For the first three shots there will be no shots at all as the screen
will be black and only audio will be playing, we have done it like this to
add tension and mystery straight from the start of the opening sequence, the
audio is between the detective and an unknown man in which the unknown man
tells the detective that they have new information on a case 3 years ago in
which his old partner died, this automatically gives the audience some of the
narrative and immediately creates mystery as it gets the audiences mind
running straight off the bat. (For more info on this scene look at the story
boards where it is explained fully)

Jump cut from black to an Ariel shot
|
Straight after the black shots and the audio is finished there is a
sudden jump cut to an Ariel shot in which the main prop file is slammed onto
the table and then opened up. The use of the jump cut and the file being
slammed onto the table has been used to add action into the scene to
compliment the mystery, keeping the audience more on the edge of their seats.

Ariel shot/pan to close up
|
After the folder is opened the Ariel shot pans across the pages to
show what looks like old case notes giving the prop a sense of authenticity
and realism to the scene as it actually looks like an old detective case file.
After panning across the pages the camera will then zoom in for a close shot
of the first title of director, once stayed on the title for a little while
it will then zoom back out to the original Ariel shot.

|
Ariel shot to close up and then pans to more close ups
|
Once the pages have turned a little more it will come to a double
spread in which the camera will then zoom in for a close up for the second
title, after this it will pan down to the third title, a pan diagonally
upwards will go to the fourth title and then pan down to the fifth title. And
back out to the Ariel shot.
|
7
|
Exactly the same as shot 6
|
And again exactly the same for shot 6 but for the sixth, seventh,
eighth and ninth titles.
|
8
|
Ariel shot
|
After zooming out from the ninth titles and again more pages have
been turned it will then come to the main double spread of the detective and
the victim, this shot more prominent than the others to emphasise them being
the main characters.
|
9
|
Zoom to close shot
|
After the Ariel shot of the main titles of the characters it will
zoom to a close up of the picture of the detective and his titles what will
be the graphic match to a flashback of the investigation 3 years ago.
|
10
|
Medium shot
|
After the graphic match to go into the flashback has occurred it will
then be a medium shot of the detective at the scene of the investigation in
which he will be walking towards the murder scene.
|
11
|
Long shot
|
As the detective walks towards the murder scene the shot will turn
into a long shot.
|
12
|
Zoom out to Ariel shot and then close up of victim title and picture
|
After zooming out of the moving scene to the Ariel shot of the
folder, after this the camera will then zoom to a close up of the victims
title and a picture of him and again this will be used as a graphic match to
the next flashback of the victim
|
13
|
High angle medium shot to long shot
|
After the graphic match, there will be a high angle medium shot of
the victim (dead detective partner) laying on the ground or sitting against
the wall or something like that what will then zoom out or cut to a long shot
of the detective walking to the victim, crouching and inspecting the body
with a small notebook and may cover the body with his coat.
|
14
|
Zoom out to Ariel shot
|
After the flashback has finished it will again zoom out of the
flashback and again back to the Ariel shot of the double page spread of the
main titles.
|
15
|
Again another repeat of shot sequence 6
|
Again another repeat of shot sequence 6
|
16
|
Ariel shot of ident
|
After the final set of titles are shown the file is then picked up
and slammed onto the table again but this time the other way round what will
then show our ident of ‘INQUISITIVE PRODUCTIONS’ presents..... And then a transition
will roll into the main title of the film to be revealed.
|
17
|
Jump cut to black screen
|
A black screen will then suddenly appear and the main title of our
film ‘ENIGMA’ will then be shown but in a more effective way , the tile will
be spelled out letter by letter in a typewriter font and as each letter
appears the sound of the typewriter keys will be heard.

If more information is needed there is more details on how the shots and the mise-en-scene fit the genre and the meaning we want to create this info will be found on the analysed storyboards seen earlier on my blog in the planning section.
