diary entry - finalised plan

This is what me and michael had conlcuded to our opening scene to be. michael wrote this up as i helped him put them in order. this is now added to our final script and will soon have completed it finally. after this i will complete the storyboard once we have also completed shot list.
The ideas we have had for the opening scene, including credits, shots, actions, music and voice over are as follows:

Fade in -

  • Typical loud dramatic Noir music (to be decided)
  • Shot on desk
  • Fade in logo (to be created)
  • Fade out logo
  • Newspapers stack - show 2 other characters
  • Final newspaper to say: 'detective extraordinaire caught covering up killings'
  • Tilts downward
  • Tracks and pans to the door
  • Frame showing feet of actor
  • Tracking shot showing main character walking back to his seat
  • Turns on radio (this triggers the beginning of the voiceover talking - which is the main character looking back)
  • Looks at/through newspapers, then throws in the bin
  • Looks stressed/uneasy, sitting in seat
  • Figgitting, taps typewriter seemingly randomly, in boredem
  • Bang on door (out of shot)
  • Main character looks towards the bang worried
  • Camera pans from face to back of head
  • Progresses out of his seat and out of frame, as camera moves towards the typewriter keyboard, then upward, revealing a silhouette on the wall, as he lights a cigarette and walks out.
  • Camera pans across slightly, revealing the word candy on the paper.

This word will act as the title of the film
