Shot List

Scene 2.

The mood of the movie has now changed. As the camera follows Tom out of the room, the lighting is now not so bright, and the camera is slightly lower down to give the viewer the impression of how Toms feeling.

Tom enters the hall way and begins to look around the room. At some points he will half smile, others almost look afraid. As he begins walking slowly toward the unlit kitchen a shadow moves behind it, but he doesn’t notice. He continues into the kitchen and without entering the room puts his arm round the wall attempting to find the light switch. After grasping the wall for several seconds he finally finds the switch, and turns the light on.

As the light comes on, Tom half takes a step back from the sharpness of the light. He walks over to the kitchen sink as he looks around for a glass, he looks out of the window in front of the sink.
I will then show a shot from outside of the kitchen looking in at Tom looking through the window.
Then the camera will switch back inside and I will have an over the shoulder shot of Tom looking through the window.
A silhouette of a person flashes past the window, tom jumps back in shock. A shadow moves behind tom along the wall, this time Tom notices it and turns around in panic. The shots of tom will all be from afar to emphasize how distant from reality he is and how distant he feels from all the objects in the room, i.e doors and chairs.

As tom struggles to walk properly into the living room, he is swaying from side to side and has no sense of balance.
At this point I will try and re-create the effects in Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels, when Tommy has just lost a game of poker and is walking away from the building. This will hopefully give the audience an effect of nausea, and so they can almost share Toms experience.
