Individual narrative ideas - Miss Georgiou

The narrative sets out the way in which the clip itself flows. It can be used to portray various emotions and conventions that can effect and engage the audience. In addition to this it creates a story and a structure to way the film goes.

 Ideas

• Suicide
• Flash backs 
• isolated park, bridge, about to jump off
• stalker, forces her to want to commit 
• plot twist, a kind women makes her change her mind
• women gets killed 

Mes en scene

This may consist of an isolated setting running throughout the sequence as the victim is to be seen on her own highlighting her innocence and vulnerability. There will be 4 scenes throughout the film. The first being the main scene showing the present tense, this could be located on a bridge in a park showing the girl about to commit suicide. There will also be 3 flashback scenes. The first will be in a forest on the way back from school, emphasising how young she is. The second will be in her home comforts showing her vulnerability. Then the third will show the victim in an alleyway, emphasising the danger she is in. In addition to this the mes en scene consists of the presentation of characters within each scene. Our antagonist(Steve) will be presented as a mysterious and deranged character. In order to do this we will use a dark hoody to keep his identity hidden and position him to show his deranged state of mind as he follows the young girl. Our main character and victim (Brittany) must be presented as being innocent and vulnerable. The ways in which our mes en scene shows this is through the use of costume. She will often wear light coloured clothing that might even be younger than seen at her age group; this could be done to elaborate upon her innocence.

Conventions

• Death/knife - this is seen as the likeable protagonist (Carol) dies. It is highly conventional to a thriller, suitable in inflicting the shock factor of the genre upon the audience. 
• Male/ young girl antagonist and victim - This is very conventional, used and created by Alfred Hitchcock it is an effective way to built suitable relationships between the characters and the audience. The viewers feel sympathy for the innocent girl and fear towards the overpowering man; this furthermore engages the audience.  
• Enigma - Built throughout the clip using a plot twist and a hidden identity. This is highly conventional to a thriller as it engages the audience and builds suspense leading up to key events with a film.

Characters
Brittany - victim, young girl... She is the victim and is being stalked and tormented by Steve, the antagonist. She is shown to be innocent and vulnerable.
Steve - antagonist, older man... Steve is our male antagonist, he is seen to be stalking Brittany until she becomes suicidal. His identity and reasons behind the deranged stalking is kept away from the audience, adding to the enigmatic theme. He murdered Carol for an unknown reason
Carol - protagonist, friendly women... Carol is the older friend of Brittany that offers help in her dire situation. She is killed at the end of the sequence, therefore creating a plot switch which results in an enigma for the audience at the end of the sequence.
