Synopsis:
"Soya Blood" -
(name still not decided)
Catherine is celebrating her 16th birthday. Her parents send her out to pick up a few things at night. As she makes her way back home after collecting the things her parents had wanted, she gets bitten by a vampire.
(The vampire who
bites her is not shown)
She then becomes a vampire and returns home. At home there is
a surprise birthday party planned by her friends and family. She plays along for
a bit and celebrates her birthday. She then becomes really "thirsty" and pulls
aside one of her friends and drinks her blood but doesn't stop and her friend
dies; once biting her friend, a homing signal gets sent out (that she doesn’t
blocked out) to other vampires about 10 miles radius. Within minutes vampires
arrive and kill the entire party guests.
(Vampires not
shown; only the girl)
{The 2 mins
opening sequence will be up to here roughly}
The 16 year old is very regretful over killing her friend and
moves to Romania, Transylvania to live a life of a vampire but finds it
extremely hard and doesn't want to become a vampire however finds it hard to go
against what has become "natural" for her.
As time gradually passes, she meets a human boy and falls in
love with him. Her teenage hormones kick in but as well as her new 'vampiric'
hunting instincts. The vampire then stalks the boy and confronts him. He sees
her for what she really is and he gets frightened and tries to get rid of her
but she refuses to be put down. She becomes violent and kidnaps him and tortures
him. She then begins to play games with him (as in let him run away for a bit
but then chases him). Whilst he’s sleeping, she grabs him and bites him. She is
unable to control herself and drains all his blood. Once again she is very
regretful for killing yet another person who is close to her. She then walks
into the sun and burns to ashes. Unfortunately she doesn't sparkle, she
dies.
Research
Transformation of Vampires - The first step to the
transformation of becoming a vampire is the draining of the blood. A vampire
must drain you almost completely of blood by drinking it out. Then the vampire
must feed you his or hers blood (only a certain amount so that you change).
After that, the body goes through death and usually by the next nightfall the
transformation is complete and you are a vampire. However when the
transformation is finished you will have this strong thirst and must find a
donor and drink some of their blood. This is the typical steps to the
transformation of a vampire. Although in our vampire movie, we will be having
this transformation happening a lot quicker.
An example of a typical vampire transformation would be this
clip which is a scene from ‘Interview with The Vampire. As shown clearly in this
scene, the young man goes through the exact steps to the transformation of a
vampire.
Female Vampires - Carmilla was the first female vampire. She was stunning, seduced men all the time with her scanty tight clothing's, posture and seductive gestures. She has all the typical conventions of a vampire (such as pale skin, fangs etc) and as a result, female vampires in movies today are representing seductiveness and sexuality just like Camilla.
