Preparation for pitch

Me and my group had discussed various ideas for our thriller opening and had decided to develop on a plot about a child being kidnapped in a park.

Descriptive Development on plot/Main Storyboard
  1. A Shaky secret shot behind a bush of a mother and child walking into a park in a distance.
  2. The child resides itself to the swings while the mother strolls around the area.
  3. The child sitting on the swing, kicking their legs and singing while holding a lollipop.
  4. In the corner of a shot of the child, you see a man standing watching the child in a distance.
  5. Interesting slow pace shots of man walking to child.
  6. Shot/Reverse shots of child and man while he walks over to child.
  7. Shot of man putting his hand on child's shoulder
  8. Child looks straight at man smiling
  9. Shot of mother turning around calling child, finding her child is not at the swings anymore. She runs to the swing finding a card saying the title of the film.
