10 Second Breakdown of the Plot

Setting: Early evening in a derelict village on a small foresty road.

0 - 10 Seconds - Young girl on a jog running down the road.
10 - 20 seconds - Girl runs past a house, stops to look, carries on running but keeps looking back at entrance of the house.
20- 30  Seconds - Camera pans down the driveway up to a creepy house then stops. (no characters involved at this point) Then the camera looks up at a window where a man is standing, looking out.
30 - 40 Seconds - Camera zooms into the man standing at a window (slowly). Then half way,  the screen scratches out and when the shot comes back on, the man is gone. But the camera continues to zoom.
40 - 1.40 Seconds - For a minute, whilst the credits are shown, we will film things like paper being scratched, needles threaded lots of writing, photos, books etc. Gives audience an idea that the house has something about it because it is being investigated.
1.40 - 1.50 Minutes -Back to house, but man standing in entrance with his head down. Camera slowly zooms into the man, half way - scratches screen again and title comes up.
1.50 - 2 Minutes -  Camera goes back on house and keeps zooming until extreme close up of man's head, then he lifts up his head - scary face.
