My Film - Initial Ideas

1.) Main character in bed, ^^^, tries to sleep again - nightmare(?)(jump cut images of a nightmare) - wakes up sweating - rolls over to sleep again, eyes open to the sound of shattering glass. 

2.) Lots of jump cuts - character keeps waking up in different places. Could use a specific item or effect in the peripheral of each scene. Voice over/non-diegetic sound.

3.) Normal bathroom routine - bends to spit out toothpaste, reflection doesn't move, (blinks - eyes change colour) just looks down at real person. Real person looks back up, reflection is smiling - holding scissors. Real person looks in confusion, then terror - reflection slits throat - real person's blood splatters window, drops to floor. Reflection smiles - bloodied teeth, blood dripping from neck - turns to look directly into the camera, tilts head, smiles wider. 

Influences

• Scream (1996)
• Scream (Netflix Series, 2015-) Opens with shot of a lake and dock at night, non-diegetic music playing "Daisy Daisy.." - cut to make out scene and then montage (with non-diegetic music) of social media sharing before a close-up of a character's face, then cut to an antagonist and murder scene commences
