Initial Ideas

Our first ideas as a group:

• Physcological horror.
• Set in Lowestoft - historical, haunted town.
• Characters to find something Eg. Writing or a diary - one of the characters to become obsessed by this.
• Filmed at night time, dusk, no one around.
• As it gets darker the events get creepier and creepier.
• Handheld camera shots.
• Characters are tourists - do not know the area particularly well.
• People get lost.
• Lighting - night vision, torches.
• An unknown figure appears.
• Camera cuts at the end of the trailer.
• Running - desperate - trying to escape.
• Shaking.
• Finding a dead body.

First Idea
Three young people driving around lowestoft late at night. For some reason they get lost (undecided as to why yet). Two people then leave the car to go to the beach/cliffs. The camera sees a mysterious, shady character in the background. The people go back to the car but then realise they have left something on the beach and one person goes back to retrieve it. Whilst he is gone he comes across a buried dead body with a plastic bag covering his head and runs back to the car to get the other two people to show them what he has found. The body is gone. They go back to the car and the person who witnessed the dead body is fixated on it, and can't stop thinking and worrying about it but the other two don't believe that he has really seen it and laugh and joke about it. They look in the car and see that the body the person saw laying dead earlier is sitting faced forward in their car, possibly breathing, but also not alive. All of the characters then run away, deeply scared. There are quick camera movements of them running , the camera looks up and comes across a dark figure in front of them and then cuts out.
