My First Thriller Idea

My first thriller idea is set in a busy tube station in London.
I will aim to film it in a documentary style so it appears to be realistic in order to thrill the audience more as the situation they witness will appear to be a possibility in their own lives. The lighting will be bright, like a vivid memory, and I will edit it so it’s skipping a lot, almost dreamlike.
The finer details would be left uncertain and I will do this by leaving things out of focus, such as the faces of certain characters to create a sense of mystery. It will be a restricted narrative because we know the child gets taken, but we don’t know who by because the memory of the faces is blurry.


The ‘distinctive’ item which four of the characters wear in the trailer will be something like a badge or they’ll all have a tattoo or a gold tooth, something which bonds them together as a group, but still subtle. These characters will have dark clothing on whereas the children will be wearing lighter colours. The mother will wear something in between the two, suggesting she’s not totally innocent and there’s a reason why her child has been taken.
Here is a story board:
