7. Mood Board

8. Real Text
• Kidnapped (2011)- this is where we got the idea of
making our film back-to-front; having the kidnapping at
the beginning.
• Catfish- the film Catfish helped us to come up with the
idea of using social media within our kidnap and how
people can pretend to be someone they’re not over the
internet.

9. Idea for the
opening...
The opening credits is going to be black, flashinging
police lights edited on top.
Edit a pre recorded 999 police call into the background of
credits.
sirens are faded in background
