Treatment

The opening sequence starts off with a live news report explaining the recent kidnappings. This helps to evaluate the story so far to the viewers so it was clear and easy for the audience to understand the rest of the clips.

We then fade to a black out and the camera fades back to a long shot of a wall, of which is covered in newspapers all featuring the kidnaps. A series of super imposed shots then appear on screen which close ups of the previous news stories.

The camera then fades out to another long shot of a hooded man staring at the paper covered wall. He is tense and still apart from some slight movement of him touching / admiring the papers. This is done to introduce the audience to the kidnapper who is one of the main characters in out film.The camera zooms in to the back of his head and snaps to a series of flashbacks. These are made up of both the kidnapper running through a wood and different children he has kidnapped.

During the past 2 scenes backing music will be played.The camera then blacks out again taking us in the title sequence. This is made up newspaper articles in which our names are edited into. The camera pans across the appropriate article, then freezes and the name will fade to red. This will be repeated for all four group members (Caroline Lauren Natalie and Robyn)
The sequence finished with an extreme close up of the kidnapper’s eyes and a voice over is in the background. (This will consist of a few line read by the kidnapper)
