Plot Summaries

1) My first plot summary was to see a train rushing past at a station set at night. Then the character that was visible on the other side disappears out of view. The train would woosh past using the trains diagetic sound. The character will be wearing the contact lenses previously blogged about, and will be wearing rags as clothes with bare feet. On the drive home, a pack of the characters will run out across the road from the fields in front of the car. The characters will all look similar with different rags but all with bare feet and contact lenses in. One character will stop running and look into the car then run off with the rest.

This is just one plot beggining i have come up with obviously it needs a lot of tweaking and fine tuning.

2) Another plot idea would be to concentrate on one male character and follow him around his day in london. He will be dressed smart and can start of slow and then his heartbeat will increase he may start to sweat, this will give viewers the feeling something is about to happen, he then will board some sort of public transport and the camera will start to focus on his bag which viewers will then realise he had with him all day. The clip will end with the character sweating and sitting with his bag held tightly on a london train.

Although i really like this plot in reality it might be quite a hard plot to actually film as you would need permission from the transport agencies, especially when filming about such a touchy topic.

3) Another plot idea would be using my favourite first idea of the train whooshing past, again the character will not be seen after the train has gone past, but on the drive home, the character will flicker in the seat next to him and be present for a second or two. When the driver gets home, he may sit to watch some tv and again the character will flicker next to him.

The viewers wont know whether this character is real and if he wants to cause harm or not, this will leave the viewer thinking about it a lot. This is my favourite idea because i feel with the equipment we have this could work quite well without trying anything to spectacular.
