FMP Basic Ideas

FMP Ideas

These are my really basic ideas before there is any detail added for my Final Major Project

Idea 1

Shooting the Entire Project as a first person object for example a skull filming the entire project through the eyes of a skull leaving the audience guessing what the object is whilst telling the story of everyone around it. Idea is the object is something illegal and someone want to take it from The owner.


Idea 2

Dark room with some men (not sure how many) sitting round a wooden table all dressed in there best (like a 70s American gangster) discussing a case of money and how only one will leave with it the all decided there's only one fair way Russian roulette they place the gun on the table and spin one by one they die until 2 are left who have a climatic and off and spin the gun it points at a man that's clearly the dominant one he seems to calm about it the other guy picks up the gun and shoots but there's no bullets the main man then shoots a small pistol he walks over and picks up the case as he leaves the man he shot is choking up blood and says "cheater" before spurting more blood and dying.

Idea 3

(would like fog or rain) Dark outside a car pulls into view a mysterious man gets out he takes out a letter inviting him to a house he walks towards the house when he walks in its quiet and there's no electricity he uses a flashlight puts the letter on the counter and searches the house finds nothing he manages to short circuit a light into working the house isn't dirty but quite clean he sits on the bed the hears a noise opens the door and there's a silhouette of a girl outside who quickly disappears he decides to search the house again to be sure and he finds a blood trail (clearly not there earlier) he follows it to a dead rat in the garage the door quickly closes leaving him in darkness.

Idea 4

Serial killer horror set in a house in the dark: a man is being stalked in his own house by someone trying to kill him he ttys to find the killer before the killer finds him.

Idea 5

A man is left alone win the world he is the last human on the planet as he continues to search for a reason for this he begins to notice that maybe he is not alone as a mysterious figure is following his every move.
