Shot List

This shot is a long shot of the main character. The framing of the shot will be similar to this as it shows he is lonely and isolated, also the space around the character means that this will be a perfect shot to place some titles over, however we have to make sure that the titles will be readable over the shot. We will use darker mise en scene and lighting to create a mysterious atmosphere as you won't be able to make out the identity of the character.

This is a close up of the main character, this is also a reactions shot to show he's scared and shocked. This is only one of a few times that the audience will see the identity of the character as we want to conceal his identity to make it mysterious. The framing of this shot will be fairly similar to this, the only thing we may want to change is if we want the shot to be a big or extreme close up.

This is a reverse low angle shot. This shot will be used when the character picks up the item, this will be used rather than just a regular shot as it means that the audience cannot see what the item is, this will make the audience ask questions and speculate as they don't know what the item is. This shot will also help to reinforce the mystery that has been building throughout the opening sequence.

This is an extreme close up of the character on the phone, this again adds to the mystery and makes the audience ask questions as they don't know who the character is or who he's on the phone to. We will keep the framing the same as we want to conceal the identity of the character and by using an extreme close up it does this. By concealing the identity of the character it makes the audience want to watch on as they want to see their questions answered.

This is a mid close up of the character putting something in the bin. In the case of our opening sequence the character may not be putting something in the bin, but he will be performing a normal everyday task. This shows to the audience that the character is just a normal person and makes the audience relate to him. Again the characters identity is being concealed to add to the mystery.

This is a close up of some feet running. This shot will be used to show that the character is panicking, thus is running around. The framing of this shot will be the same as here as it doesn't reveal the identity of the character, and it also leaves room for the titles to be placed over, most probably over the floor as it is one colour so the titles will be easy to for the audience to read.
