single camera production ideas



Single camera production draft ideas for ‘Purgatory’.

Purgatory
·       Guy dies at the start. Mix in footage from POV when being hung with other content quick short cuts. Like a horror film.  
·       Guy wakes up in Purgatory, finds himself sitting opposite to a mysterious man with only a desk between them.
·       Mysterious Man welcomes guy to Purgatory, and explains the only to get to heaven is to amend his sins through confessing. 
Possible Confessions 

·       Murder - "Reasonably easy" - Alfie suggests rope to strangle X person.  
·       Robbery - House (X climbs over garden gate to get into house and break in and steals expensive items in bag) 
·       Kidnaping - abducting one or more people to add tot he story of the plot
·       Domestic Violence - Beats wife 
·       Suicide - Cannot live with what was committed, kills self by hanging or overdose. 


 Locations
