The document discusses establishing shots and key moments in a film. It recommends introducing the protagonist Travis walking alone in the forest to set the location and atmosphere. Using Dutch angles and tense music during the first shot could create unease and tension. Key moments include Travis being murdered by the revealed antagonist after being followed, Chad finding Travis' body to show their close friendship, and a phone call scene where the audience hears the antagonist's voice for the first time and builds tension leading to the discovery of Travis' dead body.

- 2. First shot • At the beginning of our film we want to have an establishing shot of one of the main protagonists Travis walking through the forest, this shot if done correctly with create an atmosphere and also obviously establish the location and introduce us to the antagonist of the film later on
- 3. First shot – analysis • Our first shot should introduce the audience to two new characters and through the use of dutch camera angles we should also create tension and make the audience feel uneasy to grip them and make them want to continue watching • We plan to use tense music as well to create an atmosphere and build tension
- 4. Key moments • One key moment is when Travis is murdered, before this the antagonist is revealed and is shown creeping around and following Travis, and after he is killed there will be a brief moment to show his body • Another key moment is when Chad finds Travis’ body, this is an important scene because it gives the audience an idea of the relationship Travis and Chad had and it tells the audience they were close friends
- 5. Key moments • Another key moment is the phone call scene, in this scene the audience is properly introduced to Chad’s character and the audience will hear the antagonist’s voice for the first time over the phone, through the use of camera angles and music this scene should create an atmosphere leading up to finding Travis’ dead body
