I have therefore started to generate possible ideas:
Flash backs;
Scene 1
- Camera 1: Mid shot (front view)
- Camera 2: Close up (two faces, left angle)
Setting: Garden
The couple of the bench in a garden. This would establish the couple, as they were, in a seemingly happy and relaxed setting, it would show the audience what an onlooking may see when walking past, an image of perfection.The girl will be in the boys arms, his arm around her, holding hands. close up on their hand. Eye contact, smiles and relaxed conversation, close up on their smiles and eyes. This would emphasis the relaxed nature of their relationship, which is juxtaposed with the new scenes of their current unsettled and distressing set up.

Scene 2
-Camera 1: Long shot (from behind)
-Camera 2: Long shot (behind the trees)
-Camera 2 (take 2): Mid-close up
Setting: Garden
The couple would walk hand in hand through the garden in which the bench was situated. This is a typical setting for romance and happiness, as they are surrounded by nature. Long shots are more appropriate in this scene as it is about capturing the couple and their body language, as well as their surroundings, rather than close ups which would reflect the emotions.
Examples of effective shots used in the media:
Scene 3
-Camera 1: Mid-close up
- Cameras 2: Long shot
Setting: lounge
The couple dancing in the lounge. I want a long shot to show their close body language and set the scene of happiness. Obviously the audience would need to be able to see the actual dancing and movement in order to make the shot effective.The mid-close up would enable the audience to see the emotions and love in the faces of the couple, whilst still capturing the movement. Dancing is typically related to happiness and letting go, therefore, I thought it was important to involve such a symbolic scene.
Argument;
Scene 1
-Camera 1: Long Shot
-Camera 2: Close up
-Camera 2(take 2) : Mid low angle
Setting: Kitchen
The couple in a kitchen, the girl clearly distressed, holding her hands on her head, whilst the boy looks angry, constantly shacking his head, contrasting the two gender stereotypes. The girl is typically the mellow dramatic, emotional, one in the relationship, where as the man generally expresses anger and aggression rather than solemn emotions. The body language needs to be shown, but the emotions and anger of both people are just as important, therefore, we want to get a variety of differing shots.
Scene 2
-Camera 1: Mid shot (for both girls and boys room)
-Camera 1 (take 2): High mid shot (girls room)
-Camera 2: Close up (girl and boy)
-Camera 2 (take 2): Long shot (girl and boy)
Setting: bedroom
We needed a range of shots in order to really convey the heightened emotions within the scene. The mid shot, for both the female and male, was good as we were able to capture their body language. This would aid the reflections of emotions, and also be a good comparison of the couple. It would also allow the audience to see the outfit change, to that which portrayed the solemn tone intended.
The high mid shot was used for the girl in order to show her on a smaller scale. I thought she would look more vulnerable and effected with this shot.
The close up is obviously to present the different emotions in the couples' faces, possibly addressing the male and female stereo types. For example, the male showing anger and annoyance, where as the female sorrow and tears. I also tried an extreme close up on the girls eyes in order to capture the raw emotion.

The long shot used for both is to establishing them in their room setting.
Scene 3
-Camera 1: Long shot
-Camera 2: Mid shot
-Camera 2: Close up (boy looking back in the mirror)
Setting: Road-street
This is the punultimate scene when the boy leaves, driving away. This needs to convey the ultimate sorrow of the girls, and the closure of the boy, as he finally leaves. The road represents the 'end of the road' in the couples relationship. The audience was able to follow them on a journey, which has now come to an end. The long shot is therefore very important as it shows the whole scene, as the car drives away and leave the girl. The closer shots are obviously needed in order to portray the intense emotions, of both individuals.
