Shot List

We have created a shot list to help make our filiming run more smoothly, this list will enable us to check if we collected all the shots we originally wanted, whilst allowing us to have additional shots from the filming process; below is our shot list:

• pan/360^
• close up
• medium shot
• extreme close up
• over the shoulder shots
• POV Shots
• high angle

StoryBoard

Before our filming, we produced a storyboard to help us visualise the acts in the sequence. This helped us whilst filming as we could follow the story and know what shots we wanted. The shots we have drawn in the storyboard will create a suspensful atmopshere, and without the storyboard, we would not have been able to visualise it.

Production Meeting #4

In our fourth production meeting, we focused on our main scenes in our opening sequence (how many and what they include).

1. Our first scene includes a voice over of the main character, remembering what happened. We all decided that we will do a 360 degree shot circling the character as the voice over plays. 
2. Our second scene has been decided that it will start the flashback of the happenings. This scene will include the character walking up to the barn and through the door into the ground floor of the barn, looking around. 
3. Our third scene will be of the character entering the upstairs room, looking around, finding the mysterious book and reading through it. She will then hear a noise and look up and see the barn door open/ close and hear footsteps coming up the stairs leading to her.
4. Our last scene, the screen will cut to black as the upstairs door opens. It will then fade out from black either to the single rocking horse or the ballerina in the jewellry box. This will be where our main title appears.
