Script - Everlasting Journey

SCRIPT
***Scene 1***
[Opening Shot: Train pulls into the station and the shot stays facing directly straight forwards as it pulls up. Train doors opening at Stoneleigh Station and revealing the body of a possessed looking teenage girl lying in blood on the floor. The camera should appear to flicker and during this time a close up should appear on the screen for a tiny period of time (to be decided during the filming process.) The whole shot should be filmed on a tripod and there should be no camera movement until the train doors have shut again. This shot should be prolonged on purpose for essentially the duration of a train stopping. Other footage can be edited in here of close ups of blood and the girls eyes who could have spooky contact lenses in. This shot should be silent. There could be the enhanced sound of trains moving though.]
{Teenage Girl 1 stretches her hand out towards the door pleading just as the doors begin closing}
[The shot that has been still throughout the first period of time should then pan down towards the floor and capture the blood stained shoes of the killer/stalker/murderer.]
{Murderer drops knife covered in blood onto the floor}
[Match on action shot captures the knife from ground level as it hits the floor. Enhanced diegetic sound of a knife being dropped]
[Close up and extreme close up of knife edited quickly together]

[Murderer carries on filming from his perspective and carries the camera around the station]
[Close up shots of scars and appearance of other victims at the station all located at different points:
-Teenage Girl 2: tied up on station platform sign
[Over the shoulder shot of murderer talking to girl tied up and her facial expressions are captured as she appears to be screaming and frightened. Murderer has frayed, cut rope in his hand.]
-Teenage Boy 2: waiting room dead

[blurry shots approaching dead person who has a petrol can next to them and water on the floor to appear like he has had petrol poured on him. Match on action shot from side angle of murderer to a match being striken. Low angle shot as the match is being dropped and then cuts to black before you see it hit the ground.]
{Teenage boy 1 begins running into the distance and camera stays still as he gets smaller as he walks away whilst lights automatically turn on as he runs underneath them. This would leave a main character alive to potentially create a sequel.]

[Last shot is of murderer looking at his watch]
***Scene 2***

[Teenage boy 1 looking at his watch in daytime at exactly the same spot. Train is going past in the background to demonstrate normality]
{actors laughing and joking on the train platform}

OI OI

ALRIGHT MATE *SPUD*

BUZZING
[close up shots of actors on train, happy. They don’t know they are being filmed. Camera is shaking with the movement of the train. Focus should shift in and out slightly to create and enigma code of something happening.]

[Last shot is of teenage girl 1 as doors close behind her and she turns around smiling.
