Idea 3- 999

A teenager is driving in a car on the road at night and picks up a hitchhiker. Ten minutes has gone by and the hitchhiker has not said anything to the driver. The driver is concerned, pulls over and asks him to get out of the car and check the tyre and then drives off without him to eventually uncover that he has left his bag in the car. The driver yet again pulls over, searches through the bag and uncovers photographs and a bloody knife that he has now got all over his hands. The hitchhiker was aware of this, called the police, who then track the car down and the man driving the car is then arrested for murder. The case proceeds whilst murders carry on happening by the hitchhiker. He is falsely accused. The film ends with the innocence of the driver being proven by the lawyers investigation and he is released, whilst he walks out of the prison cell we see the hitchhiker pass him by as they swap positions. The jail cell bars are closed on the hitchhiker as he winks and smiles at the driver leaving the prison.

The opening scene begins with a wide shot of the driver who is a man listening to loud music in his car in which he sees a person at the side of the road wave, he pulls the car over to the side of the road to speak to the hitchhiker, when we see the hitchhiker enter the car, this being an establishing shot and then a close up to the man outside as the window roles down. They drive for what seems a long time and I could then use a fade into black editing skill to show time passing. The car pulls over with a mid shot and a close up to his hands on the steering wheel. The hitchhiker gets out and there is another mid shot of him as the car vanishes off with a close up of the smoke on the tyres as the car is moving so fast. There is then a a mid shot of the hitchhiker with the smoke in the foreground, making him look mysterious as there is not a lot of detail of his face shown just darkness and you can just about make out a smile and a wink in his facial expression. The end of the scene is a short duration shot where there is a close up to the driver looking at the bag.
