Initial Ideas: Storyboard #1


1.There is a group of friends, the protagonists of the trailer, seen walking through an isolated and dark forest in search of a place which they have been previously told stories about.

2. Flashback of the friends discussing the place they are in search for.

3. The friends go inside and explore this place (An abandoned church). Somebody is watching them.

4. They find nothing at their destination & make the decision to leave... what they did not realise is what was actually going on & they were being watched all along...

5. There is multiple shots of the protagonists each being dropped to their houses, yet still being followed and watched.

6. There is a shot of a completely deserted neighbourhood, no cars, no lights on, nothing. A silent and isolated surburbia. There is also a shot of the character who inhabits a house in the empty street, parents are going away and driving away from the deserted area.

7. 2 of the friends are shown entering the house which is located within the secluded neighbourhood. As the doors closes, people outside the house are seen within the shadows, wearing masks to disguise themselves.

8. The protagonists are sitting in darkness, with only the flicker of the tv set to highlight their faces and the background behind them. A person in a mask appears behind them in the shadows.

9. We learn, in very brief, of the dark backrgound of the trailer's antagonists.

10. Numerous shots of the protagonists being hunted down by the masked anatagonists by running, hiding etc.

11. Captured & confronted by their antagonists, we see them attempt to escape, manage to do so when the enemies turn their backs, yet we are unaware of their fate & whether they ultimately manage to escape.

12. The finale shot of the trailer is someone hiding in the shadows & then one of the masked people appear, a massive scream is heard and the title appears.
