This
is a draft of the shot types and camera angles I will be using throughout my
opening title sequence. I have made this flexible as there is a chance this may
change.
Grave scene
- Eye-level/ flat shot
- Close up of the word “DAD” on the gravestone
- Zoom out to a long shot to show Jimmy knelt at the side of the grave staring blankly ahead/ placing flowers
Jimmy and mother
together – devastation
- Eye-level/ flat shot: close up of Jimmy and mother (supporting each other/ hugging)
- Zoom in to just show Jimmy
- Match on action – tear rolling down Jimmy’s face the same tear seen dropping on the floor (close up)
Movement to
Manchester
- Low angle shot of the wheel/ the town hall
- Pan movement of the surroundings
- Long shot – shows mother and stepfather arguing in the window as well as Jimmy stood outside looking in and watching them
Jimmy and
stepfather’s relationship
- Mid shot – Jimmy curled up in a ball and shadow of man raising a fist
Jimmy leaving
- Establishing shot: walking across a field into the sunset
- Close up: view of a side shot of Jimmy’s feet walking
- Point of view shot: Jimmy looks back at his mother who is stood at the other side of the field
Establishing shot of
Jimmy’s new school
Meeting with the thug
character
- Long shot – thug laughing and pushing Jimmy around/ knocking folders out of his hand
Meeting the geek
character
- Close up: Jimmy typing a message to another character then presses send
- Cuts to another phone (the ‘geeks’ phone)
- Over the shoulder shot: “text Message from Jimmy” – opens text – replies
- Zooms out so the audience are able to see the face of the characte
The
geeks text: “Me too. Do you fancy tea at my house tonight?”
Meeting the pregnant
teen character
- Mid shot (ensure audiences can see the preg teen holding/ rubbing stomach) – Jimmy and herself laughing and talking
The final image
