Hi! I'm back after lots of research of film openings, genre, teen pregnancy, character development, etc. I have a pretty clear idea of what I want to develop and how I want to execute it. Here is my list/outline of the shots and angles I will be incorporating.
1) Opening Scene
- Wide shot of Lily confidently walking outside of school.
- Tracking/medium shot following Lily into the school hallways
- Camera shifts to an over-the-shoulder shot of people's faces as they interact with her
2) Bathroom
- Cutaway to bathroom throwing up scene
- Wide shot of Jessica holding Lily's hair
- POV shot from Lily's perspective as camera quickly pans to Jessica as she asks "U good?" (low angle)
- Changes to POV shot from Jessica's perspective as camera quickly pans to Lily nodding her head "yes' (high angle)
- Camera goes back to the original wide shot as Lily and Jessica exit bathroom
3) Hallway
- Tracking/medium shot following Lily into the school hallways
- Camera shifts to an over-the-shoulder/closeup shot of people's faces as they interact with her
- Two shot of intense eye-contact between Jake and Lily as Lily walks into class
4) Classroom
- Wide shot of classroom, camera placed behind teacher
- Close-up of Lily's face looking at something
- Eyeline match to a close-up of Jake looking at her
- Eyeline match to a closeup, back to Lily, of her zoning out
5) Flashback
- Cross-cut to a close up of Lily laying on her side
- Shot does not end but it zooms out to a medium shot of her waking up and smiling
- Close up of Lily looking back at Jake and jerking her head sideways
6) Classroom
- Cross-cuts back to classroom of a medium/low angle of teacher
- Close-up of Lily apologizing then looking in the distance
- Eyeline match to a close-up of Jake
