Updated Shot List for My Teaser Trailer for 'Se7en Devils'

I have updated my shot list, so I am now ready to film, though I may complete one more draft before filming.

  • establishing shot of town from a hill  take a few static shots, but also some slow pans and slow zooms, in case they can be used later in the sequence/to give more options during editing (five or six shots should be enough) 
  • establishing shot of a rural road leading to the town  again, shoot this in a number of different ways from static shots to pans/zooms, and maybe even a moving shot (shot from inside a car)
  • medium shot of road sign showing the town name 'Seven Devils' (can be shot in the same village, placed over the existing sign, sign needs to be made)
  • extreme long shot of suburban house (take a number of shots of the house, from different angles, and maybe a couple of shots slowly zooming in)
  • pan slowly around room to show posters and props (do a number of pans, some right to left and others left to right, and also one that goes full circle 360 degrees)
  • series of close ups of props and posters (lots of shots, film these from eye level angles, but also each one from canted angles as well  with the posters, focus in on the gory bits and/or the titles, to emphasise the horror)
  • two shot of girls sitting on couch  from lots of different angles, some static, some of the shots moving around them, and make sure that there are many different distances including long shots/medium long shot/medium shot/medium close up/close up  need to know the dialogue so that this matches with the images 
  • series of over the shoulder shots, keeping shot distance same for both (film many different shots)
