Thriller Opening: Sanctum

A newly wed couple sophie and ben are back fromtheir love filled honeymoon, and on their return a suprise from bens past is waiting for them. Sophie discovers Bens secret, but will there lives be the same.


We have chosen this idea because its more towards the thriller genre than our other ideas.

Opens with panning around some wedding photos and some other items that re associated with a wedding. This is to indicate that someone has just got married. There will be quiet music throughout the shot. The married couple then enter the shot happy, unaware of whats about to happen. Theres a dark figure of a man standing in the shadows. walks forward to reveal his face and bens reaction gives away that he knows him. Theres an intense unfriendly discussion between ben and the man. Ben has to now tell Sophie his dark secret. The 180 degree rule will be used and low angle shots to create more tension, music will get faster and louder as there is a struggle. Cut of the outside of the house and you hear sophie scream.

3 main actors will be needed for this opening.

Before we begin filming we will need to:
-Find actors which are suitable.
-Find a setting.
-Find any props we need e.g wedding dress for photos
-Music, soundsnap.com or make our own piece of music.
