Inital Ideas: Alone

Girl wakes up in the early morning suddenly, close-up of her face. Window wide open, curtains fluttering in the wind. Close-up of clock and an establishing shot of the room. Gets up, closes window, turns into hallway.
Goes to find family, realising each window is wide open and curtains are not drawn -- No one in sight.
When she goes downstairs there is a high angle shot of her from the top of the stairs down, which then cuts to a close-up on her foot on the stairs.

In the kitchen as she calls out names, the radio is on but there is white noise, the phone is off the hook repeating the phrase "Please hang up and try again", the tap is running slightly, windows wide open. She calls but no reply, so makes her way into the living room, close-ups on her face, a high angle shot from on the stairs looking down through the banisters as she walks through the hall into the living room.

The television is on, however, there is no signal so it is just a fuzzy blur, volume turned up full blast, so only sound is again the white noise. Windows still wide open. A mid shot of her as she lurches forward to switch off the television. At this point the camera angles towards the screen, when the screen goes black after she turns it off, the audience suddenly see a figure standing behind her in the reflection, however, when it comes into focus after being blurred, it is a coat on a hanger behind the door.

At this point she is terrified, shouting urgently she opens the front door and steps out into the street. Hand held shots are used to contrast to the still frames when she begins to fast pace down the centre of the road, calling for help. High angle shots from top of buildings as she reaches the end of my road. (We could use the top floor of Waitrose car park looking out onto my street), this shot would make her look insignificant and of small importance when running along frantically.

When she turns onto the highstreet using an extreme shot from across the road and she swerves into view, there is no one in sight. We would film this in the early hours of the morning. She walks along the pavement, a distance shot, blending into a long shot, then mid shot, then close-up. As she stops and turns towards a shot, camera moves with her, she glances into a shop window, shot taken from a side angle to ensure it is not seen, however, there is no reflection.

Suddenly, film cuts to white noise and a blurred screen such as the television earlier.

Costume: Girl is around 15/16 so just in pjamas, maybe a hoodie. As she gets more frantic this should show through messy hair, maybe slight sweating, teary eyed etc.

Sound: It would be good to have some non diegetic music faintly in the background, however, so it is bearly heard or noticed. Maybe constant repetitions of a tap dripping or wind blowing.
The white noise is of huge significance throughout so it has to be loud in comparision to when she switches off the television.
