1. Shot List

Date: N/A
Name of Production: Meadows End
Cast Crew:
Liam De costa as Hayden
Aaron as Ace
Syan as Lilly
Meet Time: N/A
Place: Room N6
Shot Number - 1
Type: Establishing Shot
Location: Park. We decided to create the establishing
shot in a park because swings were essential to start
our trailer. We want to capture not just the empty
swings but also the sound of them creaking in order
to create a dystopian yet dramatic beginning, so
climax can begin build up during the rest of the
trailer.
Camera Position: Static
Analysis of camera movement and Action: We will us
e a static shot in order to capture a still image of the swings moving.
Shot Number – 2
Type: Close Up. This is really effective because a close up shot used in this
specific way, can set one of our most significant scenes of the trailer as
clearly as possible.
Location: Local Pub. We wanted to convey the
next shot at ‘The Grey Horse’ pub because we
wanted to ‘personally identify’ that our
characters are all working class.
Camera Position: Zoom.
Analysis of camera movement and action: We wanted to use a zoom
because it is the only we can capture a close up image on the name of the
pub, which is more effective than any other camera movement. Since we
will use a zoom shot to establish the pub, the audience will begin to then
2. realize that the pub is a usual place of socializing. Therefore, they can
begin to emphasize with what happens next within the pub.
Shot Number – 3
Type: Mid-shot. We will use a mid-shot for this scene because it is the perfect
way in which we can capture the two main protagonists, as well as the setting of
the pub in the background.
Location: Inside the Pub. We wanted to use
the setting inside the pub to add more
meaning to the previous zoom shot to
establish the name of pub.
Camera Position: Static.
Analysis of camera movement and action: In this shot we will portray
Hayden and Lilly flirting in the pub. A static camera movement is most
useful since we only wanted to capture a still image of the two
protagonists enjoying themselves but to make the scene more affective,
we want to include the whole set as well from the static movement.
Shot Number – 4
Type: Close up. Hayden will place his hand on top of Lilly’s hand to
connote a sense of romance between the protagonists. This shot type is
most significant for this scene because we want the main focus to be on
the romance between Hayden and Lilly, which the hand gestures suggest.
Location: We will still shoot inside the Pub as the
scene has not changed yet.
Camera position: Eye-level
Analysis of camera movement and action: We will
still use a static camera movement so we can put the only main focus on
the two hands.
Shot Number – 5
Type: Extreme Close up. We decided to use an extreme close up to portray
the foot on Ace. This shot type is significant in our production because
since we only give a shot of the antagonists’ foot it can give our target
audience a sense of mysteriousness. Who is the antagonist? What’s his
role in the scene?
3. Location: The location of this shot will be
outside the Pub, as the antagonist (Ace) gets out
of his car.
Camera Position: Eye-Level
Analysis of camera movement and action: We will also use another static
shot to capture the image of the foot. The foot is the only significant
aspect of this scene, stationary in its position because it is supposed to
add more dramatic effect.
Shot Number – 6
Type: Long Shot. This will be used in order to represent Lilly walking
through the swings we saw at establishing setting. A long shot is most
useful in this part of the scene because that way we are able to capture
the whole setting of the park as well as Lilly’s movement.
Location: The same park as the establishing setting. We
deliberately wanted to go back to this location to
connote that the most important disequilibrium of our
trailer is the park.
Camera Position: Eye-Level
Analysis of camera movement and action: We will use our first panning
camera movement starting from left to right. This was so we can put clear
focus on Lilly’s movement, as she walks through the park, the point of
disequilibrium.
Shot Number – 7
Type: Broken Frame Shot. This was used to overlap the swings with Ace
walking past the swings.
Location: Same setting as the establishing shot.
Camera position: Eye-Level
Analysis of camera movement and action: We will use a tracking shot within this
part of the scene to capture Ace’s movements as he walk past the swings and
aims to attack Lilly, although we show this later on in the trailer. A tracking shot
4. is very useful in our scene because we will be able capture his every movement
as he gets and closer to his victim.
Shot Number – 8
Type: Long shot. We will use this shot type to capture Lilly and Ace as well
as the whole setting, where both characters propose in a clear format.
Location: River Thames. We wanted to use this location in
particular because we felt it was such a romantic setting,
especially for a proposal.
Camera Position: Eye-Level
Analysis of camera movement and action: We will use
panning camera movement for this specific shot. This is because we want to first
of all capture the river and then turn left to capture Ace proposing to Lilly.
Shot Number - 9
Type: Low Angle. We decided to use this shot because we wanted to get a
clear focus of the character’s facial expression and body language as he proposes
to Lilly.
Location: River Thames. We wanted to use this location
in particular because we felt it was such a romantic
setting, especially for a proposal.
Camera Position: Low angle
Analysis of camera movement and action: We
will use a ststic camera movement. This is because we can capture a clear view of
the character’s body language.
Shot Number - 10
Type: High Angle. This shot type was essential to capture a clear view of
the female character’s happy reaction, as she is surprised by the proposal.
Location: River Thames. We wanted to use this location
in particular because we felt it was such a romantic
setting, especially for a proposal.
Camera Position: High angle
Analysis of camera movement and action: We
5. will use a static camera movement. This is because we can capture a clear view
of the main character’s body language.
Shot Number – 11
Type: High angle. We will use this show to not capture the female
character but the atmosphere as well. The main focus why we will use a high
angle shot is so we can capture her walking through the park again.
Location: Cedars park. This location is key for this
shot because this is the point in our trailer where a
flash forward of the same location takes place.
Camera Position: High Angle
Analysis of camera movement and action: We
will use a static camera movement. This is because we can capture a clear view
of the main character’s body language.
Shot Number – 12
Type: Close up. This shot type will be used to capture the prop of the
phone in particular, as well as the main character. Using this shot type will
ensure that the audience will become inquisitive on what is significant about the
phone call? & what will happen next?
Location: Cedars park. This location is key for
this shot because this is the point in our trailer where a
flash forward of the same location takes place.

Yet again, we will use another static camera movement to capture the
charcter’s action as she walks through the park, holding her phone.

Type: Long Shot. This shot will be used to capture an eye-line view of the
pub fro, over the character’s shoulder.
Location: Admiral Hawke.

this section of the scene because we want to capture a still image of the
antagonist of the trailer and the next location, hence adds to the disequilibrium
to our trailer.

Location: St. Ignatius Church. This location is necessary to make our
trailer a success. It is the point in the trailer where, because it will be shot in a
wedding, has the most utopian atmosphere.
Camera Position: Eye level

will be a static shot. This is so we can capture the character walking down the
church isle. The main focus on the protagonist and her happy moment, so a static
camera motion can portray that perfectly.
Shot number – 15
Type: Mid Shot. We wanted to use this specific shot type in our trailer
because we want to focus on capturing everyone inside the church, to make the
scene look more like a realistic wedding. As the main focus was already on the
protagonist on the previous shot, we wanted to have the chance to capture the
husband to be as well.
Location: St. Ignatius Church
Camera position: Eye level

movement because we want to put all the focus on the protagonist and his
expression to getting married.

portray the male protagaonists facial expression.

order to portray the female protagonist walking through the park.

setting from the view of the charcter. This shot in the trailer foreshadows that
the anatagonist will ruin the wedding.
Location: Across the road from St. Ignatius Church
Camera position: Eye-Level
Analysis of camera movement and action: We wanted to use a static shot
so we can portray the protagonist looking at the Church, where the wedding is
set. A static shot is perfect for this scene because all the antagonists energy is put
on gate-crashing this wedding.
Shot Number - 19
Type: Extreme Close Up

order to show the male character standing at the wedding.
Shot Number - 21
Type: Extreme Close Up
Location: Inside the Church
8. Camera Position: Eye-Level
Analysis of camera movement and action: We wanted to use a static shot
for this moment in the trailer because the main focus is put on the candle as the
antagonist puts it out. This is effective because the candle can be shown as the
happy atmosphere of the wedding and as the antagonist puts it out, it
foreshadows something bad will happen
Shot Number – 22

Location: Cedars Park
Camera Position: Eye-Level
Analysis of camera movement and action: We will use a tracking shot to
convey the male antagonist. Following the female protagonist in the cedars park

Type: Close Up
Location: Cedars Park.
Camera Position: Eye-Level
Analysis of camera movement and action: The static shot of the male
antagonist will be used for this moment in the trailer. This is so we can clearly
capture the weapon the anatagonist is holding. This not only adds climax but
adds dramatic irony because the audience know what will happen next.
Shot Number – 24
Type: Close Up
Location: Cedars Park
Camera Position: Eye-Level
Analysis of camera movement and action: We will use a static shot to
portray the facial expression of the female antagonist. The main focus and energy
is on the antagonists shocked expression so a ststic shot is most useful at this
moment. The effect of the ststic shot at this point in the trailer can make the
audience feed of the charcters enrgy by feeling shocked as well.
9. Shot Number – 25
Type: Close Up
Location: Cedars park

phone. The static shot movement is perfect for this scene because it clearly
captures the danzel in distress and reinforces the themetic issue of death.
Shot Number - 27
Type: Full Shot
Location: Cedars Park

This is the ending of the trailer so we will finish with the point of call.
However, we will keep a static shot of the swings in motion while using the
digetic sound of creaking. This conveys suspense, climax and motivates the
audience to watch the trailer.
