Our characters - Idea 1
Each of our characters are being killed by anonymous because they are public figures. It needs to be public figures that are killed because anonymous wants the deaths to go on mainstream news channels in order to get the Million Masked March known by all.
- Model or Actress - will be killed/tortured by having acid thrown on her because she represents vanity
- Politician - will be killed/tortured by having eye lids sewn together because he represents corruption and lies
- Musician - will be killed by being hung because he represents conformity
- Policeman - will be killed by being severely beaten and cut all over the body because he represents corruption
- Banker or Accountant - will be tortured by having his hand removed because he/she represents theft from the poor

Film's Cool - With Jesse and Kate (Script writing)
Kate Hardy and Jesse O'Mahoney came back to our college to help us improve our scripts for our horror trailer. This film's cool session was the most challenging as Kate and Jesse told us their opinions about our scripts and what must be changed. They did not hold back on us which helped us feel like actual script writers. This film's cool session enabled us to improve our scripts, it also taught us that trailers do not need to tell the story but instead capture an audiences attention so we must keep our dialogue short and relevant. Below are some images of the film's cool session:

Ideas for text that will appear during our Horror trailer
The corrupt fear him
The honest support him
The heroic join him
On the 5th of November 2013...
This is what the media didn't want you to know
How will our characters be killed/tortured?
Ideas for how our characters will be killed/tortured:
1) Sewn lips and eyes to portray the idea of those in government positions are liars.
1) Sewn lips and eyes to portray the idea of those in government positions are liars.
2) Cuts over body and throat to symbolise the cuts in benefits
3) Hanged from an important building/ home to enhance the building or homes relevance to the story
(This is a cartoon drawing to symbolise an individual being hanged because I found the more realistic images more disturbing)
4) Burnt body/hair to create an individual as anonymous and makes them featureless
5) Cutting of a person's tongue to symbolise lies
6) Cutting of a hand to symbolise theft
Synopsis One - The Million Mask March
On the night of the 5th of November 2013 in the busy town of London, thousands of people joined a march that is being supported globally by those who want to protest against corporate greed, a corrupt government, austerity and citizen surveillance. Dissatisfied with the media black out, Anonymous has decided to ensure that the Million Mask March achieves global recognition through being aired on main stream news channels through actions that are so gruesome, they will never be forgotten. This new found footage shows one mans obsession and determination to create a night that will be irreparable and be in the minds of those who live in London Town until their deaths.

The Million Mask March - Our Horror Trailer Idea
Russell Brand discuss his opinion of the British Government. The feelings of Brand are those shared by millions of individuals from around the globe. This shared feeling is what created the global mass movement 'Anonymous' organisation to create the million mask march.
We believe that the idea of civilians not being truly happy with what those in power is a good idea for a horror trailer.
