Idea for film.

Entire film.
Narrative:
A local celebrity has got a stalker, and she gets killed, and there's an investigation to find out who the killer is... Throughout the film, there are clues as to who the stalker could be, many people are in the frame, however, you don't find out who the killer is until the end of the film.
Characters:
victim, murdered/stalker, police officers.
Atmosphere: spooky, eerie atmosphere.
Sub genre: crime and psychological thriller.
Title: Fixation.

Opening Sequence.
Shot list:
1.
Establishing shot - Long shot of the dead body in the forest
2. Over the shoulder shot - stalker in the photo room beginning to develop a photograph
3. Shot of the white board in the police investigation.
4. Zoom towards the dead body
5. Low angle from the side of the stalker
6. Police meeting about the crime
Continual flashes between all three locations.

References to the rest of the film
Murder, stalker. The dead body, the police investigation, wanted posters.

Mise-en-scene:
-Setting: forest, the dark room, police investigation room.
-Lighting: dark, low key lighting, no bright light.
-Props: whiteboard, photographs, posters, map
-Costume: police outfit, forensic suit
-Colour: dark, dingy

Sound: Non-diegetic voices, music; eerie - dubbed over the top (non-diegetic)

Camerawork:
When seeing the stalker, it'll be over-the-shoulder shots, and shots from behind so that you don't see their face. Zooming to the dead persons face. Low angles of stalker, high angles of the dead person.

Editing:
Fast paced, non-chronological, faded transitions,
