Scene 4: Hiding from murder in the room. 

                    

Scene 1: Titles appear. Names of producer, actors, director are shown. Different views of Kent Uni. Adobe after effects is used to add a scary background behind the first title.

Scene 2:  (Will need to be filmed in the dark) Starts in the forest road, camera held by person to make an effect that the audience is running with him. Techniques such as jump cut, continuity editing, overlapping edit Shots from different angles: Long shot, Low angle + medium close up, camera still, person running past the camera…  Around 40 seconds of how the main character is running away. He leaves the Kent Uni. campus and crosses a dark scary field. Character crosses the road and almost gets hit by the car. He is still scared to death, he runs through the arc and knocks a random pedestrian not paying attention on him (pedestrian is Kodolov Nikita)
After this he reaches the door of the building (Kent College) and the scene 2 ends.


Scene 3: Scene starts from the character opening the door and appearing in the building. We will make a shot as he pulls on the door from the outside and then make a different shot from the inside when he will be walking through the door, so we will use the continuity editing technique. George runs into the building through the door and reaches another door. He opens it, runs into and appears in another room. Settings: Dark/Night/Scary room. George runs towards the door with a code on it. He enters the code around 2 times as he does it wrong for several times. Then rushes inside the dark corridor and breaks in the random door.

Scene 4: Dark scary room. George falls down near the table. He is sitting/ hiding from something, scared, intense music. Acting skills of the actor applied to show the intensity of the situation and fear of the actor. Someone knocks on the door, tries to open it. Over the shoulder shot is used to show that the actor faces the door and is very emotionally breathes. Actor slowly turns his head towards the door, unexpected sound and strange person suddenly appears. This is the person that was chasing George through all the film opening. It looks scary and the George covers his face screaming. The strange person moves towards George intending to kill/harm him. Dark background appears instantly and the title slowly appears on the dark background "The Run"
