Initial Idea.

Our idea begins in a darkened theatre with shots of a girls eyes looking scared and anxious. There will be a spotlight travelling around the theatre. Our female protagonist will then be changing positions in the theatre on each jagged cut. The last shot of her in the theatre will be her falling on the theatre’s main floor and looking up suddenly. Next scene is the same girl running through town’s backstreets in the daytime. Her costume will then become apparent and we will see her in a scruffy white dress. She will continually be looking back and when we enter Chinatown’s backstreets we will see a clown that is chasing her. He corners her down one alleyway and she struggles to find a door that is unlocked (all the while cross cutting between the two characters). She finally finds a door and in the darkness there is the faint outline of a man. As she leans in to kiss the man he disappears and she falls into the darkness. Which then turns into our animated sequence. A black background with green, blue or white horizontal, moving curves. She is turned into an opaque minimized version of herself in the chosen colour. She is being bounced around by the bass waves which will match the bass of the music hopefully. This will be cross cut with a scene of what we believe to be her and another male, who is not the clown, dancing behind a sheet, they are doing a mixture of ballet and street and it is going to seem very interpretive and emotional, they will be silhouetted behind this sheet. The lines of the bass will then straighten out at a downward angle and the animated girl will slide out of frame. The next frame will show the girl falling into shot; which will be our final location of Fletcher Moss Gardens. She will fall into a sea of tall grass in a new clean white dress. The clown is no longer following her. She catches a glimpse of the man in the darkness from earlier and runs towards it, she loses him but continues to run toward a lake where she finally stops as she sees him across the lake. Taking off her cardigan and letting her hair down she descends into the lake, her dress floating around her in the water. She swims over to him and gets out embracing him. As she embraces him he disappears and is replaced by a sad, young child, who is clutching onto her. Her dress begins to become stained by a variety of colours and when she lifts the childs chin, we are shown clown face painting smeared by the child’s tears.
