Slowly but surely...

Paty and I got together today and decided we really needed to crack down on what exactly we were going to do for our film opening. We watched a bunch of horror movie opening scenes, but actually ended up hating most of them.  Some gave us some ideas, though. In Halloween (1978), the scene is seen through the eyes of the killer (who just so opens to be a little kid... very creepy), and we thought this would be an interesting POV to put in our film.

We finally began finalizing our plot (don't take our word for it, though, it's still subject to change) and storyboarding some scenes we have in mind. We started discussing the actual filming of the project, and decided on filming at Markham Park and maybe even Tree Tops Park, which are both the perfect scene for a terrifying murder.



To get this all done, we have to have actors, so we recruited some friends who are up for the job. We decided on some names of our characters, who honestly aren't that important. The Top 10 Stereotypical Horror Movie Victims include the talkative girl, the comedian, and the couple. We're going for our first victim(s) to be a couple, which adds to the intensity and scariness of the killer because he can handle and kill two people at the same time. We also created a little to-do list to track the basics of what's left to do before we can start filming. I'm excited to see what we create!
