The document outlines the shot list for the opening of a thriller film. It describes using point-of-view shots from the victim being chased to create suspense and establish the action. An establishing shot of the city location is followed by a mid shot of the detective finding the victim's body. Close ups show the detective's confused expression and the victim's ringing phone. The shot list ends with using credits over a mid shot of the crime investigation board and case file to tie it back to the opening of the thriller in an original way.

1. Shot list for our thriller film alibi
• point of view shot- we are going to start are film with a point of shot
from the victim running down the busy streets as they are being
chased, the reason we choose to do a point of view shot at the start is
to show the action from the characters perspective as most thriller film
start with a establishing shot we wanted our thriller opening to be
different and start with the action and create suspense from the
beginning.
• point of view shot- we are going to use another point of view shot to
show the victim looking side to side, we choose to do this because it
shows the reality that the victim is being chased and makes it realistic
for the audience.
• Establishing shot- we have chosen to use a establishing shot ones are
titles have enrolled in the begging the shot is going to be off the big
city location we have chosen, the reason we have chosen to use a
establishing shot here is to show to the audience the location and
setting of the opening of our thriller and helping them understand the
characters surroundings from the beginning.
• mid shot- we have chosen to use a mid shot when the detective first
comes into the eyes of the audience relatively near the begging of the
opening, an the detective is looking at the victim on the floor. We have
to choose to use a mid shot here to show the detective and what is
happening in the shot so we can see the detective and the floor when
he is looking at the floor with the victim laying there, this helps to show
the audience the action.
• close up- we have used a close up shot of the detectives face looking
confused after looking at the victim and looking around to see the
possible suspects in the big crowd of people, we have used a close up
here to show the emotions and feelings of the detective as she is
confused.
• long shot/point of view- we have used a long shot/point of view when
the detective is looking at the big crowd of people wondering if any of
them are the suspects for the victims murder, the shot looks like its
from the view of the detective looking over at the crowd.

2. • mid shot- we have chosen to use a mid shot in the middle of of the
opening of our thriller the mid shot is of a male character who is in the
crowd and the camera has zoomed to a mid shot of a male character
which seems to confuse our female detective as she does not know if
he could be the possible suspect or not, using a mid shot of a random
passerby in the big crowd could suggest the person is important but to
the audience it could show them as being important but the audience
does not know if they have any significance.
• close up- we have chosen to use a close up of an iPhone ringing with
an unknown number which is the victims phone, this is going to be
significant as it shows to the audience that the suspect could be
someone the victim knows with an unknown number and gives that
element of surprise to the audience which we would not expect if a
name came up.
• close up- we then have chosen to use a close up of the detective
looking shocked when the phone is ringing, as we wanted to show the
detective could be confused.
• extreme close up- we also choose to have a close up of the man
zoomed in on in the crowds smile/smirk we choose to use this
because he could be not relevant at all but because we have chosen
to focus on him it could suggest to the audience that he is important
and we wanted to use that as a plot twist.
• hand held shot- we have chosen to use a hand held shot for the victim
running down the busy street, we choose to do this because we
wanted
• mid shot- we choose to use a mid shot of the crime investigation
board which we are going to have our credits running at the end on,
each section of the board is going to be showing who did what
example being the director will be one part of the crime investigation
board, we also choose to role the rest of our credits on (mid shot) of
the case file and the editor, director etc is going to be a case in the
case file book, we choose to do it like this because we felt that it would
be original and link with the rest of our opening to the thriller.
