week 2 of planning

Shot Number	Shot type	Why
1	Establishing long shot	This shot would set the scene and allows the audience to become familiar with their surroundings. This would also give a sense of mystery and tension.
2	Close up of a significant or broken objects	This would set the mood that the place is decaying or what the secrets are behind the location. It would again add mystery and would heighten the dramatic tension.
3	Low angle shot of feet	To show the audience the camera crew are getting ready for their filming. Gives the audience a sense of mystery and adventure.
4	Point of view shot from camera crew	To show the audience that nothing is wrong and it shows them getting into their location by force showing that it is not easily accessible showing their vulnerability once their inside.
5	Mid angle shot of conversation and action	To make the audience feel involved and to let them know what is going on.
6	Reaction shots	To show the audience the characters reaction. It will give them feelings similar to what the characters are feeling at that time.
7	High angle shot looking down onto the documentary crew.	It will give the audience that feeling of vulnerability and showing them how vulnerable the camera crew are to any danger that may for come them.
8	Point of view shot from the psycho point of view	We have decided to put this shot in to show the audience what the psycho sees exactly through his eyes. It will give them a sense of involvement.
9	Pan shot of the psychos surroundings.	This will give the audience a sense of what the location looks like inside and his surroundings. It adds to the mystery and heightens to the tension.
10	Close up of the psychos face	This will show his emotion and we are using it as a shock tactic as we hope it will make the audience jump.
11	Tilt shot from bottom to top of a person	This is used to show dominance of the character and will make the audience feel intimidated by this character for the rest of the thriller opening.
12	Tracking shot	To show the movement of characters and objects. It helps to show the audience the bigger picture.

this is a shot list of my groups thoughts and ideas towards types of shots and why we will use them, this will help us stay on track and shoot a convincing conventional thriller opening. as our veiwers would like suspence and tension we feel planning the shots ahead will help us focus on creating this mood.
