After my idea didn't go very well ive got a new idea
A young girl is walking through the woods with the world on her shoulders, you can tell this by the fact she will be looking down at her feet not really paying attention she stops at and opening and we will hear lots of confusing noises like muttering annoying sounds like car horns babies crying, you can see she is getting madder by the fact she will start screaming stomping and swinging her arms around. As she swings around and stops she punches some one in the face and his tooth flies out of his mouth she stops falls to the floor to see if he is ok he looks up stares her in the eyes she stares back she gives him his tooth back he kisses her their life begins together.

Direction Unit- My Plan.
The story I am going to do a suspense film, where the audience will never see the face of one character in my film, while the other character ( the victim) you will see clearly, the victim in my film will be in pain as their teeth will be removed as a form of torcher, I will be making my own false blood that will ooze out of my actors mouth and I will also be making my own moulds of my actors teeth so I can make it more realistic for my audience also for more realistic feel I will be using actual teeth for any close up shots.
My Story
You will see a dark figure standing holding their hands out flat the camera will be behind the dark figure then shots will slowly get closer to the dark figure and you will then see a close up of one of their hands in the hand will be teeth covered in blood and in the other hand a heart shaped locked, the figure will be looking at two paths one that looks straight and plesent while the other is more twisted and darker looking, these paths will represent their choices will they make the right choice and go tell some one what they have done or pick the darker path with the teeth in their hand and carry on with what they have been doing, All through the film the dark figure will have tree branches and leaves to cover their idenity, also the dark figure will be leaving a trail of teeth the trail will be leading some where and left for some one to find and follow if they follow the path in time they will save out victim who will be in a white shirt covered in blood screaming in pain and they will save them, All through out following this dark figure we will see snaps that will show on screen for a short time showing what went on for this person to get the teeth they had.
The Look.
The look I will be aiming for is quite a dark look low lighting and I am hoping that I can get a shot of the suns ray's coming through the trees, I will be shooting at dusk so its still light but low enough to create the creepy suspense of not being able to see whats around the corner feel.

My Character
My victime character will be my friend howy the reason I wanted to use Howy was because his image is alsready quite dark and i wanted to see if i could make him look more vunerable than his as you can see from his image below he would fit the norm for the killer. He will be wear a drity white t-shirt covered in blood and jeans the reason I want him ina white shirt is so that the blood will be very clear on that shirt and also i find white is easy to dirty up.
My other character that will be dress completely in dark colours will be a female but i want to hide this from the audience until the end when she removes her dark hood to show long blonde hair this will be my twist in the story just to keep my audience in suspense cause blonde women tend to play the victim and are unlikely to cause so much pain on some one else.
The Location
The location I have to work with is a wooded park but in this park there are lots of paths that split off into two we also have steep staires and lots of places where a body could be hidden, I will be shooting quite deep into the woods just to get the feel of there being no other person being around them.

Director Unit: Location
Date: 5th September 2012
Today me and Lizzie went to the park location to have a look around and to see what we have to work with, the setting is ideal I would prefer low lit so I will be likely go to film around dusk time of the day where i can still get light filtering in through the trees. This will give my look to my film a bit more suspense cause you will not be able to see the person's face very clear.
Aim
To create suspense, using one location and lots of different camera angles.
Story.
Star i have a male and female character one will be a victim while the other is spotted walking through wooded area as they walking through the woods they see teeth in shallow shrubs clearly laid out to be found (or the person in the woody area will be laying out these teeth to be found by some one else) the teeth will be leading or showing a path to some where . through out the story we don't see the faces of the characters we will see backs of heads feet their hands wearing leather black gloves, also use camera angle from near the ground but also behind trees s that the trees will hide the face of the people with the teeth. Once the teeth have been placed down and the path has been set we start to see a figure in the distance as we get closer to the figure we see some one on the floor screaming in pain the dark figure that we have been following through out the whole film will show different close up shots of the person one will be of their hand clenched with blood dripping from it then we will look through the darker figure like an over the shoulder shot that's when we will see the victim tied to a tree with missing teeth and worn out clothes the victim will look very dirty worn out and bloody with a few bruises around their eyes then the darker figure will get closer to the victim the last shot will be of the dark figure with blood dripping from their hand then an over exposed shot so we will never truly see who the dark figure was.
Props.
For the teeth im going to attempt to make my own mould of my actors teeth and then use them to plant around the park covered in false blood which i will also try and make myself by looking up ways on how to make edible fake blood just so it will taste a little nicer in my actors mouth and maybe look a bit more real.

Semester 2 Director Unit. Early Planning
Date: September 4th 2012.
I've come in early to get a head start in some research about life and see what ideas i can get from the word life looking at short films that already touch on life to get ideas and also how i can use them ideas to bring the my tooth/teeth prop.
I've decided to a suspense film where my character will be hanging on to life, this way I can make a clear link between my theme and prop that i can work a little easier with this idea.
So when researching into suspense films i watched Saw 5 and phone booth and decided to follow the route of the saw 5 film just because it created suspense in more or less one place which is part of our brief we can only film within the park.
