Idea for final project

My idea for my project would be a story based around a very disturbed chracter. Although on the outside, "Dave" is a regular academic student, he hides a psychopathic alter ego from his friends, family and teachers. The opening of the movie could be show the character going through his daily motions, showing him getting ready for school, the normal things. However the theme would be offering an insight into the characters thoughts by having him narrate his thoughts asd he goes through this.

In an opening of around 4-5 minutes, the audience would be able to get an idea of just the kind of psychopathic character this is. As his anger is silently surpressed but described in his thoughts, intense music could play in the background which would really add some sheen into the scenes. A sample of the intense music used to illustrate his thoughts can be viewed in the link I found below, preferably using the first minute or so of it





 <----May need to edit parts out

Other significant chracters can be given clear introudctions, as I like the whole idea of black comedy in films. An example of this could be the introduction a few characters were given in the film "Inglorious Bastards". I wouldn't exactly imitate the fonts and styles used as this may obliterate any seriousness from these scenes, however I would use thew idea of adding mini titles and a screen freeze to introduce the character, as seen below


Maybe a sleek silver or black font would be more acceptable when introducing characters.

You can see the idea of an intense psychological scene here, a clip taken from the film, "American Psycho". The importance of this is the monologue into the characters persona as he is constantly outdone by his colleagues.
