Shot List and Shot Order.
SHOT ORDER.
As our opening sequence was all set in the same place (inside the coffin) we didn't need a shot order, so we just filmed it in the order that things happened. The only thing we did do was, at the end, we filmed some sound effects of the dirt hitting the coffin to make them more clear.

Props Final List.
As our coffin will be dark we needed to find something to light it. We didn't want to use a torch or a mobile phone as we felt that it would be cliché. Also if you were stuck in a coffin underground, it would be easier to get out if you had a mobile phone. We decided to buy 3 LED lights to stick to our coffin, so hopefully it will give it enough light. We are also going to drill 3 holes into the lid of the coffin so we can drop dirt into it which will also help let some light in.
Costumes
We looked for a long sleeved, lace wedding dress on the internet but couldn't find one that was very cheap and looked like a wedding dress. Our plan B was to look in some charity shops in Cranleigh and London to see if any of us could see anything that looked similar to what we wanted, However, we couldn't find anything similar. A few of our family members had dresses but didn't want to give us them as we have to rip it up and cover it in dirt. We then went back to the internet and found this dress and veil, which were both cheap and the dress had long sleeves which is what we wanted. So we ordered it. It cost £30.00
Set Design.
Our opening sequence is all set within a coffin to help build suspense. As we couldn't actually buy a coffin, we decided to make one and made detachable sides so that we can film from different angles. We used some wood we found at school and then drilled in some panels we could use as the sides, we could also undrill them so they become detachable. We decided to make a rectangular box instead of a coffin as it was much easier. The only possible problem was that we had to make sure the box could fit someone in it comfortably and still give us room to film.
Actress Confirmation.
We decided to choose Grace as our final actress. This is because she looks quite traditional and when covered in make up looks fragile. We also needed someone who could act very good as we are relying on the acting to create the suspense along with other things, but the acting is a big thing. Grace has trained at the Sylvia Young Theatre School for the last three years.
