Research & Planning - Treatment changes

Today whilst creating my animated story board, Lucy and I decided to make some changes to the teaser trailer as we realized some shots/edits would work better.


The new treatment:

  • MPAA warning : approximately lasting 3 seconds.
  • Cut to a production title: (VisionTwist productions) 3 seconds.
  • Static: approximately 2 seconds.
  • Cuts to hand held camera -showing the character's feet whilst running. 
  • Cuts to a mid close up of a news report "breaking news.. over to the scene"
  • straight cuts to a medium long shot of the other news reporter at the crime scene
  • Rewind footage back- speed it up.(4 seconds)
  • Equilibrium: the teenagers sat around the campfire talking about the myth using hand held camera, calm atmosphere
  • Flash to a subtitle with newspaper article: Class mates missing! (sepia effect)
  • Cuts to black 
  • Subtitle Myth of the scarecrow: "dating back to the late 1960's" and a photo of the scarecrow (sepia effect)
  • Montage of shots where the teens are in panic..
  • 'coming soon' title frame
  • Canted framing, where you see a body being pulled across the floor as looks like the scarecrow pulling it.
  • Quick cut to title of the film.
