Brainstorming for a new Idea

We made it our mission to all come up with three different new Ideas or elements for a thriller opening sequence until our next lesson.

The three Ideas I came up with were:

  1. A two strand sequence of a school quire performance and another student preparing for a mass shooting.
  2. A character about to hang them self in a room and a second parallel strand of the police driving to the house, raising the question if they will be there in time. Devices like goodbye letters could be used to create a background story for the character of introduce the themes of the film.
  3. The last think I thought was affective as an element was claustrophobia.
From our different ideas we carved out the key element of 'beating the time'. Next up we all agreed that this is most effective when used in combination with being locked in or away from something, being trapped

We then created two versions of our Idea. Having two options and letting Matt and Lucke decide on what Idea to work from would have us prepared incase they do not like one of them, since we all wanted to avoid having to start over again.
The two ideas are based around detective being trapped in a Car, with different spinoffs:
  1. The Idea we developed through out our brainstorming session is based around a Detective being locked in a car while the antagonist is poring gasoline over the car and the detective tries to brake free before he lights the fatal match.
  1. The idea is focused on the detectives character, who wakes up in his car and then starts to realize multiple signs of a bomb set in the car. These signs would be indicators like:
  •  the severe problems with radio signal 
  • his watch is 'going crazy' , etc.
