Plotline

The story begins with the protagonist who has recently suffered the death of her sister and is coming to her graveyard in order to mourn her. While she is there, she hears something so she looks around her and thinks she sees her sister. Her sister then runs away from her and the protagonist chases her through the cemetery. She finally ends up at a chapel where her sister stands facing away from her. She approaches and says her name/taps her. The sister turns around to reveal a gory and terrifying face. The protagonist screams.


In further detail explaining more of the shots/ effects we plan to use.

-The protagonist goes into the graveyard: we will start off with establishing shots of cemetery. Then we'll pan the protagonist walking up the path and potentially use close ups of her feet walking along or dress trailing in the mud. This is where we would consider having any credits such as our names and title.

-Mourns sister while at crouching at her gravestone with a photograph in her hand: We'll use over the shoulder and POV shots to show the photograph in the protagonist's hand. We'll also use close-ups of the protagonist's face and eyes to show her emotion. Further away shots slightly obscured from behind a tree or gravestone to give the allusion of being watched. In this section creepy/eerie music will be used.


-Protagonist sees things out of the corner of her eye: Use medium shot of the sister standing behind the protagonist, make it quite quick and use sudden, dramatic music to make the audience jump. Extreme close-up of the protagonists eyes looking for someone/being scared.


-Protagonist sees her sister: show a long shot/medium shot of the sister standing, audience see a close up to confirm it's the same person as in the picture.

-Sister starts running away she follows her off through graveyard: low angle shot of the protagonist running, full shot of the chase, close up and low angle of the feet (both characters), POV shot of the protagonist running still holding the photograph. Meanwhile the sky will get slightly darker (will film the second part at a darker time in the day) and the atmosphere will get more tense as the music will get more dramatic and built up and heavy breathing will be emphasised.


-Ends up at the chapel the sister turned away from her: Medium shot of the back of the sister, close up of Protagonist's expression/ over-the-shoulder of the Protagonist whilst showing only the hair/dress of the Sister causing tension as the audience can't see her face and feel threatened. The music will stop and silence will be used to create fear and tension.

-Protagonist approaches the sister: Profile shot of the characters as she taps her on the shoulder.

-Sister turns around: Slowly see the back of the Sister's head turn around to create tension, close-up of the Sister's gory face, quick zoom in to the eyes which will look demonic (may use contact lenses). More dramatic music to make the audience jump.

-Protagonist screams: Close-up of protagonist. Shrill scream of the protagonist will be emphasised.

-Fade to black.
