Shot Types ( With angles, movements, props and dialogue)

Within our opening sequence, we plan on using a number of different shot types that will be obtained through different movements and props.

The first shot type we are hoping to achieve is the CCTV Camera. In this section of our opening sequence, our camera will be acting as the CCTV Camera, so we will be setting our camera at various points from a high angle looking down on what will be the main character appearing to be 'fighting' his own shadow. We may have to use a tripod to achieve this. To give the shot the impression of a CCTV Camera filming, we will edit the shot in the editing software used after we have finished the filming phase.

As there is a contrast within two different moods within this opening, we will have to use a number of shots, however all of these shots will have an upwards pan adjusted into them. In one part of the scene, the main character is casually walking down the street, however we have decided to film the reveal of this character in a different way. We have split the main character's body into specific areas so we know how many shots it will take before reaching his head. Below is an image of this:

　

Once the camera reaches the end of a specific area (where the lines are), there will be a switch to the other footage that we are intending to include within the opening sequence. The atmosphere during the shots of the man walking will be calm, backed up with a calm and soothing soundtrack to incorporate that mood.

The only other shot that we will need to consider is the establishing shot that we are planning to open with. This will show a typical street in which the main character will be walking down. This will probably be the hardest shot to actually film as we would need a crane to film coming down onto the street. So another possibility would be to maybe use a map of some sort ( Maybe Google Earth) to zoom into the street from above and then switching to the filming from the camera. The only problem with this is that it may look slightly weird but it may work. At the moment though, this is only a suggestion.
