Narrative of "Reckoning"


Narrative
  • The scene will open with a scene of a pair of hands holding a locket or some other object that can hold a photo. Maybe even a significant pendant of some sort something that will remind our main character of his loss.
  • As the hands slowly caress the object a narration will begin. The scene will sharply cut to flashbacks of a girl walking down a dark streeet. As she walks past an alleyway she is grabbed by leather gloved hands. The sound of punches being thrown and muffled screams is heard as the locket is caressed more. The sound of a knife is heard unsheathing (ie the clink of metal on a sheeth) and the screaming ends. (SFX used in this scene)
  • Most of this scene will be implied and the audience wont see the killing as it takes place. The scene will end with an arm flopping to the floor (possibly with a small amount of blood on it) as two figures run off quickly.
  • Scene will then cut to our main character, as narration continues, looking out over the city with from a tall building/ high point. The narration continues as he looks out over the city; "the scum of the city roam this earth, tainting it with their lowly lives..."
  • As the narration hits a key phrase such as "it is my task to purge this world..." the scene will cut to a glass box with a figure standing in it. The figure is grabbed by a pair of arms out of the view of the camera, implying another death. To show a change of time, this scene will be filmed later when it is slightly darker.
  •  The scene will then cut to our main character walking along a street and into an alleyway. He's approached by some muggers (3 people, Joe Kelly as the main mugger) who proceed to taunt him and ask him for his wallet.
  • Radriar raises his hand, the sound effect of a pulse of bass is used. Two of the three muggers fall unconscious and the main mugger falls to his knees in pain. The use of this sound effect will imply that he has been given some sort of power.
  • The lead mugger is on the floor obviously in pain and he asks "who are you?". From a low angle shot Radriar approaches and looks him in the eyes. As he does this the camera cuts to an extreme close up of Radriar's eyes. We see they are slightly red (contact lenses used) showing how he's not human. 
  • The camera will cut to a close up of Radriars hand as a switchblade is produced. The blade flicks open and the camera cuts to a black screen where the final exclamation of "I am Radriar..."is heard
  • Scene will end with an out of focus shot of a figure walking away and blood dripping onto the floor. 
  • Possible later events are the main character searching for and taking down the gang that killed his beloved. 
  • He will lay waste to everyone in his path, may also find someone similar to himself and join forces with himself.
