Final Ideas

• BEFORE COMING UP WITH OUR FINAL IDEAS, WE HAD A RANGE OF IDEAS WHICH WE DID NOT KNOW HOW TO PUT TOGETHER. IN THE END, WE HAVE DECIDED THE ORDER TO SHOW THE SEQUENCE IN AND HOW LONG EACH SHOT WILL BE. THE FINAL IDEA WAS THAT WE WILL START OFF THE SCENE IN A BEDROOM, WHICH WILL HAVE SCARLET’S (THE VICTIM’S) TOYS IN IT. THOSE TOYS ARE HER CHILDHOOD TOYS WHICH SHE USED TO PLAY WITH. THROUGHOUT THE TITLE SEQUENCE, SCARLET GOES THROUGH ONE OBJECT AT A TIME, AND WITHIN EACH OBJECT IS A FEARFUL MEMORY OF HERS.

• JEWELLERY BOX- THIS IS SOMETHING SHE USED TO PLAY WITH. ITS TUNE WOULD SOUND SWEET, WHEREAS IN THE PRESENT IT SOUNDS QUITE EERIE.

• THE DOLL- IS PASSING PAST THE MIRROR IN THE JEWELLERY BOX, LIKE IT HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN. IN THE NEXT SHOT, THE DOLL APPEARS ON THE SOFA ALL OF A SUDDEN.

• FAIRY TALE- SCARLET WILL BE REMEMBERING HER PAST, HOW HER MOTHER USED TO READ FAIRY TALES TO HER IN HER CHILDHOOD. SHE IS NOSTALGIC, AS HER MOTHER’S VOICE PLAYS LIKE A RECORD IN HER HEAD. SHE STARTS FREAKING OUT AND RIPS THE BOOK VERY ROUGHLY SO THAT ALL THE PAGES TEAR APART. IT’S LIKE SHE IS TEARING HER MEMORIES UP.

• TEA CUP- AS A YOUNG GIRL, SCARLET WOULD PLAY WITH HER TEA SET AND PRETEND TO MAKE TEA. IN HER PRESENT, THE “TEAS” SHE USED TO MAKE ARE MENACING. SHE POURS THE RED LIQUID INTO THE CUP AND STIRS IT AROUND. THIS RED LIQUID SHE HAS CREATED IS POISON.

• SUMMARY:

• OVERALL, THE STORYLINE FOR THIS TITLE SEQUENCE IS SOMEWHAT A TYPICAL HORROR MOVIE, BUT WITH A TWIST. SCARLET IS A VICTIM, AND SHE MAKES OTHERS HER VICTIMS TOO- THIS IS SOMETHING WHICH CHALLENGES THE STEREOTYPES. SCARLET IS A YOUNG WOMAN WHO HAS BEEN LIVING A MISERABLE LIFE DUE TO THE PASSING AWAY OF HER BELOVED MOTHER. EVER SINCE HER MOTHER HAD DIED, SCARLET CANNOT GET OVER THIS FACT AND FACE THE HARSHNESS OF LIFE. ONE DAY, SCARLET VISITS HER BEDROOM SHE USED TO SLEEP AND PLAY IN DURING HER CHILDHOOD. SHE LOOKS AT EVERY TOY SHE USED TO HAVE FUN WITH, AND REMEMBERS HER TERRIBLE PAST- EVERYTHING IN HER ROOM IS LINKED TO THE MEMORIES OF HER MOTHER. DUE TO ALL THESE THOUGHTS ROAMING IN HER MIND, SHE CANNOT TAKE IT ANYMORE UNTIL SHE STARTS BEHAVING IN A VERY DISTURBING MANOR, AND STARTS DOING UNUSUAL ACTIVITIES. SHE THEN RUNS OFF INTO THE WOODS AND DOES “ABNORMAL” THINGS THERE TOO. HER MEMORIES HAVE BEEN DRIVING HER INSANE, AND SHE IS PSYCHOLOGICALLY AFFECTED.
