ok.. i'm not gonna storyboard quite yet, just post a synopsis of my idea.

just for the record, this is my idea so don't go stealing it !!!


It is a very visual opening, with very short clips cutting in and out of black, like a very slow strobe. in time with some heart-beatingly tense music, of a girl (has to be hot) killing someone in a bathroom, in a really bloody and violent way. these could even be stills, i think that that would have a very similar effect, and could possibly be better, as with a still it is easier to make a perfect composition. The colouir balance of these shots/clips would/could have that black 'n' red tint, like this photo, but obviously with the right subject matter, this is the best example i could find on google:



anyway, after the flashes of stills/clips of someone getting shanked multiple times, there would be a total change of mood, with the music and mise en scene, and the girl would wake up after some insane house party, where everyone's crashed out on someone's livingroom floor like that shot in skins after the party. Anyway, she'd wake up, maybe a blurry pov camera shot, and she'd look at her hands and see blood, and run to the bathroom to wash it off, finding there the body of the person she had killed, but which she doesn't remember killing, but peicing all the evidence together assumes she has. Then the scene would end.

There are two different ways the story could go after the opening, which although i won't have to plan/shoot/film/edit i still have to think about, so the opening can contain subtle hints. Either it could be a schitzo thing, where she just goes around killing people but doesn't remember it, like that character in Heroes (Niki Sanders), but i fear that it would go too far down the silence of the lambs road, or it could be about her trying to escape the law, she could go on the run, and it would involve far more character development of that one main character, kinda like in Psycho after Marion Crane steals the money and has to hide from that policeman.
