Draft Script for our Thriller Opening

Script

The camera scans across rigidly the black and white photographs of the victim as well as the documents typed up by the investigators. Maps are laid out all over the table with red lines and crosses drawn over them, showing routes that the murderer could have taken and the place of the murder. After a while, you see the detective picking up items from the table he is working at and inspecting them closely with the magnifying glass under the lamp. A close-up shot is taken of the detectives face looking very uneasy as he's looking at the case. The camera moves swiftly on back to the case, zooming in even closer on to the evidence and scanning across it. A glass of water will be sitting on a table top with a packet of paracetamol that will be opened. You will only be able to see the hands opening the paracetamol and the glass being picked up when the scene will be cut completely to a black out where the title of the film come across.

the reason that our script is so short is because most of what the audience are going to see will be images and short montaged clips which will make the introduction more interesting and more mysterious.
