Film pitch and padlet response

Film pitch

Title: Sick Mind

Sick mind is inspired by films 'The eye' and 'Unborn'. Its about several women who are suffering from a mental disorder that they inherited from there ancestors of Nazi experiments, one woman foresees the mental problem and seeks answers and a cure. Little does she know... there is only one thing she can do.

Our film follows basic conventions of the horror genre, the film is based in dark creepy woods which is surrounded by murky water.its a mixture of paranormal and physiological demonisation
Our audience survey suggested that a phsycological thriller was more appealing and had the most scary impact so we have made the basis on this production on that.
We are focusing on handheld camrea movements and quick cut shots to build an intence and fast scene.The indecation that this is a phsycological horror and there is a clear mentaly ill person will be shown through screaming and fitting of the charactor.
Our films begins with a small title sequence introducing the producers and directors of the film. (Mary and Leah productions)

The scene begins rapidly with a young woman running through the woods screaming and going physiologically insane, there are a number of quick cuts and fast panning movements, there will be a disorientation effect added on in the editing process to make the scene seem blurry and wobbly.
The woman will fall to the floor in traditional horror film style and begin to go insane as her body bends and breaks. she lets out a huge screams.
The woman begins to cough and then it is clear that she is dead, it is clear that it is a mystery how she died as the camera pans away, the title of the film appears suddenly in white and black writing.

The film would continues as a physiological mystery as this death happens to several other people. There is the one woman who sees the danger and realises she is next, she tries to unravel the problem and break the chain by looking through history books and meeting the sufferers and their families  There turns out to be a correlation as to why the women are suffering from this, they all have a degenerative link to the phsycological problem dating back to the world wars in the early 18th century's from experiment conducted on her bloodline by the Nazis.

The woman finds the answers through discovery and chance she is shocked at the out come and try's to delay and find an alternative to what she has to do but only killing herself and her first born child is the one and only gruesome solution. She cannot let the demon phsycological problem kill her otherwise the chain will proceed to carry on and affect others life's including her daughter.
