Filming Script: Day 1

Day 1: Wickes

 

Location:

Wickes, St. Peter Street, Maidstone, Kent, ME16 0SN
 

Meeting Point:

Kelsey, Bethany, substitute actor John Burr and Hazel will all meet at the Maidstone Wickes Branch, St. Peter Street, at 8pm on Thursday 12^th November. All will then meet with the shift manager inside the premises at 8:15pm and filming will commence.
 

Props:

Bethany: Bethany will bring the camera and memory cards ready for filming.

Kelsey: I will bring a change of clothes to act as a faux uniform, including a name badge, to create the illusion that I am a Wickes employee, for the purpose of the footage.

Hazel: Hazel is going to bring the tripod to be used for steady-cam filming.

Wickes: Wickes have allowed us to use their branch for our location, and also allowed us to use rope and wire etc., for the serial killer to hold whilst walking down one of the store aisles. Additionally, they have given us permission to use one of the tills to make it look as though an authentic transaction is taking place on camera.
 

Extras:

My step-dad, John Burr, has agreed to partake during the filming for today as the real actor was unavailable for the scheduled date. John will meet us at the required destination for 8pm also. As requested, he will wear dark clothing, such as dark boots, to fit in with the character profile. Over-the-shoulder shots and long shots will be used in attempt to take the focus away from John’s face as he is substantially older than the official actor.
 

What will be shot?

 

A total of 3 miniature scenes will be filmed on this day in this location:

• The scene in the trailer whereby we see the killer walking down an aisle carrying rope, tape or wire.
• A clip of the killer standing at the checkout and myself (Kelsey, protagonist) scanning the items.
• The end clip of the trailer, whereby the cashier announces the total the products amounted to. A voice-over of this dialogue will be re-recorded on a different day using better quality sound instruments.

Total Time:

The filming of these clips should take no longer than half an hour.

Finish time = 8:45pm.
