Plot Opening
Dan, Harry, Tom
The scene will start off with a first person of the protagonist sitting tied up in a chair behind a table, facing towards the door in darkness. The camera then switches to a extreme close up of the antagonist flicking a switch to turn on a light. The light will then be turned on to the right of the protagonist this shot will be a first person view as the protagonist gets blinded by the light and will slowly get used to it.
The antagonist then comes out of the light to slowly sit down on the other side of the table. The antagonist will then ask the question "why did you do it?" It will then flash back into a murder which the protagonist has committed. During the flashback the interrogation dialogue will carry on over the flashback explaining what he did at the same time as the flashback. In the flashback there will be a chase scene the protagonist will be running after an unknown to us male running away for an unknown reason, to the audience. The protagonist eventually catches up to the male, leaps on him and stabs him to death. The cuts during this scene will be fast to match the pace of the action which is unfolding.
After the flashback has finished and has come back to present time, the shot type will be birds eye view. The antagonist will then stand up from his chair and start to walk around the protagonist without saying a word. As he gets behind the protagonist the shot will then go to a medium shot looking at the protagonist being tied up from behind the chair. The antagonist will then get behind his chair push it under the table and lean over the table towards the protagonist and stare at him for a couple of seconds with a shot reverse shot of them looking at each other.
After the shot reverse sequence of shots the antagonist will then say "Where did you put his body?" "You better explaining more, or I will kill you where you sit." Another flashback will happen while the protagonist explains further the events of the murder while the scene shows the protagonist dragging the male into some deep bushes then walking away from the scene of the murder.
it would make sense to have your storyboard straight after this.
