The Movie - Short.

This is a rough idea of what is going to happen within these 2 minutes, it includes a rough script, a few camera shots and direction.
[The story is a take on classic horror, it is set in the woods with a group of teenagers who get picked off one after another. However, rather than having a normal werewolf/monster scenario the reason why they’re disapearing is that they’re being “vanished away” by a demon shaped as a little girl to lure the teenagers away.]

A group of teenagers are walking in a large wood.
The camera appears to be looking through someone's eyes who is following them, hiding behind trees, walking slowly.
You can maybe hear slight breathing so you know theres someone there.
This is to resemble two things to confuse and trick the audience, it appears to be some form of monster or bad guy however the camera cuts to the group talking.
Kat - "So... shall we rest here for the night then?"
Jenny- "what here? but were in the middle of knowhere! there could be wild animals around or something."
The group laugh.
Character 2- "Well what did you think camping was?"
Jenny looks around, she starts to disconnect from the conversation.
Jenny hangs back a few metres whilst the others put down there things, there conversation becomes background noise as she looks around worried.
[Character 4- "She'll get used to it."]
Kat - "Here then?"]
[Character 2- "yeah sure, it's gonna get dark soon."]
The camera cuts back to the person watching them.. They move slowly up behind Jenny, the camera closing in whilst creepy music is playing. The person grabs Jenny suddenly, you only see the arms as it's viewing from the eye. The music cuts off.
She turns around relieved to see it was her friend but turns on him in anger and hits him.
"What the hell was that for?!... jerk."
He replies with "HAHAHA! oh god Jenny, chill, I was only messing with ya!"
"But still! I wish I never came on this damn trip."

Kat sees the two arguing and cuts in the conversation.
Kat- Jason! There you are sweetie! will you please help me find some wood for the fire with the others? Give jenny time to calm down, yano?"
Jason looks at Jenny and walks off with the group, leaving Jenny alone. She sits down on a log, folded chair floor etc. (depends what we can find.)

The camera shows the group walking away, talking and laughing then views jenny sat, looking at the floor in bordem. The voices of her friends fade and there is complete silence.
Suddenly there is the cracking sound of a twig. She turns her head to the direction then hears more twigs cracking coming from the opposite direction, she turns again whilst getting up, she looks around quickly and grabs a large stick off the floor. She catches a shadow running in corner of her eyes and faces it. Theres nothing there again.
Jenny- "This isn't funny guys! STOP IT!."
She hears a girl giggling from behind her. She turns and sees a shadowed figure pearing from behind a tree. She stares at it, unable to move.
Her friends returning from getting wood breaks her concentration, they're still deep in conversation.
Kat looks at Jenny and runs over and places her hand on Jenny.
Kat - "Jenny!? what's wrong? are you ok? You're so pale..."
The group stop talking and look at her.
Jenny -"You.. You.. came from.. over there... it can't have been you who.."
Kat - "Who what?"
Jenny turns to look behind her once more.
Jenny - "Someone was there.."
Kat looks up slowly to where jenny is looking, (The camera turns slowly with her and shows the empty darkness) nothing is there. The movie cuts off.
