9 Key Frames - Planning

To make sure I am fully prepared for doing the 9 key frames shoot I have compiled a shot list, this help me know everything I'm, doing on the day.

9 Key Frames – Shot Types:

1. Medium angle, wide long establishing shot of both thugs (Tommy and John) along with teenage boy (Len) walking. Tommy and John appear more prominent by taking up more of the shot. The wide establishing shot helps show location of the estate (congruent as being a continuing aspect from the original film) and the medium angle on all characters represent the neutral position they have in-terms of their power.

2. Low angle, POV over the shoulder shot of both Tommy and John intimidating Len. The low angle shows Tommy and John's power over Len and the POV shot over the shoulder shot shows Lens point-of-view as he being submissive looking up at Tommy and John - the dominant characters, this also helps foreshadow what is to come.

3. High angle, medium close-up on Len getting wallet robbed by Tommy and John. The high angle represents Len's lack of power and also creates a more omniscient atmosphere in which all characters are being looked down on, this shot still shows the power of Tommy and John with them being more prominent and the use of levels in the shot to convey their power.

4. Low angle, medium shot on Harry Brown walking in the road. The low angle shows Harry's power and conveys to the audience he's on the same level of power as Tommy and John. The mid-shot also shows his significance as he appears very prominent in the shot.

5. Medium angle, medium close-up on Harry pushing Tommy away as they square up. The medium angle close-up brings out the facial expression and tension levels between Harry and Tommy, as they are both in mid-shot, both characters appear to be at the same level of power.

6. Medium angle, wide shot of Len and Harry looking at one another from sides of the road. The medium angle captures both characters looking at each other with equal eye levels, and this also helps in establishing a relationship between both characters as they both do this action simultaneously.

7. Low angle, medium close-up on Harry punching Tommy who has his hands on Harry. The low angle shows Harry's dominance over Tommy, also combined with the use of levels, the shot conveys Harry's superiority.

8. Low angle, medium close-up on Harry’s punching John. The low angle confirms that Harry has gained power over both thugs and the medium close-up establishes facial and physical expressions of both characters in reaction to the punch.

9. Medium angle, medium close-up on Harry and Len walking together with wallet in Len's hand whilst he goes to shake Harry’s hand, as he smiles. The medium angle shows Harry and Len being on the same level of power and the wallet in shot establishes Harry as a vigilante taking the law into his hands and getting the outcome he proposed for.
