pitch 1 - the reaper

my idea for the film opening is to have a static camera shot of the ground and hold it for about 20 seconds. before this have establishing shots of a forest/ grave yard type setting. have titles over the screen through the shot until the action takes place. after about 20 seconds have a hand punch its way through the ground and make a growl kind of sound to create confusion as to whether or not this person is good or not. 


then cut to a group of teenagers camping out or sitting on a bench close by. their chilling and talking to each other when one starts to stare ahead and he can see a silhouette of a man. i want the man to have long hooded clothing and i don't want to be able to see his face either. this will create mystery. after the teenagers have seen the man in the shadows. i don't want there to be any dialogue except for the teenagers to be afraid so possibly panting and heavy breathing. then the man says, "don't worry, I'm not hear for you, I'm here to fight for you"

something like that, so that's the first time you know that this man isn't bad. then when he leaves the teenagers say, "who was that"    "the reaper"

then the title will come up.
