Shot List (Unfinished)

To ensure I have a sound knowledge of all the shots required to successfully create a clear narrative I created a shot list that directs the mise-en-scene and location according to the lyrics/part of the track that runs alongside it.
This will act as a guide for me when it comes to shooting and will ensure I obtain all footage required.



Sound = mise-en-scene = Location

·         Starting of engine, beeping of car horn = LOW ANGLE CLOSE UP lights of car turning on

·         First 4 seconds = LOW ANGLE traffic lights changing colour and passing cars = Bottom of Grapes Hill

·         Next 8 seconds = TRACKING SHOT out the side of a car, scenery shooting past = Anglia Square, graffiti-covered walls etc

·         Next 2 seconds = LOW ANGLE TILT SHOT of boy doing skateboarding trick = Cobbled street

·         Next 2 seconds = LOW ANGLE MID SHOT of group of boys messing around on wall = Wall

·         Next 2 seconds = TRACKING SHOT of boy running towards camera, dodging past person on street = Cobbled street

·         “Passes out on the back seat” = HIGH ANGLE boy slobbed on seat, waking up, rubbing head, looking about him etc = In car

·         Next 2/3 seconds = CLOSE UP of pint glass getting emptier (quick shots) = Pub table (Pub I work in)

·         Next 2 seconds = CLOSE UP (tracking shot or still?) of feet stumbling out of pub door = Pub doorway

Above 2 shots may be done in b&w to show flashback

·          “Saving all my best” = OVER THE SHOULDER girl brushing boys shoulders in mirror & kissing cheek, boy’s face is bored = Mirror in Ruby’s mum’s room

·         Next 2/3 seconds = LOW ANGLE TRACKING SHOT of back of boys legs walking away from camera = On the Street

·         Next 2/3 seconds = HIGH ANGLE shot of girl tugging boys arm and telling him off = Car

·         “Fearing that my face” = CLOSE UP 7 different quick shots of different parts of boys face, last one full face girl, looking angry

·         Next 3 seconds = LOW ANGLE TILT SHOT of skate board jump

·         Next 5 seconds = BIRDS EYE VIEW (with backlight) of boys jostling and messing around = Pub

·         Next 3 seconds = MID CLOSE UP of girl throwing arms about, angry = Poppy’s room

·         “Wandering round the top floor” = MID SHOT of girl pacing room, phone in hand = Poppy’s room

·         Next 2 seconds = CLOSE UP of phone to girls face/just phone

·         “Flaking walls like the” = HAND HELD TRACKING SHOT of girl trashing room = Poppy’s room
