After extensive research and brainstorming, Daniela and I came up with what we think will be an amazing opening for a horror/suspense film.
The overall idea for the film is for this girl to slowly have things go bad for her and get worse and worse. At first, she thinks it's just things that happen and that it's happening to everyone, but slowly, she realizes that it's targeted towards her. And through these terrible occurrences, there is a girl who just happens to always be near her when it happens. They get closer, gaining each other's trust, just for the main girl to realize that this new girl is the reason everything is happening. The new girl is doing this because she is obsessed with the girl's boyfriend and will stop at nothing to get him, even if it means hurting the girlfriend. The girlfriend soon finds out she is a psychotic girl with a history of being obsessed with people's boyfriends and hurting others.
To start it off, a close-up shot of a gloved hand is going to appear and will be grabbing two items, a thumbtack with string attached and a picture. Then, it is going to show that said hand will be placing it on a board and a zoomed-in tracking shot of the string along the board. A series of shots like this one will appear one after another but with different pictures and items. For one, instead of just a picture of the young girl and her boyfriend, it could be a picture of just her from afar or a screenshot of her social media or even of her house. It could also include items of something she used with a label and such.
After the mystery person sets the final item on the board, the camera will trace the red string, landing on a picture of just the girl. Then, it zooms out, showing the entirety of the board and that all the strings lead back to her. Side note: During all these shots, the credits will be slowly appearing but not including the actors in the film as those credits will appear in the second scene. After that, it will cut to a black screen with the title that we are yet to come up with.
