LO3: Annotated Script With Camera Angles and Directions

Scene 1:

Scene 1 will mainly consist of visuals and music and will not rely heavily on dialogue. There will however be brief scenes of dialogue to give the audience context as to what is happening.


Scene 1 will use a key light to create dramatic lighting by only lighting certain parts of the actors therefore leaving shadows and dark areas on screen.


Fade From Black:

Title Sequence over footage of people in a room 'getting ready' and dark streets of Sheffield.

(This scenery will then connote mystery and intrigue surrounding the people and what they are doing in these places at night - therefore connoting something possibly illegal due to the stereotypes surrounding shady activity going on at night).

Music will be playing in the background. 


Song: Peligro by Giggs and Dave.


Song starts from beginning and the title scene lasts for 33 seconds

until the vocals begin.


Once the title scene is over the sequence montage of people in a room will continue and will cross cut to shots of the streets with someone stood under a light exchanging 'goods' with passers by. 


No words will be spoken for the entirety of the scene, it will be completely made up of visuals.


Scene 2:

This scene will use the natural lighting outside as well as the lighting in the shed to create realistic and 'normal' looking light.


This scene properly begins when the main group break through the door into the shed. The same song will be playing during the transition of scenes and will stop when they break into the rivals groups 'hideout'.

A fight then breaks out.

Someone is shot and the leader of the rival group is beaten and dragged to the middle of the room.

Lighting will be dark to help create a moodier look which will compliment the theme of the scene which will consist quite heavily of violence.

Scene 3:

This scene will be shot using natural lighting. The weather will be overcast creating a moody lighting effect while still having all the actors evenly lit and exposed.

Fade in from black.

This scene will feature Charlie on his own getting his re-up from his supplier Gabe while Ads is laying low after the previous incidents. 

Charlie will be waiting in his car until Gabe shows up and they will exchange goods.

Gabe Arrives.

Charlie gets out of his car with Gabe doing the same.

Charlie gets a bag out of the boot and begins walking over to Gabe.

Gabe walks over quickly and punches Charlie, Charlie then drops to the ground.


Gabe:

You fucking idiot.


Charlie:

What the fuck g? Are you fucking daft?


Gabe:

Nah you listen to me Charlie, av heard about what you and fuckin Adz did the other day.


Charlie:

Yeh we were fucking expanding like you told us too you cunt.


Gabe:

I don't give a shit about you expanding but you forgot the first fucking rule that I taught you, never leave witnesses.


Charlie:

We fucking took them all out, there wasn't no witnesses.


Gabe:

You think you did but either you or Adz must have a shit aim because one of them was still breathing when you left and guess who the first person he told was.


Charlie:

Fuck... Harrison knows it was us?


Gabe:

Your damn right he does and you best believe he'll be coming for you. I thought I taught you better than this. If your gunna expand you've got to go balls deep on that bitch, there can never be a fucking witness. 


Charlie:

Ayt then we'll sort it out.


Gabe:

Clearly you aren't fucking smart enough to sort this shit out if you couldn't even handle a simple fucking expansion. Harrison is a serious motherfucker and he's gunna be looking for you. Lay low and stay out of sight while I find a way to get you too out of this mess.


Charlie:

We can handle this hones...


Gabe:

Shut the fuck up, I thought you were smarter than this but clearly I was wrong. You're not doing shit until I say so. Now give me this money and fuck off.


Gabe grabs the bag from Charlie and drops two duffel bags on the floor.

You know what I understand that, I hope you'll feel the same about this.

Charlie stairs down the barrel of the gun.

Harrison fires the gun however it isn't loaded.

Here's what's gunna happen. You took out 4 of my guys. They were bringing in about 10 grand each a month so your gunna pay me 40 grand month... or you die. Also your supplier... Gabe? He's got to go. He's been fucking me off for years and honestly I'm bored of him now. I'll let you keep the territory you stole from me cos lets face it your not gunna make anywhere near what you owe me without it. You fail to do either of these things... I'll kill both of you myself. I'll give you a week to kill Gabe and I want proof when you bring me my cash.
