CASTING
Evie Gibbons (me):

Alex Elliott Simon Svensson:
The rapist/scream king 1 (victim)

Since this shoot will be taking place on a school trip to the greenscreen studio and it is very short notice for asking an actor to come, Alex Elliott won't be able to come and act in this scene, so I have found someone else who looks like Alex Elliott to act the role of the scream king 1/rapist 1.

FINAL GIRL

Evie Gibbons

After the first shoot of the rape chase scene with the actors: Emma, Alex and Richard, I thought I had all the footage I needed; but it turns out after looking at all the footage, I didn't have enough and some of the shots were wrong so this caused complications. Therefore, I had to message the actress Emma Elvang again, asking her if she could come to re-shoot some of this scene and she did not answer the message for a long time, she was not intending to answer the message at any point because she was being ignorant (she ignored the messages on purpose because she didn't want to come back to the same place and reshoot things). So, I have decided to change the actress to play the role of the female rape victim character because she won't respond to my messages meaning she won't come to the shoot. So, I will have to reshoot all the footage for the rape chase scene with a different actress, which will be me.

Also, I decided this because, it was not practical for me to keep going to Emma's house to get the exact clothes she wore in the rape chase scene.


MY CHARACTERS:
1. Jennifer

...

This character is the female rape victim who then turns into the female killer later in the film opening. I was influenced by the films Jennifer's Body and I Spit On Your Grave to call the female main character Jennifer. The main female character in I Spit On Your Grave is called Jennifer, she gets revenge on all the men who raped her, one by one. The killer in the film Jennifer's Body is called Jennifer also. 

...
This is the female rape victim as the female killer. With my killer, her motives are the rape. The fact that she was raped has completely traumatised her. She is extremely angry so she wants revenge on the two men that raped her, and all the people who are friends/girlfriends with them. You don't really see her face at all in the film opening accept in the lair, when you see her mouth when she licks the knife, it builds narrative enigma by not showing her face. The 'scream king' is 17 and this is anchored by the clothes that he is wearing, the scream king usually wears little clothing that is revealing.
...

2. Brad Storch

...

This character is one of the rapists in the rape chase scene at the start of my film opening. He wears black jeans, a hoodie, a green t shirt and black boots. He also has a stubble which has negative connotations of antagonist.

...

3. Stanley Miller

...

This character is one of the rapists who rapes Jennifer in the first scene of my film opening. He is the leader out of the two rapists, so Jennifer targets him first.

...
4. Guy working on the editing of the fake film (in the film) on the computer
5. Victim girl actress in fake film (in the film)
6. Director of fake film (in the film)

PITCH 2

WORKING TITLE
'Stiletto'

SYNOPSIS
A female kills boys who treat women/girls badly and also the girls who let boys treat them badly. The female killer hates how some women represent themselves as dumb and slutty on purpose.

FILM INFLUENCES
Jennifer's Body:
There is a female killer who kills boys because she was possessed by a demon. She lures them in with her flirty, sexy way of being and her looks, then she kills them alone somewhere. The idea of the victims being males is where I got some inspiration from.

Friday the 13th Remake:
The entire film opening of this is very similar to what I want to put in my film opening. The idea of cross cutting between shots of the lair scene and the scene in the forest of Alex (Scream King), Aubrey (Scream Queen) and Richard (Final Boy) walking to into the forest going to go camping is what I want to incorporate in my film opening at the very start.

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo:
I got the idea of a girl getting revenge on men who treat women badly from this film. Lisabeth Salander (the main protagonist) works with a male journalist to solve the many murders of some women who were also raped by their killer. I mainly took the idea of a woman having revenge on men for treating women the way they do (as lesser, as below them). I wanted that to be the main message of my film opening, that women aren't lesser than men, but that they can also be killers and overpower/dominate men the way men do to women; I wanted to go against the norms of the slasher genre where the killer is always a man and the victims are always busty, topless, sexually active women. I also decided to change the final girl into a final boy.

THE GROUP

I decided to work alone because:

• I think I can work better on my own
• I would get to keep my own original film opening idea. 
• I can film all the exact shots I want to film. 
• I find the decision making easier and simpler. This is because I found that trying to work with my classmate, Richard, would be very hard because he is very indecisive and couldn't decide or stick on one idea or decision.
