The signal                icon in the corner vanishes as the Driver leans over to                    check the message when he pulls the steering wheel down,                  causing the car to swerve into a ditch.                                                                                                                                                                                        SCENE 5 EXT.

He looks at the damage to the car before looking              down at his phone and seeing that there is no signal. He                  looks around and sees a cottage in the distance with a light              on. He climbs over the fence and walks towards the cottage.

Is anyone there?                                                                                                            no one answers, he pushes the door open and walks inside.                                                                                                                                                                      SCENE 7 INT.

As the phone continues to ring he looks around and sees              a fire burning in the fireplace. He looks down and sees a                  scrap of orange cloth, with black text on it, to the side of              the burning logs. He can’t read the text so he places the                  phone down on the table as he walks closer to the fire. He                kneels down and sees that it’s a piece of burned cloth and                the text reads THX2187. The Driver remembers sees that                    number on the prison uniform of the Murder who escaped from                prison. He looks at the basket next to the fire and sees                  only a small log. A look of realization came across his face              as he turns towards the window. The Driver walks towards the              window.                                                                                                                                                                  VOICE ON THE PHONE (FEMALE)                                      Hello?

COTTAGE. MIDNIGHT                                                                                                                      The Driver runs back to the phone and picks it up dialing                  again, he holds the phone to his ear and listens as the                    phone rings.                                                                                                                                                            VOICE ON THE PHONE (FEMALE)                                      Hello?                                                                                                                                    The phone line goes dead. The Driver looks over at the door                and sees a shadow moving underneath it. He looks around the                room and catches sight of a hatch on the floor at the far                  end of the room. He quickly heads over to the hatch and                    lifts the door open as he lowers himself down. He turns and                looks back at the door through the gap in the hatch and sees              the door opening with a dark figure stood in the doorway                  holding an axe.                                                                                                                                                                                                                SCENE 10 INT. COTTAGE CELLAR. MIDNIGHT                                                                                                              He quickly close the hatch and descends the staircase as                  footsteps can be heard above him. He looks around the room                straining his eyes to see. He sees a small ray of light                    coming through a gap in the far side of the room, he quickly              runs over and sees a set of doors that lead back outside. He              pushes against the door and finds that they are chained                    shut. He hears the footsteps above start moving towards the                hatch and runs back to the stairs hiding under them hoping                not to be seen. Suddenly a large burst of light fills the                  room as the hatch opens and the young man can see the                      murderers legs as he slowly descends the staircase dragging                his axe down the stairs behind him. The murders reaches the                bottom of the staircase and slowly begins to search the                    cellar still dragging the axe behind him. The murderer walks              behind an old bookshelf and out of view. The young man                    quickly moves to the front of the stair case and runs up the              stairs.                                                                                                                                                                                                                        SCENE 11 INT. COTTAGE MAIN ROOM. MIDNIGHT                                                                                                            The young man emerges from the cellar when suddenly he falls              to the floor and is dragged back down into the cellar. His                screams can be heard as the sound of the axe chopping brings              them to a sudden end.

2 Minute Film Update

I was having trouble deciding which of my ideas to proceed with, in the end I decided to write a full script for each of the stories and show them to people on my course, the feedback was unanimous, they all preferred the 2nd idea with the lone driver heading home and breaking down on a country lane.

So this is the idea that I will be continuing on with, I will be editing the script a little more and then post it on here.

2 Minute Film Ideas #3

My 3rd idea for a 2 minute film came to me while I was sat in the cinema watch ‘The Last Jedi’. It had come to the scene towards the end when Luke faces off against Kylo Ren. And if you have seen the film you will know how disappointing this scene turns out to be. I spent the rest of the time in the cinema and even on the way home afterwards thinking how much better that scene could have been, which is what inspired my last idea, based (as star wars originally was) on Japanese Samurai films.

The story would be based around a Samurai who is sat at a camp fire cleaning his Katana, when a Ronin emerges for the forest. They sit and talk for a while before coming to the conclusion that only one of them can walk away from this camp. They both stand up and draw their swords as they stand across from each other, having a mental duel, before finally exchanging blows till the Ronin cuts down the Samurai and claiming his freshly cleaned sword as his own.

2 Minute Film Ideas #2

My 2nd idea for a 2 minute film came to me when I was driving home over the Christmas break, I had been working late and had a 2 1/2 hour journey to get back home, which meant I’d be arriving after midnight. The road I usually take home was closed due to snow so I had to take a country lane to bi-pass it. It was at this point that my mind started to wander. Conjuring up scenarios of what might happen it I ended up breaking down, or just needing to stop for any reason. The back doors on my car don’t lock, which meant that someone could easily get into the car. Fortunately this didn’t happen and I got home alright, but the idea stayed with me and inspired my next idea which is about a young man driving home late at night when his sat nav takes him down a country lane, he ends up breaking down and needs to find a phone. He sees a cabin off in the distance and heads towards it. And in true horror fashion the cabin ends up belonging to an axe murder who has recently escaped prison. The rest pretty much writes itself.

2 Minute Film Ideas #1

My first idea for a 2 minute film, revolves around a blacksmith who is forging a sword. The animation would follow the blacksmith as he studies the designs, chooses his materials and would then show him forging the blade and constructing the pieces before finally presenting the sword to its new owner.

The Sound Collector Poem

A stranger called this morning Dressed all in black and grey Put every sound into a bag And carried them away

The whistling of the kettle The turning of the lock The purring of the kitten The ticking of the clock

The popping of the toaster The crunching of the flakes When you spread the marmalade The scraping noise it makes

The hissing of the frying pan The ticking of the grill The bubbling of the bathtub As it starts to fill

The drumming of the raindrops On the windowpane When you do the washing-up The gurgle of the drain

The crying of the baby The squeaking of the chair The swishing of the curtain The creaking of the stair

A stranger called this morning He didn't leave his name Left us only silence Life will never be the same
