HC Shooting Script

The Shooting Script :


1. Wide shot of Geoff alone in the room, tied to the chair.

2. Shot from over Geoff’s head as Haley calls him from the kitchen. This gives a feel for the size of the room and confirms Geoff is alone in it.

3. Tracking shot coming from the doorway towards Geoff as Haley asks about his medicine cabinet. (Walks in from the door as shown below.)

4. Medium shot of Geoff’s face. Showing to the audience he is confused.

5. Wide shot of Geoff and Haley, from the side, showing how Haley has all the power in the situation. Geoff is powerless.

6. Back to the second shot from over Geoff’s head as Haley walks out of the room to the kitchen. Haley is heard but not seen.

7. Keep that shot until Haley comes back into the room with the drink. As she feeds it to him cut to a shot from over Haley’s shoulder as Geoff eyes widen.

8. Close up, waist height, on Haley’s pocket as she pulls out the vial from her pocket.

9. Pan up as she brings it to her face and mocks concern.

10. Back to shot from behind Geoff as Haley leaves the room again.

11. Tracking shot of Haley going through the kitchen drawers. This is the first time we leave the living room area.

12. Cut back to medium shot in front of Geoff as he asks whether this is some “teenage joke”.

13. Back to medium shot of Haley as she answers.

14. Back to same medium of Geoff as he shouts to let him go.

15. Track Haley from the kitchen back into the living room to a medium shot of her asking if there is anything she should know about.

16. Shot from the open window area, looking back onto Haley and Geoff as Geoff screams for help.

17. Close up of Geoff screaming as Haley’s hand pulls his jaw down and shoots the chloraseptic down his throat.

18. Back to shot from over Geoff’s shoulder as Haley explains how none of his neighbours can hear him.

19. Medium side shot as she sprays him and threatens that next time it will be bleach.
