Here is a shot list that I created for the film. The purpose of the shot list is to help our group to create an effective storyboard to match and so that when we film our piece we can easily look at this for references. It details what should be happening in each shot and how long they should last for. I have taken into account how long each shot should last as its length can signify the significance of the actions and props on screen. For example, for the extreme close up of the characters bleeding finger, some would argue this is an important shot and does not need to be so long, however, I would say that it is very important to the films story. Its close up claustrophobic feel and the blood signifying violence and danger both contribute to the main themes of the film, I have also decided the films title will be shown here, hence the lingering shot. Although this is a basis of which my group and I will work on, I am sure that a lot of these shots and decisions are subject to change and most likely will when we come to film our piece.
