Inspiration

Minority Report (2002)
We were inspired by the idea of having a known routine way of avoiding danger. In the case of Minority Report Tom Cruise is avoiding spider robots by lowering his body heat by submerging himself in an ice bath. This got us thinking about ways for our character to stay hidden from the thing outside the door.

Final Idea

First draft of idea:

Inside the apartment we see a grubby rusted door with dead bolts on it you hear footsteps and heavy panting coming from outside. The door is slammed open and a Women runs in slamming the door behind her. She bolts the door shut and pulls a fridge on its side blocking the bottom of the door. We start to hear knocking in the distant with gunshots in the distance with shouting. She then pulls a couch covered in old canned food and plastic bottles up towards the door propping it on top of the fridge. She then fumbles around the apartment looking for something. She then finds a old baseball bat and stand in front of the door and holds it ready to swing. The door then shakes being knocked and the screen cuts to black.



Final draft of idea:

You see doors on a long hallway it then stops on a door and a Women runs into frame, running into the door that the camera has stopped. There is shouting and screaming coming from the doors. She runs into the room and pulls a fridge in front of the door so it’s leaning on the wall. In the distance you hear banging on the door then you hear the voices get cut to silence. She runs around tearing the room apart looking for something. She then finds a box with instructions she takes out a device and wraps it round her arm. She holds the box looking at the instructions on the back. She leans back against a wall looking at the device on her wrist and the back of the box controlling her breathing. We see under the door a shadow come under the door and a cut back to the heart beat monitor slowing down.
