Shot list

      One of the most subtle parts of a film is the camera angles and the way those angles influence the viewer's perception of the movie. For example, shots from low angle give the character an impression of power and angles over the shoulder make the viewer feel like they're part of the film/conversation. 

 

Long shot

      Our title sequence begins with a shot looking down the Pier, a low angle as our Protagonist walks away from the camera. 

Eye-line match

      As she notices a picture on the floor, we thought this shot would enable the audience to understand that something just blew up against her feet. It enables the audience to connect with the film.

Over the shoulder

      This shot enables the audience to feel part of the film as they are able to view the picture Amelia just picked up and see what she sees.

Panning Shot

      When Amelia reaches the end of the Pier we use a pan to move from left to right as she looks out to the water. 

Close up

       A close up of Amelia's face enables the audience to see her shock and disbelief of the photo that now has a scratched out face.

Panning shot

      A slight panning shot of Amelia as she turns around, with her back to the Pier only to find herself unable to move forward because of the figure stood in front of her.

Over the shoulder

      We thought with the aim to involve the audience, this shot would work best. They are then able to view the figure standing in front of Amelia. 

Title shot

      We aim to finish with the title: 'The Remaining' being written on the screen, as if by the ghost in a old fashioned hand written font. At the moment we are considering doing it ourselves, yet are not keen on the idea of the hand being visible, so may just look into titles on Final Cut Pro.
