Photoanimatic:
Storyboard:
In this photoanimatic we had the kidnapper putting a bag over her head, and we tested out, but it looked visually awkward, and had too much of a health and safety risk, so in the reshoot of the key scene, we changed the idea to a napkin with chloroform; which was safer to shoot and still looked effective.

Development of our Narrative
The film begins with the lead character Terry, narrating the events of his life. He explains that he has done a lot in his life, and he would like to share with the audience. [like a subamrine narration] He explains that the film is a love story, describing his love for Jennifer, which establishes the romantic tone of the trailer and film. There is then an introduction to Jennifer; ''this is Jennifer'' ''been to school together'' ''always been in each others lives'' --> ''Want her to be in my life forever''
The first dramatic element of the film (although a slight one) is the fact Terry is due to go on a date with Jennifer to the cinema. He describes how everything in his life was looking up for him, until she doesn't arrive. He attempts to call her multiple times, but she doesn't answer, he believes she is avoiding him. The following day Terry is upset, and then he receives a call from Jennifers parents, speaking in an accusing tone, asking if he knows where she is, as she has been missing since the time they were due to date. ( Her parents are blaming Terry for her disappearance, as he was supposedly the last person to see her as they were meant to go on a date ). Emotions are running high, and Jennifer's parents are suspicious of Terry, despite his claims that he didn't meet her. After the call from Jennifer's parents, the police come to Terry's house and arrest him, as they too suspect he has something to do with Jennifer's disappearance.
In the police station, Terry is interviewed and during the interview is shown video footage of a man kidnapping Jennifer. After answering the police interview questions, Terry is released on bail.
Terry later receives a call from Jennifers phone, telling him to meet them in an alley at the end of his road, noting that he has some information about Jennifer. The call includes a threat that if Terry tells the police, or brings anyone, that he won't see Jennifer again.
When Terry meets the kidnapper he introduces himself as Damian, He realises that Damian is the man from the CCTV footage & instantly becomes angry, wanting to know where Jennifer is and about her well being. He asks Damian what he wants with her and he reveals he wants her to love him, Terry argues with him and becomes violent and agressive but Damian overpowers him. Damian walks off, Terry following inconspicuously, all the way to an abandoned building, where inside he finds Jennifer, tied up in the corner. When he finds her she doesn't react the way he thinks she would; she is terrified of him. He is under the impression she is psychologically damaged because of the abduction and imprisonment. Terry tried to reasure her, telling her he's going to phone the police and unties her and she backs away from him disorientated. As Terry calls the police, Jennifer is shaking, clothes ripped, looking 'disheveled'. When the police arrive Terry gets arrested; trying to protest to his arrest, he again becomes aggressive and violent, telling them they should be arresting Damian, and asking where he is. Meanwhile, a paramedic puts a blanket around Jennifer comforting her, and taking her to an ambulance.
In the police station again, he argues that they should be arresting Damian, but the police reveal that there is no such person -as does Jennifer. This is when the realization comes that Terry has dissociative identity disorder ( and that it was him who kidnapped Jennifer, with no and he had no recollection of it. ) and it will then be decided in court whether he is imprisoned or put in a psychiatric hospital.
Cuts to Terry, ''The next few months were hell for me...''
The film ends with more footage of Terry in hospital revealing that the whole thing was a flashback, of past events, all leading up to this moment.
Back-story: Jennifer & Terry were best friends, but Terry has always had feelings for her. They had attempted to go on previous dates, but Jennifer had stood him up, hence why when he gets stood up again, he doesn't react in a major way. Jennifer only accepts going on dates with him, because she feels sorry for him, hence why she keeps standing him up.
So on their most recent date attempt, Jennifer doesn't show up again, and so Terry goes to find her, and when he does he kidnaps her, so he can keep her wherever.
