This is my Thriller Storyboard/ animatic, it discusses the main stages of which will be in my short Thriller. i am now going to annotate the stages above so it can be fully understood what my Thriller is going to be about:
Picture one: This is a zoomed in shot of the Actors eye, of which will be streaming with tears. This will confuse the audience, what i feel an effective opening scene. Suspense will start to build up at this point, the beginning of the story, which is related to abuse and misery.
Picture two: The next shot is a flashback, a wedding. This will allow the audience to comprehend the distraught persons life, but not enough to fully understand what is happening. At this stage, the relationship will appear to be loving, so the audience will not assume the reason the person is upset is because of their marital partner.
Picture three: The next scene will be of another flashback, of where the couple are happily joking and messing around freely with their friends. The first image will be ticking in the audiences head at this point because they will be confused about why the last two scenes are happy and upbeat. This may cause them to assume the partner of this woman has passed away and she misses him grandly.
Picture four: The story will slowly fall into place when this next image is seen, it will be of a husband and wife, having an argument over a boiling stove. The audience will begin to see that cracks are showing in the marriage and that the possible problem is linked to one of the partners reaching their limit and hurting the other. I feel at this point my film may prove effective, because the audience will be wondering if the woman attacked her husband and this is why she is so distraught or whether her husband physically abused her. There will also be the distraction of the pot boiling on the stove, tensity will begin to build up.
Picture five: The audience will then follow the woman running into the garden in a fit of anger, wanting to escape the argument, there will then be a flashback of the couple walking down the isle together, contradicting what was once a happy relationship.
Picture six: The Next image will help sum up what is happening, the audience will see the husband in the relationship take the boiling pot and releasing the steaming liquid over his wives arm. This shot will be effective due to mixed emotions, shock, anger, fear, revenge.
Picture seven: The Audience will then be lead back to the first image of the eye, but this time, something extra will be revealed. The reason for the woman's streaming eyes. A tracking shot will be used which will follow from the woman's eye to her arm, where a scar will be revealed.
Picture eight: The very last scene will be of the woman trying to escape the domestic violence she has silently suffered, running down the stairs, the audiences attention will follow the woman's relieved face as the walks towards the door, ready to escape.
Picture nine: The very last image will be of the woman opening the door, just when the audience thinks she has escaped an all to familiar face will come into focus. the shot will end on the mans angry unforgiving face and the woman's fearful expression. A uncertain ending, what will happen, will she escape, will he get his revenge?
