The Eye of Lucifer - Synopsis

The film will start at the Harrow Museum where our credits will be showed in the sky as the camera angle will progress down towards floor. We will use a high angle shot moving into a low level shot. Moments later our main character will walk through a park and make his down a long pathway.  As he is walking, we will use a long shot which will be of the tress in the background whilst our actor is walking. During his journey we will  might use a various angle shots, for example bird eye view, extreme long shot, close ups, Oblique/Canted Angle (to suggest imbalance and transition) and hand held shots. The various angle shots will show the instability of the character.

As he walking, he feels as if someone is watching him and turns around to see a strange girl starring blankly straight at him making him feel very uneasy. For this we will use a long shot to emphasise the distance between them. As he turns around he sees the same girl before him, he is frightened by the sudden appearance. Here will we use a close up, to show the emotions of the girl and to make it more thrilling. He soon runs away and realises that she has disappeared, so he decides to carry on with the journey, only moments later he see the same girl again near a barn and entering it. This will be shot by using various shooting techniques, for example long and medium shots and also bird eye view shots.

Our actor will then make his way towards the barn, following the footsteps of the girl as he feels that she wanted him to follow her. As he is walking he finds a piece of paper with a building and the sign of the illuminati, which will light up and influence the character. Here we will use a close-up to shoot the piece of paper to show what is on it, so the viewers feel as if they are there. Moments later he will approach the barn and enter it and we will use a As he approaches the building, something is drawing him in and we will use a medium wide angled shot to get the front of the whole building into the shot, so the viewer feels as if there entering the building as well. We will also get a close-up of the door handle whilst it is being opened.

As our character enters the barn, he will go up the dark and mysterious stairs to find that the girl is lying on the floor. We will use close up shots to show facial expressions, but also Oblique and shots from behind the actor, which will keep the suspense and thrilling feeling throughout the whole seen as the audience will be feeling anxious. He soon walks towards the girl, thinking that she is not alive and looks very closely at her face to see what is going on. Unexpectedly she sharply opens one of her eyes, to represent ‘the eye of Lucifer’. Also at for this scene we will use a close up only on her eye, as this is the main focus and will maximise the intensity. Following this we will have a black out. Throughout the whole two minutes of our opening we will not have any dialogue but have thrilling music instead. We will start off with calm but yet scary music at first and build up the tempo as the scenes progress until the end where the music will be very gripping and fast tempo as we are shooting straight into the girl’s eye.
