Me and Steven both had different views on what would make a good thriller as you can see from our ‘Pitch PowerPoint’; my idea was mainly based around using enticing shot types and a psychedelic environment to catch the viewer’s eye. Steven put a lot of thought into an interesting idea to combine with these ideas about a young teen who is suffering from a mental trauma from a horrific event that he witnessed whilst fishing with his friends.
Ryan (Steven) is the main character in this and he is the one who is having severe flashbacks due to witnessing the killing of one of his friends. The whole reason his friend was killed is because James (me) gave everyone a psychedelic drug at the lake which caused John (Conner) to have a ‘bad trip’ and think that James was his enemy so he grabbed his fishing knife and lunged at James.
Steven is working in his conservatory (Ryans office) when he collapses and begins to have flashbacks of this terrible event the rest of the opening is flickering between real time and the past also any point after the drug is taken is emphasised appropriately.
This is only the opening and after this the idea is that Ryan (Steven) continues to have these flashbacks and it drives him to insanity when this happens a whole range of strange events begin to occur and the viewer will feel true sorrow for this unfortunate character.
