Film Trailer = First Draft of Plan

Shot 1: Central Protagonist: Alice is in the shower, looking into the mirror. Lighting is artificial and has an orange tint to it. We will use an over the shoulder shot to show her reflection in the mirror.

Shot 2: Shows Alice in a natural setting which we've chosen to be her school, a wide shot is used to show off location.

Shot 3: Shows Alice with her friends and meeting the romantic interest, Maggie. They meet by making eye contact across the room or hallway, they haven’t yet met before. Camera tracks Maggie from the perspective of Alice, so it's like through her eyes and then tracks around to show Alice looking at Maggie as she walks by. This scene could have bright lighting, to portray the characters happy emotions.
Shot 4: Dismemberment shots of Alice and Maggie lying in a bed. We will make sure there is a smooth transition from each shot to highlight how there isn’t a large transition of time between the shots. Shots show their hands and legs and hair etc. without directly showing either of their faces.
Shot 5: Alice is in the middle of two of her friends who are taking funny photos, such as kissing her cheeks either side or making peace signs with their hands. Then a sound bridge to the next shot with dialogue 'do you ever wonder what  | their reaction might be?' This is talking about the reaction of her friends.
| = new shot. Next shot shows her finishing her sentence as she looks up at Maggie.
During the end of this dialogue, the music stops. This allows for a new song to be played which will be more solemn in a contrast to the song that was being played before which was upbeat and happy.
Shot 6: A high angle shot of Alice looking up at Maggie, close up shot to show her emotions, in this intimate situation. The high angle shot puts them in a position of vulnerability, especially Alice.
Shot 7: This shot shows that all of Alice and Maggie’s friends have found out about their relationship and their reactions aren’t good. Alice is looking on social media and is seeing all of the negative things people are saying about her.
Shots after this could speed up and become shorter. Final shots switch from negative to positive content, back and forth.
Shot 8: This shot is continued on from the first shot and shows Alice in the shower again. We will keep the artificial lighting as it shows how she believes her friends won't be open to the idea and could suggest that she believes the way she feels towards Maggie is 'unnatural' like the lighting.
Shot 9: Alice and Maggie are shown arguing/shouting maybe in a private place such as a bedroom or in the school environment so the situation is more intense.
Shot 10: Returns to the dismemberment shots (shot 4) of Alice and Maggie again.
Shot 11: Alice is scrolling through the negative posts on social media on her laptop. Shot reverse shot is used to show the audience the comments on the screen and then to show Alice’s reaction to these comments.
Shot 12: Alice then says ‘All has changed since loving you’. The shot then fades out to black to reveal the title ‘Loving You', which appears as the words are said.
End
