Storyboards (initial ideas for an opening sequence)





This storyboard is based around the theme of intrusion. In it we see a man find a knife covered in blood. He is panicked by this. At that point the phone rings, and he goes to answer it. There isn't anyone on the other end of the line. As he is on the phone, trying to find the person at the other end of the line, we see a shady character on the other side of the window, watching him. We then see the same shot but from the point of view of the villain. The camera tracks back to the same "knife" shot, but this time the knife is missing. Its then that the villain stabs the man in the back as he's still on the phone.

I liked this idea because it was simple and easy to achieve with minimum problems, as it requires two actors, a knife, some fake blood, and a telephone.
