1 Video File Establishing shot
of house.
5 seconds I will be able to add a title over this shot as
there is background sound and there is no
camera movement.

‘Film Clips’
2 Video File Amanda and
Simon meeting in
the morning.
10
seconds
Will require editing as the shot has
unnecessary beginning.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
3 Video File Simon looking for
keys.
3 seconds This links from the previous and next shot
so I might be able to link them to make a
sequence.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
4 Video File Amanda looking
for keys.
2 seconds This shot is slightly out of focus so I have
had to crop some of the clip out.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
5 Video File Simon giving
Amanda the keys.
6 seconds The shot gives a perspective of both of the
actor’s attires although it does crop the top
of their heads off.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
6 Video File Amanda putting
things in the boot
for work.
10
seconds
The car boot took a while to close
therefore I had to shorten the clip to take
less time.

‘Film Clips’
7 Video File Amanda driving
away.
7 seconds The pan of this shot gives a view of the
surrounding but begins to be out of focus
so I’ll have to shorten it.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
8 Video File Amanda pulling
up for work.
4 seconds As the car gets closer you can see
Amanda driving and the look on her face.
Although when the clip starts the car is

stationary so I’ll use an effect so you can’t
see that
9 Video File Amanda
Receiving text.
6 seconds The phone is slightly out of focus so to be
able to use this clip I had to film another
one.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
10 Video File Close up of text. 1 second Following the previous shot I have been
able to get a close up of the phone so you
are able to see who it’s from.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
11 Video File Message sent
from unknown.
2 seconds The repeat of the same message shows
the immediate threat and danger to
Amanda.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
12 Video File See James in the
reflection
1 second The fact the masked man is stood so far
away means that he is blurred out hiding
his identity.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
13 Video File Amanda getting
out of the car
looking for James
3 seconds Amanda doesn’t show much urgency to
get out of the car which doesn’t help show
any danger to her.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
14 Video File Amanda looking
for James
3 seconds This should’ve been shown as a point of
view shot so the audience could see what
Amanda was looking at although you could
see some of what Amanda was looking at.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
15 Video File Car driving past
camera
13
seconds
The shot is quite long in comparison to
little action happening, although this will
allow me to put a title in this scene.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
16 Video File Car driving past
camera 2
5 seconds This is an alternative camera angle which
follows on from the previous scene. The
clip starts with the car at a standstill so I
will have to edit this till the car is moving.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
17 Video File Simon following
Amanda
22
seconds
This will need intense music to increase
the tension so the audience understands
Amanda is in trouble. The window I’m
My documents-

filming out of is dirty making it harder to
see out of it.
18 Video File Amanda looking
surprised
2 seconds A short clip which shows Amanda’s
frightened face well. The lighting doesn’t
help to represent the type of day the best.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
19 Video File Amanda running
towards the car
4 seconds This shows that Amanda is running
urgently trying to find out who it was.
Amanda stops running which doesn’t help
the flow into the next scene.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
20 Video File Amanda looking
in car
4 seconds As you can see the reflection of Amanda’s
face in the window it shows her reaction.
Amanda starts the clip not running so I will
have to crop that part out.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
21 Video File Pouring glass of
wine
6 seconds You are able to hear the diegetic sound of
Amanda opening the bottle of wine so it
makes it sound realistic. Although
Amanda’s arm blocks the glass being
filled.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
22 Video File Cooking a
pancake
8 seconds The scene starts a little blurry although it
gives a good view of what Amanda’s life at
home is like.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
23 Video File Phone ringing
close up
1 second Short clip so it may be difficult to edit but
as this is short it will add to the tension.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
24 Video File Amanda
answering phone
whilst cooking
10
seconds
Shows everything in the scene with the
camera view. This is a similar shot to the
one before so could be a little boring
through repetition.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
25 Video File Amanda
answering phone
again
20
seconds
Represents that Amanda is still cooking
her dinner but again is exactly the same
shot just for a different duration.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
26 Video File Day and Night
time-
12
seconds
This shows the change of day from
evening to morning well. Although this was

taken from the internet and looks slightly
artificial.
27 Video File Getting cup out 4 seconds This show will show a variation in camera
shots although the camera isn’t very
straight so doesn’t show high quality.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
28 Video File Making coffee 7 seconds Shows a sequence of clips all linking
together setting the time of day. This is a
long clip with little action.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
29 Video File Putting milk in 1 second Not much room for editing but this adds to
the sequence of clips.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
30 Video File Getting a bowl
out
3 seconds The clips begin to become a little repetitive
in the sequence but also helps to set the
scene.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
31 Video File Putting cornflakes
in bowl
12
seconds
A long clip in which the camera angles
don’t change, allows for some editing and
titles over the top.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
32 Video File James standing
over the other
side of the road
7 seconds Amanda’s reaction when seeing James
seems to be natural due to the camera
movements although when the curtains
open the camera takes time to react in
terms of lighting.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
33 Video File Amanda running
down the stairs
2 seconds This clip starts with Amanda out of the shot
so this will increase the tension. This isn’t
realistic as Amanda starts with her shoes
on upstairs.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
34 Video File Amanda running
out of the door
4 seconds Links to the previous shot and helps the
film to flow, although Amanda goes out of
focus as she gets further away.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
35 Video File Over the shoulder
shot of Amanda
looking for James
2 seconds This gives a good point of view shot from
Amanda although you can’t really see
much due to her hair being in front of the
camera.

‘Film Clips’
5. Unit 17: Preparing material for editing
36 Video File James at window 3 seconds The element of surprise in this shot will
mean the audience aren’t expecting it. The
shot could do with being longer so it is
easier to edit.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
37 Video File Amanda pulling
knife out of draw
2 seconds Pulling the knife out quickly increases the
tension, but there is no room for editing as
it isn’t a long clip.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
38 Video File Amanda running
towards the door
2 seconds This shows the realistic movement of
Amanda, although the lighting changes
from the previous scene quite a lot.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
39 Video File Simon walking
into the house
2 seconds The fact you are unable to see who is
walking towards the door increases the
tension. However, Amanda’s hand holding
the knife has moved from the previous
scene.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
40 Video File Simon opening
the door
6 seconds This will needs to be clipped down so that
it fits with when Simon walks in the door.
The change in camera angle keeps it
varied.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
41 Video File Simon rolling on
the floor
15
seconds
Shows Simons full body and shows the
state in which he is in after stabbing.
Slightly long clip as there isn’t a change of
camera angle so could become a little
boring.
My documents-
‘Film Clips’
42 Video File Amanda holding
bloody knife
5 seconds Can see Amanda’s reaction to just
stabbing Simon and showing that she
stabbed him. However the camera
movement has slight movements and isn’t
stable.
