THRILLER PLANNING IDEAS

Film noir ideas: Setting-Elm hill, (cobbled streets), maids head hotel area, night time - deserted- dark, old English houses- old style bedroom.


Costume ideas: Femme fatale- faux fur coat, heels, beret, clutch bag, pearl jellewary. Lover- White vest top. Running man- messy suit, hat, brief case. Man following- long coat, hat.
Cast: Holly Dove (femme fatale) played by Holly Delany. Running man. Jason Viper (killer) .
Props: cigarettes, make-up, jellewary, snake.
Summary: The opening credits displays an isolated woman (Holly Dove) walking in an old cobbled street. Audience sees a man standing in the alleyway smoking (Jason Viper). A stranger runs into her making her drop her belongings- a clutch bag. She picks up her bag and carries on walking. She reaches her destination (a house) and enters a room. Jason Viper (who has been following her) goes into the house and kills Holly Dove with a snake.
Soundtrack ideas: moonlight- Serenade. I like this song because it reflects the time that film is set in and is ironic to what happens in the opening of the thriller.

Soundies-Surrender. This is my preferred song as it conveys the femme fatale and her lover and the tragedy of what occurs. Through research into possible soundtrack ideas i have picked this song. The song could also be a message between the killer and the femme fatale, "just surrender".

  1. A sound start to planning. To strengthen mark your need to evaluate your planning by explaining links to genre and particularly to identify thriller texts which have informed your ideas. Without this information your planning would not be awarded more than Level 2.
