Scratch - Credits

We will use a specific order for the credits within the opening sequence. It has to be correct, otherwise certain people will look to be more important than others. This is almost a hierarchy for credit order.

FILM NAME

This is according to both my own notes, and the BBC website which can be found here.

Scratch
For 'Scratch', we only plan on using a certain selection of these credit titles, as not all of them are necessary to our film. The titles we won't use are:

2x other supportign actors
Costume Designer
Production Designer
Director of Photography

All the other titles could be combined to suit our needs.

Scratch - Basic Story Plan

My thriller opening combines both present footage and flashbacks. It is one complete flashback - all in black and white, and it is meant to look like it is being shown on a projector. Between each shot, the credits will be shown in present footage. The film will be called 'Scratch', and each credit will be scratched into some sort of object.

Plan
A man walks into a big building, down a corridor. He walks into a room, sits down at his desk, and writes a letter, saying 'Its done'. He then smashes his wedding photo, which is sat on his desk. As he smashes it, a large bang occurs outside, and he is alerted. He stands up, calls out, and sees nothing. Suddenly the shady figure walks into the room, points a gun at the man, and a large stand-off occurs. Muttering is heard, then a large gunshot. The shot cuts to a man scratching a 5 into a tally chart on a wall.
