Camera Work Ideas For Our Opening Sequence.

- At the start when the boy is being chased, we will use a point of view tracking shot to create a dramatic tension and a sense of 'the unknown'.

- As the camera catches up with the person, the camera angle will switch to a low angle shot of the back of another person hiding behind a tree, with this shot we can still see the boy running, only this time we can see the boy running towards the camera. This will make the viewers feel as if the boy is now surrounded and will be caught.

- Next we will use an areal shot of all three characters, the boy running, the boy chasing, and finally the boy hiding behind the tree. This is so that the audience can see everything that is going to happen to prevent them from jumping and being scared when the boy jumps out from behind the tree.

- As the boy leaps out from behind the tree, the camera will zoom in and then change to a point of view of the boy running, this will create a sense of vunrability.

- However, as both boys hit the floor, the boy that was hiding shouts 'tag' the will create an anti-climax and prevent furthermore fright for the audience.

- After this we will use a freeze frame so that the main character can introduce his two friends. This will give a sense of comfort as the audience will now be familiar with the characters.

- We will then leave the camera on the edge of the forest as the 3 boys walk into the distance into an extreme long shot to their lessons.

- As they enter the school, we will use a match on action shot, to show the three boys walking into the school, as they are walking down the corridor we will use another long shot to show them walking towards a teacher. In a rush one of the boys will accidently brush past a teacher. With this the teacher will lose his temper.

- Then we will use a low angle shot to show the power of the teacher as he tells the boys off.
