We need to start filming early as we need to conduct lighting tester shots before we start filming. The tests that we will carry out are:
One with just the curtains closed and another shot with the window blacked out (this could be done by just putting either card or black bin bags over the window)
Props group members will need to bring:
Andy (Lamp)
Becky (Music box)
We also need to collect the camera from Miss Roberts, and to print off all camera scripts, photo copy the story board pages.

The final camera script
We are filming the thriller in Stuarts little sisters bedroom.
[Setting: Man sitting on bed in dark child's room, outside landing light is on so a very small amount of light is seeping in around and underneath the door]
[Sound: Very silent, the only noises in the whole scene are the music box, the man struggling with the bag over his head, the dog barking and sound effect and the end]
Shot one is a panning shot sweeping across the floor looking at pictures of children playing etc... It continues to pan across to mans feet and then up his body, you see him holding a picture in his hand (audience can't see it), then keeps panning until camera settles on a close up of the mans face. You can see the man is very distraught and has been crying.
Cuts to a close up of the music box playing.
It then cuts to a mid shot of him sitting on the bed, you can see the door behind the man but the camera is focused on him. Then the door begins to open slowly in the same shot, see more light creep into the room, man doesn't notice at first.
Then it cuts to a close up on his face as the light from the hall starts sweeping across it, and then he looks over his shoulder.
Cuts to point of view shot looking at the dog coming into the room. A mid shot watches the dog go up to the man, then a point of view shot from the dog, like he is expecting to be fussed over, as he doesn't get stroked it cuts back to a mid shot of the dog curling up at the mans feet.
Then back to a close up on the mans face that is half illuminated from the hallway light, then suddenly the light cuts out like something or someone is blocking the light. Still on the close up of the man begins to slowly turn to look but then a bag is wrapped over his head. Still on the close up see him struggle for a bit.
Then see a close up of the dog barking at the mystery killer, don't know who its is, very dark against outside light, almost a silhouette. Then it cuts out with load dramatic sound.
