Final Plan

We began to tweak our idea and changed bits of it. We stuck with the main plot of a person being tortured and attempting to escape, but we added a part at the end where the main character escapes and throws himself off the roof.
We then began to think about it logically and realised that we had much more screen time then we were given. Therefore we needed to cut it down. We decided that the big climax was at the end where the man jumps off the roof, so we decided to make this our main subject.
We played with different ideas of asking why he would commit suicide.
Therefore the final outcome was to start off with pieces of paper floating down softly and calmly, and switch to close-ups of the main subject looking depressed and confused. This confuses the audience and draws them in. You then learn that he is throwing the paper (bank statements) off the roof but it confuses the audience at to why he is doing this; it may make the audience begin to think that he is a depressed business man. Once all the paper is gone he is left standing there, he then jumps off the roof. Whilst he is lying on the floor, there is a close up of his face and the camera then tracks to a sign labelled ‘home for the mentally ill.’ This is a good opening sequence to the film because it leaves the audience hanging and asking themselves questions that will be answered throughout the rest of the film. This was our aim, we wanted a sequence that will draw the audience in make them want to watch more.
