Locations

Our thriller opening shows a journey of a girl from home to a mystery location via a train, however on route she goes missing and never reaches her desired destination. With in the opening sequence we also see a CID officer in a police office and a boy waiting aoutside a police station. Our story line shows that the main character never reaches this boy and in fact is missing.

The locations we plan to film on are the following;

• Home of the main character: This is our starting location for our film; this location is actually kept a mystery to what role it actually plays. Characters are only shown outside the house and without the main character. The audience do not know whos house it is and yet what scenes or aspects later occur here.
• Train station: We have chosen the train station because it would create anticipation and encourage the audience to question. This location would be busy so would add a sense of confusion and tension to the shot.
• Route: We have chosen to add the main road into the route from the train station to the police station because it adds an element of confusion to our story line. From our opening to minutes, the audience are meant to presume that our main character has in fact gone missing along this route. But with the aspect of the main road in the route, this brings up certain questions such as; who could have seen? Who was there? How could you go missing in such a busy area? This scene encourages the audience to question the conventions and meaning of our two opening minutes.
• Police Station: This is the location where we first see the boy. The boy left waiting outside the police station. This makes the audience wonder why he is here and they learn that he is waiting for the girl.
• Police Office: This is the location where we see our CID officer. This location presents vital information in the two opening mintues. Along with our voice over, this scene shows that the girl has gone missing along side three others. All Four girls are shown to have gone missing on the 17th of every consecutive month.
