I turned to a friend to bounce ideas off of with my story telling project. I have come up with two ideas.
The first idea is of a girl who has been kidnapped, she is in some sort of shed or even perhaps some sort of remote shelter in the middle of no where. Their is this man who visits the victim once everyday to feed and water her. You never see the kidnapper always sholder shots/mid body shots focusing on the victim. The girl would be tied to a pole or to something in the shed but you can see she has made every attempt to escape with things being out of reach from the her feet and chew marks in the rope. The girl would constantly flinch everytime the kidnapper would go near her, but he cleans the blood from her stained skin. This would be the first turning point as the kidnapper isn't as bad as we first thought, you could also say this is the hook?

interesting idea... not sure what you describes works as a turning point though. end of act1 should a problem posed and the reaction to that is the turning point..
think about who the girl is, who the kidnapper is.
erm, i have been think that he could leave her untied and as he leaves he leaves the door unlocked; she is to scared to leave as she doesn't know where she is. Or perhaps she could try running away but she doesn't get very far before the kidnapper catches up with her? I didn't realise their are so many varables to consider while ironing out jthe story so to speak.
