We showed our teacher our first draft of the storyboard that we made. She gave us some ideas on how to adapt what we did into a better film opening. Here are some of the possible changes she gave us:-
Main character - Charlie. Dismissed from army - what did he do? (This could be revealed throughout the film)
Killer - Mysterious, unknown identity. (Found out by Charlie later on in film)

- Make the killer a smart, well spoken, educated person.
- Don't include a murder in the opening scene
- Keep the characters/killer unexpected
- Make the main character a mixture between good and bad, not a clear-cut good guy. e.g. Jekyll and Hyde.
- News report on US army experiments
- Charlie is experimented on, he turns out to be the murderer (not intentionally).
- Subtle hint in the first 2 mins that tells us that something is not right with Charlie.
- Set in 1960s? 60s music in background to set scene? Result of 60s experiment
