Idea 1 - Charlie




Idea 1

Title - Departure

Starts off with a short normality scene with bright colours, two friends smiling and laughing. Then it cuts to one of the two guys walking alone looking unhappy, dull colours, dirty clothing. (All throughout the beginning there are flashbacks to the normality scene.) He looks down and notices a note face down on the floor, he crouches down to pick it up and it reads "He's gone, You're next". He looks up and faces forward looking scared. An over the shoulder shot shows a man in dark clothing stood behind him. Our protagonist doesn't turn around and see him, he merely turns his head slightly to see him in his periferal vision. He starts walking to act as though he hasn't seen the man but can hear the man moving too. He starts to speed up. So does the man. They both brake out in to a sprint and start a chase scene. The protagonist sprints into a nearby factory, with the villain still close behind. They run though the factory knocking boxes and other items off the shelves, tripping occasionally. They reach the roof and have another small chase on there. Eventually they reach the edge of the roof to find our protagonists friend from the normality scene standing pointing a gun at them. The protagonist says "JAMES! SHOOT HIM!". The villain then starts to laugh and walks around to stand next to the 'best friend'  then raises his own gun, points it at the protagonist and says "Yes James... Shoot him."   Hear a bang and the screen instantly cuts to black.
