SHOT LIST

These are my notes!!!
BASICALLY
I first sectioned the songs off into 11 groups, each group represents a change in the music, beat, tempo...E.C.T
THEN I have noted down what happens in each section and which characters are needed, furthermore I have noted each section into seconds, so I know exactly when each section begins and ends.
















SECTION 1:
0-25 seconds
Slow faded in, eary tone.
I will use a spotlight revealing the ballet dancer at a long shot, also I will reveal separate isolated settings. Finally I will reveal 'THE CHARACTER' at a mid-close up shot using a 'shaky camera' effect before the lyrics begin in the next section.

SECTION 2:
26-42 seconds
Slow music and lyrics.
BALLET DANCER
"It's not your fault, it's my own fault, I'm not human at all, I have no heart!"
I want to use a range of close ups on lips, eyes, face ect and have her lip syncing the words. Alongside this narrative, the clip will cut to 'THE CHARACTER' walking along empty, isolated streets. The character will pick up a china doll.

SECTION 3:
43-56 seconds
Slow tempo on beats, lyrics continued.
This will focus on the feet of 'THE CHARACTER' walking in a close up shot. The ballet dancer will continue singing at various shot angles and lengths. The ballet dancer will be shot at a range of high and low angles to represent how 'THE CHARACTER' feels dominated at certain parts, but to also represent how 'THE CHARACTER's' imagination and personality is being possessed.

SECTION 4:
57-1:28 seconds
I want to use a range of slow motion moving shots of the ballet dancer. 'THE CHARACTER' turns around her and 'THE FIGURE' is revealed. The clip will constantly cut between the ballet dancer and the chase. I want to start the chase with a slow motion shot of the character running away.

SECTION 5:
1:29-1:59 seconds
'THE CHARACTER' here is going to run away-slow motion-ally. I want the creature to look like a manic happy clown skipping along chasing the character...I will use low angle shots of the figure and high angle shots of the character revealing how the character is dominated by the figure. This section focuses on the chase.

SECTION 6:
2:00-2:31 seconds
Here the ballet dancer lip syncs again, maybe with a change of light on her face to show more evil in her character-red possibly. Also the figure is revealed now under the spotlight singing the same lyrics, the two characters under the same spotight illustrates the insanity in the characters mind. The chase continues.

SECTION 7:
2:32-2:48 seconds
This section focuses on the street dancer. I have chosen to have a street dancer to contrast with the ballet dancer...innocence contrasted with aggressiveness. I want to use a lot of slow motion mid shots and close ups.

SECTION 8:
2:49-3:29
This part focuses on the ballet dancer and the street dancer mainly. Also I want to include various shots of red lipstick, fingernails, teeth, china dolls...and make the shots very disorientating.

SECTION 9:
3:30-3:51 seconds
This part focuses on the ballet dancer and the figure in unison with eachother. Furthermore the character is becoming tormented and is screaming and ripping her face. The character and the ballet dancer both scream so I can use the buffered effect and jump between the two to make them look like the same person.

SECTION 10:
3:52-4:07 seconds
This section will combine all narratives rapidly together. I want to show the character being overwhelmed and pushed into a corner by the figure and then on the next section the figure will dissapear revealing that it was all in her head and the character is insane.

SECTION 11:
4:08-4:48 seconds
The character realises she was imagining it is and is confused. The spotlight fades out on the figure and the ballet dancer and the character walks away. The china doll is revealed in the background.
