Synopsis of opening

For our opening we are taking the idea of vampires/monsters. The inspiration came from blade and underworld, Underworld particularily because it has a strong female lead.

The scene starts with a girl sitting alone (location is not yet decided) A voice over is heard of her asking some sort of cryptic question (E.G why am I here? Who am I? etc) Something that would be revealed later in the film. Wherever we film it, it should be outside, and try to do it when it's raining, hopefully around dusk.
As the girl is sitting alone there is the sound of rustling. This is when the scene starts to speed up as a vampire/monster of some kind appears behind her ready to kill but the woman is much faster and kills him first. This death can be shown by the reactions and some blood (red ink) dripping to the ground. The scene then begins to slow down again and the girl is seen walking/running away with the voice over going again with the same question cryptic question as before.

Any music used in the scene will be quiet and subtle, something to slowly build tension.

Location possibilties:
A garden
A childrens park (eery, cool and do-able)
A Green (parkers piece for example)

of these A childrens park is the best idea, it is creepy and would work really well, there are public childrens parks everywhere and if it is raining they will be empty.

The girl in sequence is implied to be supernatural in some ways, we may get our actor to wear special contact lenses to show this.
Titles could appear at the end of this sequence, just the title of the film though, not actors or anything.
A way to make the monster more creepy is to not fully reveal it's face, they may also have to wear make up. Make up would be very pale skin and shadowed eyes the way Tim Burton does a lot of his characters.
Doing the scene at dusk will make the lighting seem odd but we can always bring some lighting equipment to make it more visible.
