Analyses Of Script

INT. Boy's room. Day.

Boy stands by window having a cigarette, silently watching innocent looking man walking on street. Over the shoulder shot shows the man down on the street from the boy's perspective. Close up on certain actions of the boy smoking. The smoking shows the casual approach of the boy which due to the over the shoulder shot we assume is linked to the man on the street.   

                                           Voice over says (in a deep and depressive tone):

                         "Thats my target, i never planned life to be like this, but it is how it is." 

We have decided to do this at the beginning of the thriller as it opens up what the rest of the potential movie will be linked around. The use of the over the shoulder shot is key in this scene as it will definitely establish to the audience what the character's possible motives will be and where the movie will take place around. The voice over is also being used in order to explain the scene a little more to the audience and it creates tension and suspense as the deep and depressive tone will cause the audience to know that something tense will be taking place. The dialogue helps to create enigmas as the audience will want to know things such as 'why is he targeting this person?' 'How do they know each other?' etc.

EXT. Street outside boys block. Day.

Shot of man walking in the street as we know boy is watching (omniscient audience). Portrayed as innocent an seemingly normal, average business man on his way to work with a briefcase and smartly dressed. Shots cut between boy and man to show connection. Camera is mainly eye line shots from boy to man, medium shots of man and close ups of boy's eyes. This shows the definite connection between the two but the audience doesn't quite know what. 

This has been used in order to connect the two characters further but from the innocent protagonists point of view. As the protagonist is smartly dressed and seems like a normal man the audience will easily be able to pick up on the fact that he is definitely endangered which is backed up by the constant camera shots, close-ups, eye line shots and camera movements. This part of the sequence will also raise suspense and tension because the audience are omniscient due to the dramatic irony. Enigma in this shot should be raised in the audience as now they will be wondering more things such as 'How is he going to kill him?' 'Why is he going to kill him?' etc

INT. Boy's room. Day.

Titles and boy getting dressed interchange, final shot shows boy placing gun/knife in jeans. The camera shots are mainly close ups of props and clothing mixed in with blacked out screens with the titles on. The close up of the weapons show their importance and raise tension because the audience assumes the worse when they see the weapons but don't quite know what he's going to do with them.   

Score: Bashy-Ransom 

This is being used in order to create more suspense in the audience as they will see the knife or gun and immediately feel shocked by what they've seen. The constant close ups and camera movements showing the props and clothing will help to set up the scenario for the audience and help them to understand the plot a little more. The close up of the weapon will reveal to the audience that it is a key prop and they will begin to associate that with the man and enigmas will be answered such as 'how is he going to kill him?' etc.

INT. Boy's room. Day. 

Boy puts his hood up, showing he's ready for action and leaves his room, door slams. Camera is a low medium shot from behind showing the boy leave. The low shot makes the boy seem bigger than he actually is so that he becomes an intimidating figure. The hood also creates a mysterious aspect about the boy as he's never fully revealed. This then cuts to a blacked out screen with the film name on top. 

The camera shot of the boy putting up his hood will allow the audience to visually know that he is going to begin moving, creating more tension as now the audience will think that he is going to kill the man now. The shot behind the boy leaving his house will show the audience that the real action is going to begin very soon and the blacked out screen revealing the name of the film will want the audience wanting to know what is going to happen next, making them want to watch the film if it was to be made. All this tension created throughout the sequence will enable the real motive of the film to easily be spotted by the audience.
