The first idea I came up with was to have a old man walking home late at night, while he is walking he sees 3 hooded figures breaking into a house so the old man pulls out his phone to make a call but then he stops and it goes into the thoughts of him making the call, then going to the police station where he sees a man looking at him and then he gets frightened of the man so he puts his phone away. When he reaches his home he starts looking for his daughter, when he can't find her he thinks back and remembers the 3 hooded figures and picks up his phone.
This idea sadly doesn't fit with the age group we are going for but it is still easy to relate to because almost everyone has family so they can place themselves as the father or daughter and the characters can be changed to be a teenager and his girlfriend to fit the age group we are trying to reach.
Another idea I had was to have a child talking to his or her babysitter, while the child is talking they pull up a picture they drew. On the picture it has a child's drawing of a family with a child standing with her mother smiling and a man standing a little off to the side. The baby sitter is sitting with the child and then asks the child to explain the picture in an interested tone. the child points at the woman and says that's my mother and then says that is me. The babysitter points at the man and says ho is this, the child replies saying that's the monster.The babysitter looks shocked and stands up as the father comes home to take the child,
This idea forms a connection with the audience rather quickly through something that is easily reliable too and it has shock value, The problems with this idea is that we would need to find a child to play the part and it doesn't fit the demographic we are going for.This could be changed to make the characters older but I think it has more impact if it is a child, children sell.
