Photostoryboard analysis
1.
As this shot takes place in a
library, obviously the lighting
is artificial. Despite this,
particular areas are
highlighted with extra lighting
to show key parts within the
shot.
The camera is in the form of an
over the shoulder shot of her
picking up a book off the shelf.
We have decided to use this
shot because it almost shows
the scene in the girl’s
perspective as we will be able
to see the man’s eyes through
the bookshelf.
The miss en scene shows the
girl picking up a book and
seeing the stalker's eyes through the shelf.
The two characters shown are the girl, the main protagonist,
and the man’s eyes through the book shelf. This will make the
male character appear mysterious as we can only see his eyes.
The sound in this particular shot will be tense yet fairly quite.
We will try to add a sense of confusion through the music as
we are not certain as to if the man is actually there.
2.
As with the
previous shot,
this scene also
takes place in
a library so
the lighting is
artificial. We
will make sure
the lighting is
fairly dark and
sinister where
her 'follower'
is standing to make the scene seem more eerie and evil. As
the library starts to close, the lights will switch off one by one
so the darkness is coming 'towards her'. The darkness could
symbolise the idea of death and danger.
When the phone is shot close up, the camera will show the
phone in focus and blur the background to show the audience
that the phone is an important prop.
The mise en scene in this particular shot shows 'unknown'
calling against a red background of the phone, which could
connote danger or death.
The character in this particular shot is not shown, yet we see
the girl holding her phone, obviously looking at the unknown
number calling.
The only, yet important, prop shown in this shot is the phone,
held by the girl.
In this shot, before the phone rings, there will be a build up in
music until her phone vibrates loudly on the table as this will
make the audience give a ‘sigh of relief’ as it is only her
phone, yet when she sees that it is an unknown number,
perhaps eerie music will play to make the audience feel in
suspense.
After answering the phone, we will hear the caller breathing
heavily down the phone.
3.
The lighting in this
particular scene is fairly
dark as it is outside at
night, however, to make
sure the female character is
visible, we will include
lighting such as car
headlights behind the girl
or lighting equipment by
the camera.
The shot is shown in the
perspective of the ‘follower’
hiding behind a tree or
bush. The girl is shown n
the distance closing her car
boot. This tells the
audience that the girl is not
just ‘seeing’ things and is actually being watched.
The sound at this point will be tense and uncanny to make the
audience feel anxious.
4.
The fourth image shows the girl who finally gets home yet
does not realise that her 'stalker' has followed her and is
hiding behind a hedge or fence. The porch light in front of her
house will light the scene so the girl appears almost vulnerable
as she is completely lit, yet the 'follower' will look sinister in
the background.
The camera will be in the form of an establishing shot to set
the scene in order for us to see both characters present in the
shot.
The sound, once again, will be tense and ‘on edge’ to make the
audience in fright as to what is going to happen to the girl.
5.
The lighting is artificial in this shot also as it is set in the girl’s
home. The camera shot is set over the shoulder when in
conversation with her mother to show the follower outside the
window.
In this shot, the mother and daughter are discussing the fact
that she thinks someone is ‘following’ her, yet she comes to
the conclusion that she is just ‘seeing’ things as she is tired,
so assures her mother she is okay and will take her mum to the
pub.
The sound will be diegetic, hearing the conversation between
the two characters and, perhaps, hearing the television in the
background. We may decide to play a sharp noise when we
see the ‘follower’ outside the window, yet as the girl does not
see him here.
6.
In the sixth shot, the girl drops her mum off at the pub, and as
she is about to get out of the car to say goodbye to her mum,
the camera sees the 'stalker' in the distance. The lighting will
be lit by streetlights and, perhaps, some extra lighting from
car headlights, as this may not be bright enough. Half of the
'follower' will be lit to show his 'sinister' side yet we will still
be able to see him.
This shot shows an establishing shot in order for the audience
to see both characters in the scene.
The sound will be similar to that throughout yet there will be
background characters talking and laughing outside of the
pub.
7.
The lighting in this shot may be lit by the inside lights
within the car. Although if this looks too obvious, the actor
playing the ‘follower’ could hold a torch close to his face for
the camera to see him in the rearview mirror.
The camera is in the form of an over the shoulder shot yet
we are in the perspective of the male actor as we can see
his eyes in the mirror
The sound will be tense and fairly sharp, although the main
protagonist does not see him at this point so the music will
not be too loud.
8.
As there has just been a
‘power cut’ in this shot,
we found it difficult to
find the perfect lighting
to light the scene yet
still show there has
been a power cut. We
have decided to use
artificial lighting in
another room with
doors open in order to
see the character
through the power cut.
The camera in this shot
shows the girl looking in to the cupboard to search for a
torch. The sound at this point will become even more tense
with more of a build up for the next shot in order for the
audience to feel anxious.
9.
The lighting in this scene
is lit by a torch as there
has been a power cut.
She holds a torch as she
goes up the stairs and
this shines on his face to
show his face’s shadows.
This is the first time the
camera sees what he
looks like facially. The
camera will be an
extreme close-up of the
follower's face in the
girl's perspective. The
follower will be dressed
in black and will look
dangerous.
Obviously this will be the
climax of the film where she sees her stalker so the music
will be more upbeat before she screams.
10.
The last scene is where the girl has screamed herself awake to
her mother calling her phone. She says to her mother she just
had a bad dream and her mum says she is getting a cab home
so the girl falls back asleep. The camera retreats to see her
‘follower’ standing at the end of her bed in the mirror.
The lighting may still be dark as there has been a power cut or,
perhaps, the stalker could have switched the fuse box off so
may have switched it back on at this stage?
The sound will be quiet until the camera sees the male
character in the scene and then the music will be almost
insane?
