Changes to Film Opening

Due to our antagonist; Father Sheenan unable to fulfill his role in our film we had to change our initial idea slightly. We felt that instead of changing our entire story-line we would tweak it so that our shots that we had already filmed would not go to waste, this sudden change has had an impact on me and my other team members as it means we had to come up with an alternative idea and go through with that. We have decided we would keep the idea however show her father in another religious way. Therefore we came up with the idea that instead of being at a church with the father, it would be at the home with the family and the father would not be there, when at the park/ forest a random person would be seen looking at Addison and it would suggest that it could be her father as it was not at home when she left, this way it does not give it away easily.

Instead of the church we would use the family home and a zoom in would be used from an establishing master shot into the kitchen window. A shot reverse shot is used between Addision and her mother when in conversation about Addision staying at a friends. After this dialogue two point of view shots are used showing her saying goodbye to her two younger siblings. Addision leaves the home where a horizontal track is used to follow her down the street where it would dissolve into her walking into the park as previously mentioned in our original idea. When the night's money is exchanged through the client's window the customer would drive away and a figure would be shown standing by a lamppost watching Addison whom then walks away. At this point the grab would happen and we do not know if it was her father or the suspicious peeping man who murdered Addision, so it leaves the viewers to watch the film after the opening titles.

The story continues by having police officers and inspectors looking at the dead body; the body that the runner identified dead. The inspectors would look for DNA and many of these shots would be shown at the police station, it would be time consuming to look for the murderer due to the many customers she had been with that night. Her parents become aware of her activites, however her father appears very shocked and disturbed by hearing the news.
