchen window but it was pointed out to me that that would be a lot of action to fit into two minutes. So I now intend to have a knocking at her bedroom door, she goes and opens it. Waiting for her on the other side is the antagonist. She screams and this is where the sequence will end.
