Treatment For Two Minute Opening Of A Thriller Opening (Elizabeth Rayner)

Our thriller opening will have two locations; one a college campus in which our character works at, the other being their home. The thriller will have very only two characters, our main character will be a teacher and the other will be her victim, also one of her students. The premise of our opening is thus – a teacher going about their daily life then we will be cutting to their private life – a far more sinister and dark world. We will be using the editing technique of “crosscutting” to intermingle the two, and create a sense of wonderment and suspense for the audience.

The mood of the opening will be very similar to many, if not all thrillers – very tense and atmospheric, making the audience want to watch more. It will contain no dialogue, but suspenseful, ambient music. We are not going to choose a famous soundtrack however, as we do not want to mislead our audience.

We have decided to do something different for our thriller opening, to give it an unusual feel. Since we are cutting between the two mediums of our protagonists life, we are going to use two different colours. We’re going to have the characters daily life as a teacher in colour, to connote how 'bright' her life is in the daytime. When we cut to her private world, we’re going to change to black and white – almost as though a filter is being put over her daily life.
