1 INT. CARRINGTON POLICE STATION - MORNING 1

The camera looks at the floor of the police station. It

slowly follows Dalia through the police station into the

interrogation room. Dalia sat in the interrogation room for a

couple minutes before the detective walks in. While in the

interrogation room, Dalia started thinking about her past and

started hearing voices. The detective walks in and started

having a conversation with her about their suspicions about

recent murders.

2 INT. INSIDE THE INTERROGATION ROOM 2

CUT TO

Dalia walks in the police station and gets escorted to the

interrogation.

GROUP OF POLICE OFFICERS

(whispers) Isn't that Dalia James? I

thought she was still in the psych

ward? Who in there right mind would

let her out after what she did to

that poor girl Serena.

Dalia reaches the interrogation room door. The detective

opened the door and Dalia walked in.

DETECTIVE JOHNSON

I'll be right back, give me a few

minutes.

While Dalia waits in the interrogation she thinks on why she

has been called to the police station. She begins to wonder

if she did anything wrong. As she thinks on what she did, she

remembers her past and what got her the reputation she has

now. She begins to remember the one person that told her she

will never be anything, even though we were friends.

SERENA

When we graduate high school even if

you make it that far, you will up

just like your mom. A drug addict

and living on the streets. I once

had faith in you but you will never

be anything. Remember I said this.

Dalia bangs her head to make the voice in her head stop. She

begins to have a panic attack and that's when the detective

2.

walks into the interrogation room. Dalia relaxes as Detective

Johnson comes to sit across from her.

DETECTIVE JOHNSON

Hi Dalia, how are you? I have a few

questions for you.

DALIA

I'm doing fine, what am I doing here

DETECTIVE JOHNSON

Well... there has been a few murders

around town, and I don't know if

this is a coincidence or not, but

you were placed at all of the scenes

minutes before the murder. The

surveillance does not show anybody

else near the scene so do you want

to explain what you were doing on

these dates at these times.

DALIA

There is nothing I can say that can

make you think that I'm innocent. I

already know what you're thinking, I

know what everybody thinks of me.

DETECTIVE JOHNSON

Dalia...you can go home I will call

you back another day once I get more

information

INT. INSIDE THE INTERROGATION ROOM/ INSIDE THE POLICE STATION

- MORNING

3 3

Dalia runs out of the interrogation room and once she hits

the hallway where all the police officers are, she slows down

but she still anxiously walks out the police station.

Stage 4: Production

 The production portion of making our film was definitely a learning experience for me and my group members as well. Our main source of technology was our phones, we had our script on our phones practicing and rehearsing our lines. We used our phones to record our whole opening scene. Some other technology that we used was a ring light and also a green screen. So what I learned about using production technology is that every single element matters, whether you have lighting or no lighting, using certain audio, holding the camera a certain way is what I learned. I also learned that all of the elements help make each other. For example, let's say that you are shooting a very happy scene, you have your actors dancing, and your happy music playing. If the lighting is not happy and bright than the viewers may not fully understand what you wanted them too. Actually we went in based off of prior knowledge and what we already knew how to do with the technology. Of course we got a little he...

Editing Software

                                      Editing Software     The three online video editing packages I chose were Openshot.org, Clipchamp.com, and video pad video editor. The reason These three made it to the final list is because I saw how they all worked and these three worked the best out of the rest that I have tried. The reason Openshot.org made it to the final three is because the app had all the required features like being web based, and able to lay multiple tracks. The reason that I did not use Openshot.org as my final editing package is because it did not have the collaboration feature included. The reason Video pad video editor made it to the final three is because it met all of the requirements like pulling audio off video tracks, and being able to lay multiple tracks and having the collaboration feature. The reason I did not choose Video pad video editor as the final editi...

Stage 1 intro

 The film that I am trying to make is a crime thriller film. The basic genre conventions of my movie is a dark kind of closed in theme where the style is pretty plain and grey. The theme of our film is like a rime but a thriller at the same time. The other opening sequences are usually flashbacks and flashforwards a lot of the time to give off the thriller portion in the crime genre. An opening sequence can reveal meaning without giving out to much by give you an important detail that may happen later on in the story or before the story. This will leave the viewer asking why was this shown? or, What makes this so important? and Why is it important? Tone can give of a certain type of vibe leaving you asking why was this song chosen to open the movie? Or, why is this piece of dialogue the first thing that they want me to hear? etc.  The action depends on the genre and who wrote it and directed it, but the first two minutes can either be the most important and informative or the ...
