Our first shot will be a tracking shot of Lucy walking down the corridor. We have decided that we are only going to show the lower body in the shot as we believe that this will build up suspense as we do not want the face of the person being revealed yet. We are also going to use a static camera on the floor showing the footsteps down the corridor which will show the direction of the characters movement. We are going to have natural lighting so it is not to bright and not too dark. We don't want any music in this part of our opening as we want the sound of the footsteps being made on the floor is more defined. Lucy will be wearing smart clothes with shoes that make a loud noise when walking. The mis-en-scene will be a plain corridor with no colour on the walls. It will be very simple. We will expect this shot to last for around 10 seconds.
For our second shot, we are going to do a wide shot of the door, showing only the back of Lucy as we still do not want to reveal her face. The shot will show the full door and the full of the back of her body. Again we are going to have natural lighting. In this shot, the sound will begin to build up. We are going to introduce a quiet soundtrack that will begin to build up suspense for the door being opened. Again the mis-en-scene will be plain not very colourful. This shot is expected to last around 5 seconds.
For our third shot we are going to use an extreme close up of Lucy's hand grabbing hold of the door handle and turning it to open it. We have decided to use an extreme close up as this shows that this is a key point building up suspense. Again we are going to use natural lighting to stick with the theme. The music in the previous will continue and get progressivly louder as the door handle is turned.
For our fourth shot, we are going to introduce the inside of the interogation room so we meet two of the characters. The room will be dark with low key lighting so although the characters can be seen, their faces are not fully clear. We still do not want to reveal the other character (Lucy) yet and therefore, the other two characters in the room can only see a shadow of her from the door. The character that is being interogated (Lewis) will be wearing a vest shirt and jeans to show that he is not well kept and to give him the criminal appearence. The other character which is the criminals lawyer (Alcione) will be wearing smart clothes similar to Lucys; suit style clothes. The mis-en-scene of the room will be very plain and kept dark to build up the suspense.
For our fifth shot we are going to have a static camera and apply a filter to the camera. We want it to appear as if it is an actual camera in the interogation room, recording the interview from a security camera. We are going to have the time and date in the corner of the screen to give the true effect of a security camera. There will be no sound in this shot as we want the suspense to build up. We see Lucy walking through the door and Lewis and Alcione sat at the desk. We still do not reveal Lucys face as we still want the suspense to be building up.
Our sixth shot is when we finally see Lucys face. She walks to the table and sits down with the other two characters. There will be a wide shot of the three sat at the desk. The lighting will be low key with the only source of light being from the desk lamp. There will also be a tape recorder on the table. The only sound we will use here is a small amount of dialogue from Lucy directed at Lewis.
For our seventh shot we are going to use a point of view shot from what will appear as one way glass to add to the effect of it being an interview room. It will show what is happening in the room. The lighting again will be low key, still with only the desk lamp providing the light. The view of the scene will be rather limited and the dialogue will be muffled and not well heard to give the effect that it is being recorded and passed through to the room behind the one way glass.
Our eighth shot is an establishing shot of Castlefield where we are going to film the murder scene. It is going to have natural lighting from the outdoor environment and ambient sound in the background, such as wind, traffic noises, dogs barking. The area in Castlefield that we are going to use is a field area with dips in the ground and a path. There is also a tall brick wall which we will be using for the murder.
