Narrative idea:
We have decided that we want our OTS to be told from the perspective of a teenage girl, who will be our main character. The OTS will show the girl dead, whilst a creepy man is looking down at her from his window. The rest of the film will be re-telling what lead up to her death.
Mise en scene -
We have decided to have a typical 1940's dress code for our main character, meaning she will be wearing a nightdress, have her hair in curlers and wear distinctive make-up.
For the man, we have decided that he will be bearing a dressing gown (showing what time it is)
Our OTS will include shadows, be dark, include smoke and silhouettes
Characters:
We are breaking conventions by not having the typical film noir characters (femme fatale and anti-hero). Instead, the girl will play the role of the protagonist. The 'stalker' and the teenage girls are the only characters who will appear in our OTS
Camera and compositivion
- Framing through the window
- Over the shoulder shots - from behind man
- Close ups - girls eyes
- Wide/mid shots - of the girl hanging from the tree
Target Audience:
We have decided to aim our film noir at teenagers. We are modernising our film noir and are therefore setting it in modern times. It will hopefully appeal more to teenages because our main character (Elizabeth) will be about 16, meaning the audience may be able to emphasise with her more. Whereas, if the main character was 60, it would appeal to a different audience. Our target audience gender is most likely to be female because our narrator is a female. However, because of the 'horror' aspects to it, this may appeal to males.
Sound
Creaking of a rocking chair, thunder, wind, heavy breathing, background music (building up tension)
