Final Idea (Group).

COMA - Title has been used before in a 1978 Thriller by director Michael Chrichten

First 5 seconds of black, heavy panting.
Boy running down stairs. camera panning / rotating 360
(Between floor titles appear in shot)
Continues going down stairs, camera carries on panning
Boy runs out of stairway up to camera (Close up on face)
Zooms out to be in the hall (Shaky fast forward thingy)
A boy is standing in a big hall in hospital pajamas, long shot of boy in distance.
Shot back up to boy, Confused facial expression
Reverse Shot to other side of hall, long shot with chair in corner, girl in chair, head down.
Chair moves towards boy direction(Up to camera) in short cuts.
Boy frightened covers face. (close up) dutch angle
180 Degree shot back to the girl
Boys hand reaches for girl, Mid shot, hand comes across screen.
Face comes from other side screaming loud

Story would continue to have the boy being in a coma in a hospital. Wierd things start to happen to him that related to dreams when in his coma.

The target audience for this idea would be mature youth as this is the average age for most horoor movies (15-35) This target audience is also much easier to get feedback from as they always use the technology we would be viewing our media on and also we are surrounded by them. The narrative also reflects what gender we are aiming at. Since it is a horror it is generally aimed at boys, buyalso the fact we use female characters emans that females will aslo be attracted, this is a key element as we do not want to exclude the female audience.
The rating our movie would be given by the BBFC would be a 15. Horror scenes will be kept to 'Strong threat and Menace' situations. 'High Gore scenes will unlikely to be accptable' therefore will not have many of them. Strong langauge will be invloved but the worse words e.g 'Cunt' will be avvoided. Sex will occur in the full movie but no full sex scenes are acceptable for this certifacte.
Mise en Scene will be important. Blank walls to indicate that the character is lost, chains can give a spooky feel to the scene, dark lighting will give a creepy atmsphere and will give tension to the audience. Clothing will be important as it will reflect the characters attitude E.G. The girl is in black showing she is evil.
