Primary Plan

Plan one – Mr Gilbert (2min)

This plan was the primary draft that i concocted for this task.

Extreme close up of the camera
1. Track closer to focus on the lens (extreme close up)
2. Fade in an image of the characters (female’s) eye (merge into the number 2)
3. Zoom out of the eyes and reveal the whole body of the character
4. Flick to shot reverse shot with profile in frame still focused on the camera
5. Background sound increases diagetic and non- diagetically and on the right in her peripheral vision, the actors rehearsing are focused on/
6. She -protagonist – stands up exchanges a few words with the group with intern make them exit frame (stage left)
7. Meanwhile the teacher walks half across frame in the background
8. The girl jumps up and runs to teacher ….(dialogue)
9. After the conversation the student storms off in a rage
10. She ends up in the locker room
11. The student sees another student (male) in her class and they discuss the class work and walk back towards the classroom.
12. When they get to the room and argument erupts
13. (NOT SURE) Audience see the fight and asthma that kills him or it should be a blur and a soliloquy could take over (NOT SURE)
14. She goes into the bathroom throws water in her face and talks to herself in the mirror.
15. Goes back into the classroom to steal the camera and realises the tape case is open.
16. There is a flashback of the account of her day and in her memories she remembers that the red light WAS on before.
17. The realisation of the trouble that she was in enveloped her face (close up)
18. Extreme close up of her eye bulging/widening.
19. Title appears.

At the same time i was stuck in two minds about the ending so i devised this plan also, which could give me variety and i could find out what my target audience would prefer out of the two. Then from that research i would keep redrafting plans and ideas until i came across an idea that i was satisfied with and also believed that identified and achieved the brief efficiently, effectively and to my highest standard.
