Trepidy

I have come back and the storyline and planning for the the new idea I have created a written synopsis for my new idea: Trepidy.

The trailer would start with me and two of my friends, excited that we have a place at university and happy that we're done with exams. After watching a few horror movies one of my friends (Jack Collier) decides to tell me and Andrew ghost stories just as a bit of fun. As Jack tells the story, flashbacks will occur in the trailer of the man in the woods.

There once was a teenage boy (about 19) who liked to explore and camp in the woods, but suffered from a severe psychological illness which grew worse overtime. He was then taken into care for treatment but this didn't help and the boy ran away and lived in the woods, his clothes ripped and his flesh rotting and decaying. One night a gang of youths decided to burn down the forest and as they were messing they found the boy and decided to beat him for his illness, but this only angered the boy and he turned savage, violently killing the youths in the fire. Now damaged, he found some bandages to disguise his wounds and burns. Now every year, the day he was killed 3 teenagers go missing. In Crowthorne. In the woods

As that day approaches, Jack disappears, and so it is up to me and Andrew to find him before it is too late, which will be the main synopsis of the film. The next couple of shotswill be during the day, and will be around the woods where I notice the crosss on the ground, and this added mystery willcreate tesnsion and suspension.

I will use a variety of camera shots such as over the shoulder, two shots, point of view shot, close ups and wide shots, as well as low angles.


"The Axe-Man" is the pending nickname or alias for the killer but this name may change over time.

This Trailer would mainly be set in two locations: My house and the woods near where I live, with majority of the trailer filmed at night, and a range of props such as matches

This trailer has a better storyline as I have planned it thoroughly more than my first idea, but some footage will be reused but I feel I have enough time as my trailer won't be similar to a short story
