Film Planning

When it came to planning for our film, we had already decided that we wanted to make a thriller because of the films that we had already watched beforehand.
When brainstorming what we wanted to do, I wrote this list of possible ideas as to what we could include in the film.

Some of the key things that came from our brainstorm of ideas was that we really wanted to:

• make a thriller/drama film
• use low lighting to create tension and possibly use a black and white filter
• use flashbacks
• have long takes
• use someone walking through hallways (which we then changed to running up a stairwell.)

We also googled the word 'murder' and looked for possible film names by finding the synonyms of the word. In the end we came up with 'Homicide' and then decided to go with the word 'Demise' for the title of our film.
