TRANSITION IN
STUDIO LOGO FADES IN/OUT
INT. House/living room. The room is dark but the lighting is natural. Camera pans on to features of a dead body (lucy) -covered in blood. [Title screen begins]
Her arms are bruised and her legs are cut.
Camera then pans to her face and slowly gets closer until it is just focusing on her eyes - they are closed.
Transitions to her opening her eyes, but she is in a different room - appears to be waking up. (rewind to before she was dead.)
She puts her feet over the side of her bed, turns off her alarm and puts on some slippers. (shows normality - how her morning routine is the same as anyone else. She appears to be a normal, average girl.)
Forward tracking on camera - follows her into bathroom. She plays with her hair and turns around so that she can see that she is not bruised to then transition into a filtered shot which appears as a flashback. We see the character covered in bruises and clearly upset, SAME FILTER AS OPENING. [title sequences here]
Filter returns to normal, signifying back to normality.
We next see her in the kitchen, she is fully dressed with her hair tied in a tight ponytail and has make up on. She proceeds to get a glass out of the cupboard but puts it down onto the counter with a thud.
[Sound effect of glass banging].
[FILTERED SHOT] - flashback
She falls to the floor - a loud bang (the same as the sound of the glass). she tried to get up but is disorientated - Slow motion for added tension.
[Sound effects - sound of a hearbeat in the background with a buzzing noise to show that she is frail and in pain.]
Camera fades to black. FADE IN - she grabs the key off the side but hesitates/pauses before she picks it up. Another flashback [FILTERED] Character is being strangled and her throat is being cut with the same key - clearly a male strangling her. Blood is pouring down her throat.
Black screen
[Back to reality] character grabs key and locks door
Mother/Unkown Voice shouts "Be back before 5" - as the door closes the shot ends.
Our second story focuses more on the reality of how the abuse happened and the lead up to it through the declining of calls, voicemails etc.
TRANSITION IN
STUDIO LOGO FADE IN / FADE OUT.
INT. House/room with laminate flooring. Natural lighting. Camera pans to features of a dead girl (lucy) who is covered in bruises and appears to have very pale skin.
Camera pans to her legs and then individual shots of each of her arms and hands the camera then zooms in to a close up shot of her closed eyes.
TITLE SCREEN SHOWS
Next shot shows her in a bed – phone alarm sounds. Two separate shots, one from above her and one to show her exiting the bed. Close up shot of her putting slippers on. (Her morning routine is the same as any other person – shows how she appears to be just like anyone else). Next, she is sat on a dressing table – she is putting on makeup. - Her phone rings but she sighs an irritated sigh and ignores it.
One shot from over the shoulder so that it is from her perspective and also a medium long shot. Forward tracking on camera – follows her into the bathroom where she brushes her teeth and puts on a jumper. Forward tracking of camera again, follows her downstairs (Camera is handheld to show it from her perspective) - She stops midway on the stairs as her phone rings again but she ignores it.
She walks towards the door and her phone rings again - this time she answers it:
'What now?' - she says with an agitated tone. 'You better not mess this up, BOTH of our careers on the line and you know what i'm capable of'
Mumbling sounds from a male voice from down the phone
'OK i'm leaving now, just get this done and you're of the hook'.
She hangs up the phone and leaves the house.
Close up shot of her opening the door, Long shot of her behind glass closing the door.
She then walks out of the door and the shot slows down as she walks past the camera.
FADE TO BLACK
