At the moment, I am toying with the idea of a 14 (ish) yr old girl having a stalker, but being unaware of it untill it is too late. I can see a high angle mid shot of a girl with her friends, laughing and joking, but in the distance a figure watching in the background. In the trailer I want to communicate to the audience that this stalker is always there, bidding his time and she is completely unaware. I think that maybe the whole film will be this build up to their final meeting. Possibly, she will meet him beforehand, unaware he watches her every move, be her sweet polite self and think nothing of it.
I am considering never revealing the stalker's indentity because I think that will create more suspense for my audience, because they can never quite see what he really looks like. I think that the girl should also be an outcast from the majority of society, but a have a small group of close-knit friends. She is the kind of girl that comes home from school and locks herself in her room and draws/listens to music instead of interacting with her family. She doesn't have major problems with her family, she just prefers to be alone or with her friends.
In the plot, there should be numerous things going wrong because of the stalker. Such as powercuts, phone lines down, mobile phone mugging etc, that ostracizes her from everything, leaving her with nothing so he van swoop in for his final act.
