Unhinged rehearsal

We decided that it would be best to try out a lot of different places to find out which settings world best, this lead us to use 2 main places one being the side of a class room and the other being a small office. The side of the class room wasn't very efficient since it didn't look legitimate. Whereas the office looked plain and simple just like a therapist room

The Pitch for our movie

This is the pitch for the Thriller movie. In this pitch we explain how the movie fits our demographic. To find out the audience we went out around town asking people of a to figure out what our age demographic likes.

Choice of name

We found it slightly difficult finding a suitable name that wasn't already taken by famous movie. Names such as "Psycho" and "Identity" came to mind since our narrative follows the story of a psychologically damaged person who is struggling with his memories.

Those movies both are very twisted and have a deeply psychological approach at our genre of Thriller 

We had ideas of other names such as:

Unstable 

Unattached 

Damaged 

Production Days

We decided to film on curtain days and share the camera in equal terms making sure that we get the most out of the camera.

The days that are marked with a red dot are days that me (Alex) would have the camera, that meaning that I had a whole for days to record the needed footage for our movie. The dots that are blue are days where someone else would have it so that they can record the other parts for the movie this meaning that we all would get time to use the camera

Unhinged Narrative.

The narrative of our movie follows the main character Ryan. Ryan is a psychologically damaged young adult who is being haunted by his past of his father. In the past Ryan used to be beat by his father and ryan's mum soon after his father left decided to blame Ryan for him leaving.  This being found out slowly at the begging of our movie. It starts of with Ryan applying to see a hypnotherapist to leave his memories in the past. Over the course of the movie Ryan only gets worse with his mentality and starts slowly going insane; this causing him to become violent and "unhinged" from reality. Eventually all the anger her has it let out on someone (this being either his mother,father or Dr. Philips). We decided to leave it as a cliff hanger since this would make the audience thinking about who actually was killed and if there's a possibility of a sequel. This being a marketing technique used commonly in horror and thriller movies.

Unhinged flash back

In our group we were split into two for the begging when properly putting together our Narrative. This flash back was agreed upon in the end since it seemed to give suspense and tension to the movie. The flash back's intention is to give away a little bit more of the narrative and give a sense of pain that the main character had to go through.
