Shot List for our Thriller Opening

Shot 1: As the girl begins to run into the graveyard, a point-of-view shot is used to make it feel as if the audience is the girl and they get the same sense of fear that the girl is getting.

Shot 2: The next shot shows the girl skidding to a halt and then quickly spinning round to look at something behind her. A medium shot will be used here so we only see half of the girl and some of her surroundings but not too drastically.

Shot 3: Another medium shot is used to film the boy as he slowly walks towards the girl. The camera zooms in ever so slightly and slowly to give a slow yet dramatic effect. He then begins to talk to the girl telling her that he's going to get her.

Shot 4: We go back to the medium shot of the girl who gasps and the camera then rapidly does an extreme closeup of the girls eye. A flash can be seen before we see the next clip.

Shot 5: This clip shows a long shot of a roundabout in a playground spinning by itself. The camera is greyed and dreary to give a dark flashback effect.

Shot 6: The camera flashes again and the clip stays the same as a long shot but we very briefly see a young boy spinning along with the roundabout. This is the boy that died in the fatal accident when the girl and boy were both kids. He is the boy's brother.

Shot 7: The camera flashes again and we again see the long shot of the roundabout spinning without anyone on it again.

Shot 8: The camera then rapidly zooms out of the girl's eye and we get the same medium shot of her before as she still gasps and pants with fright.

Shot 9: There is then an over the shoulder shot filmed over the boys shoulder and we can see the girl. He then says a couple of things to her and turns to leave.

Shot 10: The camera then shows a long shot of the boy walking out of the graveyard.

Shot 11: For the third time, we get a medium shot of the girl as she stands there for a moment before speeding off camera in the opposite direction the boy had been walking in.

Shot 12: We then get a panning medium shot of the girl as she runs towards the exit of the graveyard.

Shot 13: The girl quickly rushes out and bumps into her friend in a medium two shot.

Shot 14: We then get an over the shoulder shot from the girl as her friend puts her hands on her shoulders and gently shakes her, asking what's wrong and why she's panicking so much.

Shot 15: The camera then flashes again and we get a closeup of the girl as she quickly sits up in her bed, gasping and panting as she recollects her thoughts.

Shot 16: We then get a long shot of the girl as she sits in her bed and begins to realise that she was having yet another dream.

Shot 17: We then get a medium shot as the camera slowly zooms into the girl sitting in her bed as she begins to cry.
