The same woman's face, staring directly into the camera, either repeating the same line over and over again. (something to do with fear)
Or, she's saying a monologue from a Shakespeare play, (also to do with fear)
Having the screen behind the audience will create a presence of someone being behind them, and the feeling of someone being behind you, is a typical stereotype of horror.
This will be putting a new level of fear into the audience that a normal film cannot do.
The juxtaposed calm voice over the frantic right screen, will also create

Storyline - Right screen
Follow a woman home from a shopping trip, starts of exactly the same as the left screen.
As soon as her apartment comes into view, the screen turns black and white, as we get closer and closer to the lift in her apartment, the music is becoming more and more intense, almost like she knows about the fear that’s coming, yet she carries on walking.
As she steps into the lift both of her friends disappear (shows she feels alone, even though she's not)
Screaming into the camera, close up shots, acting possessed, like the fear has taken over her body, loads of cut shots, jump shots, shaky camera.
Close up shots and macro shots at the beginning to build suspense towards the lift.

Storyline - Left screen
Follow a woman and her friends home from a shopping trip.
Arrive at her apartment, get into the lift whilst talking and giggling with her friends.
Arrive at her floor, and she will make a left turn and walk into the Right Screen.
(She will look calm, collective, modern, and show no fear whilst riding the lift.
High angled, mid ranged shots will be used to show that nothing particularly edgy or scary is happening.)

Basic Idea
For my video project i will be doing an installation. A video installation is a contemporary art form that combines video technology with installation art, making use of all aspects of the surrounding environment to affect the audience.
The idea for my installation will be to have 2 TV screens in front of the audience, and one TV screen behind the Audience.
The left TV screen in front, will have what's happening in real life on the screen, and the screen on the right, will have what's being held up inside, almost a metaphorical interpretation of fear.
The TV screen behind the audience will have someone saying a monologue, this will will create an ery atmosphere.

Rational
Everybody has a fear deep down inside, that not everyone knows about, and you might even feel embarrassed about it. But that feeling that this fear makes you feel is overwhelming, yet you still keep it inside, and don't tell anyone around you about this over whelming fear. Yet it carries eating you up inside until you know your safe.
"Fear sometimes stops you from doing stupid things. But it can also stop you from doing creative or exciting or experimental things. It can cloud your judgment of others, and lead to all kinds of evil. The control and understanding of our personal fears is one of the most important undertakings in our life." - Helen Mirren
