We had to create a shotlist of the camera angles we were going to use in our task, this is what we came up with:
Mid shot Looking out from door window as Thomas walks into frame
Wide shot Looking at door from inside room as Thomas opens the door
Wide shot Opposite direction to previous shot. Establishes the room and introduces Ben sitting down at the table.
Wide shot over the shoulder as Thomas looks at Ben
Wide shot of room, Thomas slams the desk
Mid Shot Thomas closes the door
Mid Shot Thomas: “What are you sitting here for?”
Mid shot close up of Ben turning round to look at Thomas
Mid shot of Ben: “Just having a cup of tea.”
Mid shot over the shoulder Thomas: “Haven’t you seen what’s going on?”
Wide shot ‘Coffee’s POV’ Thomas: “It’s Armageddon.”
Close up of Thomas’ face Thomas: You idiot. People are dyeing outside.”
Mid shot over the shoulder Ben: “No I’ve been here all lunch.”
Mid shot tracks Thomas as he stands up
