Shot 1

On the bus: Over should shot of headlines.In this shot we are trying to achieve an effect where the viewer

primarily sees the newspaper with the heading along the lines of

"Raincoat Killer Strikes Again". At the same time we are going toshoot the shot in a way that allows the viewer to see that the

person reading the paper has the same coat as the killer. This will

hopefully make the viewer think the person reading the paper is the

killer when in fact it's not. The fact that his face is covered

emphasizes the hidden identity theme that is apparent in most

horror genres.

Shot 2:

Walking down the road: Side angle shot frombehind.In this shot we are hoping to have the man we saw on the bus

walking down the street, this shot will be from behind but at a slight

angle and so the man is to keep his identity hidden. Hopefully we

will also have a woman walking in front of him who looks vulnerable

and this effect signifies he is a cold killer but when we actually film

the shot it will be a lot darker as this is a signifier for horror and

adds to the mystery. The 2 characters will talk and are actually both

wondering what to think of it.

Billies mate points out where he thought he saw the

killer in the distance.This is a shot from behind the 2

characters into the distance, it shows a blur which makes it unclear

if what he saw was the killer and gives it an affect to show theyreworried and uncertain.
