First attempt of my script for my film opening


                                                     


As the initial step to creating an opening sequence, I started creating a script for my opening sequence.  

Below is the script I wrote:


                                                    OPENING SEQUENCE SCRIPT


                                                          Bedroom Night

Wide shot of Sarah reading a book while she is on the bed and reaching her hand to the phone after  

hearing a notification message. "Hey, can you let me in? I'm outside your door."  After seeing this, she is 

getting shocked and confused: What's this a message from my own number?


                                                                                                                                        CUT TO:


                                                              Living Room Night

Medium close-up shot of Sarah watching outside through the door peephole. Close up shot of the 

outside area. Mid shot of  Sarah texting on the phone asking "who is this?".  Again, she got a message

saying, "It's me you're inside, right?". The pan movement of Sarah being confused, looking around the  

living room. 


                                                                                                                                       

Medium close-up shot of the message "Check your phone camera roll". Extreme close up shot of the 

phone scrolling into the photos and Sarah's face before trying reacting to it a video message arrives.

POV shot of Sarah's trembling fingers pressing play.


                                                                                                                                       CUT TO:


POV shot of laptop screen. everything goes normal, and suddenly an AI video of herself appears and 

blinks, smiles and says, "Sarah, you are no longer needed". 


                                                   

                                                 High angle shot of Sarah seeing and panicking

and suddenly the light flickers in her living room and while laughing the sound of the AI Sarah, the light 

                                                        goes off in real Sarah's apartment.  



                                                                              END



Learning Outcome
After writing and reviewing my script, I realized that it lacked the proper structure of editing, shooting and narration. 
However, it did give my sequence a certain structure, and I'm considering this script as a backbone for my final product. Also, it will be helpful for my mock shoot and for my storyboard.
