Diary entry 6 - Finalised plan of opening scene

The ideas we have had for the opening scene, including credits, shots, actions, music and voice over are as follows:
Fade in -
  • Typical loud dramatic Noir music (to be decided)
  • Shot on desk
  • Fade in logo (to be created)
  • Fade out logo
  • Newspapers stack - show 2 other characters
  • Final newspaper to say: 'detective extraordinaire caught covering up killings'
  • Tilts downward
  • Tracks and pans to the door
  • Frame showing feet of actor
  • Tracking shot showing main character walking back to his seat
  • Turns on radio (this triggers the beginning of the voiceover talking - which is the main character looking back)
  • Looks at/through newspapers, then throws in the bin
  • Looks stressed/uneasy, sitting in seat
  • Figgitting, taps typewriter seemingly randomly, in boredem
  • Bang on door (out of shot)
  • Main character looks towards the bang worried
  • Camera pans from face to back of head
  • Progresses out of his seat and out of frame, as camera moves towards the typewriter keyboard, then upward, revealing a silhouette on the wall, as he lights a cigarette and walks out.
  • Camera pans across slightly, revealing the word candy on the paper.
This word will act as the title of the film.
