The document provides a timeline and descriptions of shots for a soap opera trailer. It begins with filming an establishing shot of a road sign to set the scene. It then covers several issues through students' points of view, including domestic violence, pregnancy with verbal abuse, and an age inappropriate student-teacher affair. The main event covered is stalking in the woods. Various shots such as tracking shots, over-the-shoulder shots, close ups, and medium close-ups are described to capture the issues and build tension between cutting between the school and woods. The soundtrack is meant to feel dynamic and heart-racing to build up to the climax.
