Intro ideas
November 03, 20161.
Intro outline:
A man sets up a sniper on top of a building or out of a window. We see what he sees through the gun's scope
, with cross hairs on the screen. He's looking at a football match (for example) focusing on different people as if searching for his target. Whilst doing this, he's making sarcastic and sadistic comments about the match, imitating a commentator. He locks on to a target, says 'he shoots' - the screen goes black - 'he scores'. The title comes up and we hear a crown cheering.
Plot:
The film is about match fixing in sport, and when it doesn't turn out the way the fixers want, someone needs to pay the price. The job of the sniper man is to eliminate the people who fail to meet the demands of the fixing, and some people are in need of eliminating.

Intro outline:
An average man is sitting on a sofa in a living room, eating fast food (eg. pizza or burger). The TV is on in the background, with a news report of a series of brutal murders done with a weapon of some sort (eg. a hammer). The light from the TV is shining on the man's face as the lights are off. He hears the front door being unlocked, casually stands up, grabs a bloody hammer that was not shown before and heads towards the noise. The door opens and a thunk is heard as the screen goes black.
Plot:
The man on the sofa is the villain of the plot. He's trying to avenge his family by murdering all of the possible suspects - even though most of them are innocent. The thunk you hear at the end of the intro is him being killed, not him killing another person - but the audience doesn't know that. The person who kills him is the focus of the film, trying to hunt him down.
3.
Intro outline:
Similar to the second, but the news report is about decapitations, or bodies found with missing limbs. The man gets up at one point, goes to the fridge and opens it to find limbs and a head or two. He grabs a can of coke and walks back to the sofa to carry on watching the TV.
Plot: The man on the sofa is again the villain, but the rest of the film is the police trying to figure out who did these murders and why, then tracking him down before he tracks them down.
