Style: not like any other Crime Thriller, instead of using a boy as the main leader of the bad guys, we’re using a girl *point to the picture*. If anyone has been to the cinema quite a bit, you may have seen “CyberBully”, we want our series to look similar to that film because it’s based online, with hacking. We wanted it to be based online so it would relate to our generation who is mostly online. Our line of bad guys are gangs which join together to sell drugs. The main bad guy started at the bottom, but is now at the top.
Mise en scene: Setting: *point to the picture* we wanted our scenes to look like this, so that the bad guys would be able to hide in the shadows, hide beyond the mist of the fog. This would give the audience suspense as they wonder what’s in the shadows, what is about to jump out? Props: computer to show the hacking taking place, or putting the evidence together, and we could use drawings of the criminal from the witness’ description. Costume: formal wear, the rich would wear office work uniforms, whilst the gangs would wear casual everyday wear with the occasional leather jacket. Lighting: low key lighting which would build tension as it brings horror, and the audience would have limited view of the scenes, so they wouldn’t be able to see who was hiding in the shadows.
Narrative 1: someone who was in the background, comes into the light and is now seen as the main bad guy. All the crimes would link up in some way, we would like to use a garden where the crimes go in a pattern and they start from the garden, but then they get advanced and go to hacking, then to drugs and back to the garden. At first, the garden seems just like any other garden we all have at home, but it’s not what’s on top that matters, it’s what underneath. Quite literally, underground is where all the bad guys come together to hack, whether that’s the Government’s website or a girl’s Facebook page. I mean who would suspect all this to be happening from just one garden.
