Intentions for our film

I (Jake) last week watched the horror film Halloween and Richard watched A Nightmare on Elm Street. Both of these horror films are slasher films and in both of them there is a powerful killer who can't be stopped and they both where some sort of mask. In Halloween the killer wears a type of clown mask and in Nightmare on Elm Street the killer wears a mask that makes his face look scarred.

Both of these killers are males who look like they are middle-age men. In the opening to our film we would like our killer character to be a male teenager. In the opening to our film, we want a female actor to be cradling a baby crying, in the corner of a room. We then want to see her placing the baby somewhere in a wooded area with a clown mask and wrapped in some shorts. And then, in the future (when the baby has grown into a teenager) we would like to have the victim (the mother) being stalked through the woods by the stealthy killer who wants revenge on his mother for leaving him in the woods. For our costumes, we want our killer to be wearing a clown mask and tattered and torn shorts. Also, we want the female actor to be wearing scruffy clothes to suggest that she is poor, therefore she cannot look after the child.

At the very beggining of the opening, we want it to be set in a shack or some sort of abbandoned home, and then we want it to be mostly set in the woods. Throughout the opening sequence we want the lighting to be fairly dark.
