this shows the characters getting out of the car, it maybe from an aerial shot or even a low shot where the characters will jump out of the car and over the camera.

Shot list for our opening 2 minutes.

Establishing shot- shows the boathouse and then zooms out to show the location to show where the action is being taken place.

Long shot- shows boat coming into shore to deliver the mystery package.

Over the shoulder- shows one actor who is wearing a suit pick up the package.

Tracking shot- shows actor walking up shore with package

Normal shot- shows car and the actors placing the suitcase in the boot and the boot closing and the actors getting in.

Low shot- shows the car pulling out of the drive, could show tyres racing away.

Panning shot- shows car speeding past and driving away.

Close up- shows the inside of the car looking forward onto the windy roads, giving the audience the idea of speed.

Close up- another close up of mobile phone, showing the 'unknown number'

Normal shot- shows car pulling into the location, and will then cut to a shot from behind the car showing the boot opening.

Low shot- shows the characters getting out of the car, characters could jump over the camera.

Over the shoulder shot- shows the characters dropping off the suitcase

high angle shot- shows the characters dropping the suitcase off, could possibly edit the shot so it looks like its been shot from CCTV.

This is just a rough outline for our shot types that we can use for a guidance but it is likely that when we are going through filming our film, that we will add to our shots. We want lots of quick shots and quick editing to give the film a real action feel to build up suspense.

Audience Research.

Our action film is going to be mainly aimed at the teenage audience, possibly more directed towards a male audience as they enjoy the build up of suspense and lots of action. We want the target age of the audience to be between 12-25 years of age. We believe that the film will capture this type of audience because it contains a fast pace throughout, with lots of action taking place right from the offset. The actors who are going to star in the film, will be between the age that we want to aim at, so the audience will be able to relate to the actors and understand more because of this connection.

This is the possible first shot for our media film, it includes the main car that we are going to use and also in the background of the shot, we have the boathouse where the package will be dropped off and taken to the destination. This shot also shows a good proportion of the location that we will use.

These are two boats that we could possibly use for the beginning of our film when the delivery of the secret package is being brought in.

In the first scene, we will use an establishing shot/long shot. This will give viewers an idea of where it is and what could happen. Car and house as main feature.

Another shot we could use.

This is a possible location for mine and Olis filming, where me and him could be there in february half term. This would be ideal for our filming as we would have idilic surroundings and have lots of options with our action film. This is just an idea but it could work very well.
