Title: The Slayer
Narrative:
Starts off with a sound bridge of the train(tracking) and then there's the shot of the typical "dumb blonde" partying girl, who wakes up uncomfortably on a bench after falling asleep. She looks around very slowly, taking her time to realise that she had fallen asleep,and now is alone in the dark. She then quite a while after "realising" the time, and that she should be home, reaches into her pocket to find a text from her mother (close-up of phone), the text from her mother worries her, and she rushes to her feet instantly to get "home". What she doesn't know is that someone has been watching this attractive girl for quite some time.
As she walks across the pathway, she hears the sound of the swings moving, so decides to turn back to see what it could back to see what it could be. As she turns forward the killer appears in front of her , charging instantly at her with a knife, so she screams and runs off into the dark forest, when she could have just rushed down the local pathway in front of her. The killer manages to catch up with her and stab her brutally in the stomach multiple times. He then places her against the tree, but we don't see this happen, we just see the shot of the girl dead against the tree.
Then it changes to the detectives in the office, where the detective chief takes off his hat and walks in to sit at the computer desk, at the same time the detective assistant is there printing out the article of the missing girl. Where he then highlights her name, and then the phone rings telling them they've found a location for them to go to, so the detective chief puts down the phone fast, and they begin to get ready fast. Detective assistant then places the article on the board by pinning it up, before walking out the door, and you hear the sound bridge of the door close.
Then it goes to the killer entering his house, switching off the light, and then rushing up the stairs.

Audience:
Our target audience 15-30 year olds, this is because all the product placement that are placed in there for the advertisment which is aimed for that age range. From our research we found out that horror/crime genres are aimed at teenagers and adults, because the story plot may appeal more around that age range, as well as some materials might be inapropriate and too complex. Younger audiences may also be encouraged to do bad things and this would be because of their lack of understanding. On the other hand, adults are more trustworthy and sensible, aswell as older teenagers.
