Swot Analysis – Imprisoned

Main concept

Elliot Roberts is a common house burglar and has recently been monitoring a high

class area. This is a key point in the film where we see Elliot takes one step further

as a criminal where he becomes a rapist and a murder. Maya Sharma is 17 years

old and is a victim, parts of the plots is made to relate to current affairs in the real

world. Maya’s mum and brother leave to go to the shops leaving Maya on her own.

Idea 1

Elliot Roberts walks through the area where he sees Maya’s mum and brother

leaving the house. At this point he sees that they have left the door open. He walks

in a discrete manner towards the house waiting and making sure that no one is

around to see him enter the house. As he enters the house, Maya is in her bedroom

oblivious to what is happening down stairs. After having a good search down stairs

Elliot makes his way upstairs at this point Maya hears a little noise and presumes

that her mum and brother have returned. Maya and Elliot both cross paths as of this,

Elliot in reaction runs towards her to prevent her from making a reaction. At this point

Maya is terrified and fears for her safety. The clip ends on Maya being tied up and

Elliot closing the door

Idea 2

Elliot Robert is in Chigwell (location where Maya’s house is) and he is coming to

monitor the area to plan out his next break in. At this point Maya’s mum and brother

have already left the house (we do not see this in the opening). As Elliot walks past a

few houses he notices Maya’s front door has been left open. He is curious and

decides to enter the house, the only thing he has with him is rubber gloves. He

enters the house and starts to look around; at this point Maya is up stairs taking a

nap. Elliot then makes his way upstairs and notices Maya’s door slightly open. This

is the point of disruption in the narrative where Elliot then enters the room, rips the

bed sheets of while grabbing Maya’s face. It then fades out from here where we see

Elliot walking out of a forestry area

will cause us to be marked down

the predictability

film

the atmosphere created throughout the

start

required to get a good amount of shots

teachers and past students who can give

tips and teach us skill before filming

standard of our production
