Location shots

The dining hallway which leads to the reception area and the entrance. The killer uses this dining hallway to move to the entrance.

View from the entrance into the bathroom. This is where the victim meets his demise, and the janitor discovers the corpse.

Another view in the bathroom, this showing the entrance to the bathroom which the killer, victim and janitor enter from. The teachers would also have entered from here.

The bathroom and sinks where the victim notices the killer shortly before his death.

The D&T area in the hallway where the teachers would have met to discuss suspicions of the then unknown killer, prior to their removal from the final script.

Hallway No. 1 - The first and main hallway in the film. This is used by the murderer, victim and janitor. The teachers, once again, would have used this hallway prior to their removal from the script.

Animatic

Here's our animatic finally uploaded.

The animatic outlines the basic times we want each scene to run for, approximately. Of course, we may not stick exactly to it, but it is a guideline. So if we follow the animatic's times, we should end up with a 3-4 minute film.

As far as I(Daniel) am concerned, there doesn't appear to be anything that needs changing at this point, apart from possibly more cuts. Either way, I am sure we'll end up changing things during filming, but until then, we'll see.

All we need to do now, of course, is film and edit.

Thriller Risk Assessment

This is the risk assessment we had to fill in for filming. We checked each filming area thoroughly before we filled in the risk assessment, to make sure that we had filled it in correctly, as this risk assessment was used for all of the filming instead of one for each scene.

Thriller Storyboard

This is the storyboard that we intended to use for the final film. Unfortunately, it was changed quite a bit for the final film, but most of the script is basically the same. Changes in the scripture of the final film were done during editing, mostly to make the film make more sense, and also to get the film down into two minutes.

Thriller Opening Treatment - Nicolas

The opening sequence of the thriller starts with an extreme close up of the eyes of a man. The eyes looks really scared. You see these eyes for round about 10 seconds, they are moving from side to side. After this the picture of these eyes is going smaller (25% of the display). At the other 75% of the display you see a second pair of scared looking eyes. You also see them for round about 10 seconds. These shot is going smaller (25%) too. The same thing happens with two more pairs of eyes until you have 4 different extreme close ups of different eyes.
At the end the camera zoomed in to the first pairs of eyes (100% of the display) the camera zooms back that you see the whole person, its a hostage.
