Shots and Edits Incorporated into our Film ☮ ☮ ☮

In our opening scene we wanted to incorporate as many different editing types and shot types as we could to get the highest grade we could and to also reach the best of our abilities with the opening scene, and to also portray as many different emotions as we could through the shot and editing types to show the exact connotations of the characters and setting

Shot Reverse Shot: This edit is used when our two antagonists are exchanging conversation once our protagonist is murdered. We do this in different angles throughout the exchange to show a sense of where they are meeting and how the two feel, which we portray as our murderer being calm and our other antagonists accomplice as nervous and inquisitive.

Pan:
This shot is shown at the very beginning of our scene with the establishing shot, that shows our location of the woods at a murky and abandoned area which will show connotations of fear and eeriness.

Match on Action:
This edit is shown when our Protagonist Ellie is seen calling our main character Tara, when she is at the coffee shop, we see her hand and phone screen in a close up shot where we see Tara's name in bold over her screen, so that the audience can identify who she is calling.

Extreme Close-Up Shot:
In this shot we had our protagonist Tara, with her face being covered by the plastic bag only seeing her mouth rapidly breath the bag in and out showing her gasping for breath, this was wanted by our group to see the intenseness of the scene as our protagonist is seen at a fateful end.

Over The Shoulder Shot:
This edit/shot was used again during our antagonist's conversation about the death of Tara, this was so that we could see who was in the shot and the body language of the other character and see how the react to the opposite characters language and body language as well.

Close-Up Shot:
This particular shot was shown on various occasions throughout the scenes, in the coffee shop when our protagonist Ellie is seen angrily leaving a message on a main protagonist,Tara's phone, this was so that we could see the full emotion of the actress when delivering her bitter voice message. The other time was when we see again our main protagonist being suffocated, the difference between this shot and the extreme close up shot was that the top of our victims head is seen and can see in the corner our antagonists costume and mask.

Cantered Angle:
This shot was used when our protagonist and victim, Tara, across the bridge to show that something is odd and distressful about this locations, and will hopefully show the audience that something fateful will occur in this location.

Two Shot:
This shot is used twice in our opening scene, in both the assault scene when both Tara and Rosemary are seen struggling in the strangling scene, and also when the two antagonists are discussing what has occurred in the woods with Tara's fateful death.
