1.) A lonely, crippled man is being watched at every corner and glimpse by his suspiciously looking son. We wanted to convey a distressed relationship between the father and son and maybe add a dramatic twist involving flashbacks.
2.) A Halloween party where one boy is the outcast. He feels isolated from his peers, making audiences feel something dark is gong to happen to the character, we introduce a killer walking rapidly through an alleyway. Cutting simultaneously from the party and the killers location, we see a shot of a knife in the kitchen. Then we do not see the killer for a period of time and another shot of the knifes location where it appears to be gone. A scream rushes the party residents outside to see the boy dead from a lower angle, with a kiss mark smudged across his cheek to present the killers sick motif.
Obviously we decided the second option seemed more likely as we had much more ideas for it.
We then decided on the setting, as this was going to be a house party we had to arrange where we would be filming the project.
I suggested my house, so we went to take some location shots. We decided the setting was the right choice and it was also easy to get to and from school as it's located in the local area.
