last of filming / what i need to film

have running then do the opening credits sequence
give a reason, why is she running?

have the two girls walking 1 brakes off the other goes into the woods.
have the sound of footsteps the one that goes into the woods is getting nervous e.g. gripping backpack or doing something with their hands
get a shot of feet going through a puddle (like shot 013)and walking along (only the feet)
have a shot of Little Red slowly getting faster then go into shot of L.R running away through the woods (shot 510)

feedback 23/02/15

shot 510 - good opening shot, establishes action
shot 514 - range of different shots to establish action, has good opening but a bad end, dump it.
shot 515 - possible
shot 519 - a good Point of View shot
shot 522 - keep it

have running then do the opening credits sequence
give a reason, why is she running?
could have 2 girls.
if I go with the 2 girls:
have the two girls walking 1 brakes off the other goes into the woods.
have the sound of footsteps the one that goes into the woods is getting nervous e.g. gripping backpack or doing something with their hands
get a shot of feet going through a puddle (like shot 013)and walking along
have a shot of Little Red slowly getting faster then go into shot of L.R running away through the woods (shot 510)


use a close up or medium close up of portraits of girls looking anxious
they're aware that they may be being followed
possible shot of killer approaching?
or don't see the killer?
see feet go through water
sound of someone breaking a twig/branch?

sound of a music box




This is the sound of a music box that I will use for my video. A few of the reasons I will use it are:

It matches the mood of the film.
It is that it is eerie and dark.
It will create a link between the film and the fairy-tale of little red riding hood, it will be one of the things that creates a link between the two because most people connect music boxes with children and children with innocence and innocence with fairy-tales.

screenplay idea 1

 

Screenplay of Little Red Riding Hood

sound of music box playing , fade in from black.
camera looks down on little red. veiw her from the torso up. hear her shallow breathing/see her breathing, this will become shallower and slower whenever the camera cuts back to her. torso is covered in blood, has a black eye and cut on her forehead, bruised cheek(?). school top is torn in places where she has been stabbed, possible bruising on her neck to show how she was restrained.
Flashback
cut to the camera looking down at the credits on a puddle for 2-3 seconds. child (won't see their faces) runs through the puddle, the water ripples and the credits fade, when the water is calm again more credits appear. then repeat the ripple effect and possibly repeat the credits a third time.

screenplay idea 2

 

Screenplay for Little Red Riding Hood

 

Sound of a music box playing faintly in the background. Fade in from black to a head on veiw of the woods (the woods is straight on), it will be preferably dark and/or sparesly lit. Travel through the woods. Close up of the ground and have credits on have branches leaning in on the path and have credits on the branches.

Focus on a puddle thats on the path, have credits on it, have someone run through it and cause a ripple effect that distroys the credits.
Cut to a shot of someone breaking a twig. then cut to Little Red.
Have a side shot of Little Red lying down. The camera then moves to a position above Little Red, show from the torso up.
Little Red's top is torn/ripped from where she has been stabbed. it is covered in blood. she has a black eye, has a cut on her face and may have a bruised face. Hear shallow breathing/see her breathing get slower and shallower.
Cut to Flashback
Little Red, the Wolf and the Lumber Jack interacting, DO NOT DISTINGUISH BETWEEN THE WOLF AND THE LUMBERJACK and DO NOT GIVE THEM COSTUMES, just have them dressed normally. The music box fades to into the background but is still there and you hear the sound of the children playing.
Cut back to Little Red
Music box fades back in/becomes louder again. Have a close up of Little Red from the neck up, her breathing is getting shallower and slower.


Cut to a flashback
Little Red and her dog in her garden
Little Red
Here Trixie ( or something like that )

Cut to little Red
Extreme close up of her face. She breaths once more then stops. Music box stops playing, fade to black
 
 
 

OR

 
 
opening credits, production and distribution companies
fade in from black open on footage of Little red either a side shot or a close up, music starts playing the moment you start fading in either stick with music box or use a clock, maybe use both - one for her laying there dying and the other for her running, maybe use running footage first then use more of a drum beat
