Action Script

Action Script List: 





  • The screen begins black and flashes into frame
  • Establishing shot of a bedroom and mirrors with the male starring into the mirror, with a blank       expression on his face
  • Cut to a reverse shot of him doing his hair as his facial expression hasn't changed
  • Shot of female starring into the mirror with a blank expression
  • Again cut of female brushing her hair downwards as her face begins to look slightly more innocent as she looks down
  • Shot of male shaving his face as we have separate close ups to increase the dramatic atmosphere
  • Cut back to the female putting make up on as we have quick separate cuts of different make up, such as mascara and lipstick. 
  • We have titles in-between some of these shots and on top of some shots. Its in continuously various. If you have a look at the storyboard, you will see titles as small green strips.
  • Scene begins to increase in pace through editing
  • The male does up his buttons of his shirt as we will have very fast cuts between close ups of buttons and his facial expression as he does up his buttons
  • Trying to maintain the same lighting and position of each character as they cut between them.
  • Female doing up her dress, shots from front and back, quick son session
  • Male doing his shoe laces up on posh shoes, shot from the start and sped/cut to the end of the shoes being tied so we don't have seconds being wasted on shoe laces being tied.
  • Level to the ground one shoe is slipped on and jump cut to the other foot going into the other shoe. The camera does not move.
  • Both cufflinks being done up by male
  • Cut to females colar bone being very prominent, female then places neckless around her neck
  • Facial expression of the male begins to change as he is soon to be ready
  • Male sprays aftershave on each side of his neck, camera not showing most of his face, just his slight smirk
  • The female is the same but as she sprays perfume, we maintain the idea of an innocent look
  • The male looks at himself in the mirror then cut to female doing the same thing
  • Male walks away and cut to women walking away from the mirror
  • Male walks over to table with jump cuts skipping out his walk
  • Picks up phone and sends a text message "I'm on my way, better be ready."
  • As she clicks send, she receives it looks at the message, close up of her mouth smirking at one side
  • As she picks up her clutch bag, a cut of a knife entering the bag, close up of the knife in the air
  • The music hits a peak here as a high pitch screech enters the same time as knife is shot

    Action Script by Connor Barbor
    From the action script we get a feel of what our final piece is going to look and helps us create more of an understanding. It also helps us a lot as within our intro there isn't any dialogue so this helps us understand that we need some sinister music to help create the ominous. Also the music will help make the piece more interesting as we will be able to change the speed ect of the music to connect in with the pace of the intro. Harriet is working on some music as she is very good at composing music so she will be able to make our own music with the help of Harriet. Also it won't be copyright.
