Initial Concept Development Process

Initially as a group we came up with a proposal that blended several of each persons ideas into a cohesive narrative which followed a man (just after he has committed a crime of some kind probably murder) and a seemingly unrelated woman until they eventually meet in a building overlooking London during this scene they would converse and it would become apparent that the female character would be in control despite being seemingly younger.

However after viewing past pieces of coursework from years before we scrapped this plot as we thought that the shots required would take a unnecessary large amount of time and so it would be likely that something would go wrong requiring us to re-shoot these shots which could lead to some flaws in the final piece. Because of this we decided to rethink our ideas and came up with another new idea.

Rather than going for a more crime focused thriller we decided to focus on the psychological side of thriller films leaning towards the horror genre. CKJ's idea formed the basis of this proposal which I believe we are sticking with however this is yet to be confirmed as this idea is constantly evolving

This idea was simplified when compared with the previous idea because of two major reasons. Firstly the age of the characters were far easier to achieve in the time we had. In the original idea the actors we could have used would have looked the wrong age for the situation they were in whereas with this new idea that characters weren't meant to be older they were around our age so the casting would be far easier. Secondly the locations chosen were far more realistic than the previous ideas which were just a little bit too ambitious to achieve (where were we going to find a building overlooking London that we could film in?). It was these concerns that lead us to come up with the final idea
