Quick overview of shots and angles we could use

• Starting off with a black out
OR
• The advert/logo of whatever channel it is going to be shown on.
• We could start off with a through the window shot of the couple looking though the box and maybe somehow add the effect of it snowing to get a feel of the time of year!
• Maybe a close up of a wedding photo they have just picked up showing they are married.
OR
• Have a shot of pictures along the fire place. Go along the mantel to show other pictures of family holidays, etc, the mantel piece will be covered in Christmas tinsel and lights.
• Mid shot of them looking though and her picking up a piece of paper
• Move straight to a close up of her face as she realises what it is!
• Maybe then Move to him with a close up with him saying something like “what is it!”
• Then move in to a long shot (so we can see her full body) with her about to drop the paper. In this shot I’m not to sure yet of the position of the camera I have three options and want to pick the one that will have the most dramatic effect.
They are –
1. Having the women standing face on towards the camera
2. Having the women side on facing her husband and having him in the shot
3. Having rear view of the women facing her husband.


• To add to the mysterious effect the camera will then follow the paper to the ground as it drops.
• Finally finishing with a close up of the paper to she that it is a birth certificate with her husbands name on it
