Script
The Script for our film extract is quite short as it is not a main part of the film.
Characters - Brad, Danielle, Miriam
Danielle - "What do you want from us?"
Miriam - "You know what you did!... What know perfectly well you have done..." She gestures to Brad dissaprovingly.
Danielle and Brad slowly kneal upwards and Danielle looks at brad in Shock.
Miriam - "... and now you will pay."
Brad - Miriam, stop and just think about what you are doing!"
Miriam - "THINK! Thinking doesn't get you anywhere, I prefer to go on instinct." Miriam starts admiring her gun.
Brad - "On my count of three, run..." - whispering into Danielles ear "... 1, 2, 3!"
Then Danielle and Brad start running from the direction they came.
Our script may change when changing depending on the mood when it comes to filming.

Costumes
For our film extract, the costumes will be pretty simple. Brad and Danielle will be wearing normal outfits such as tops, coats, jeans and wellies. So basically wear clothing for outdoor use.
Miriam needs to stand out from the other two. Her hair will be messy and big, she wears glasses, and a dress with a scarf wrapped around her arms and body. We want her to look like she doesn't care about her appearence and gypsi - like, so it will portray her mental illness. However, underneath all that, she is pretty, but that is covered up her illness.

Props
The props we will need for the film extract is a gun, when Miriam tries to shoot Brad and Danielle, when chasing after them.
Casino Royale - Cinematography
At the beginning of the scene, James Bond chases a man through a city and forest. This is what our chase scene at the end of our extract should be like. The shots are typically fast to match the action of the scene. At one point, the camera moves from side quickly to mimic the man running and swerving through the trees.
It also uses a point of view shot as the man is coming through the trees. It is effective as it makes the audience feel part of the action.
It uses many shots which we would also like to use in our film to make the action seem more exciting.

Chase scene analysis
We found a chase scene we thought we could take influence from. The music and style of filming was very affective. Our chase scene will mainly be a couple being chased by another woman with a gun, the soundtrack during the scene of the chase, we thought may suit our chase scene also. The shots used during the chase emphasise the importance of the character being followed, other characters are always shown behind him and shown to be not as intelligent as him. We thought we could take influence from this type of filming.

Our influences
As the extract of our film is based on a woman attempting to kill a couple, we decided that Mr and Mrs smith would be a suitable film to take influence from.
Scenes such as this,
Here the couple both know they have to kill each other, we decided we could form our scene similarly whereby the characters know they could be killed but don't show there emotions.
Scenes like this however show the couple fighting, clearly showing there emotions, it features many close ups and mid-range shots.
We decided to take influence in the style of filming from The Proposal. The way both actors are kept on screen during conversations instead of switching, for example showing over the shoulder shots of each character.

Our Idea
Idea
Characters
Man - Brad
Woman - Danielle
Mentally unstable woman - Miriam
Man - Brad
Woman - Danielle
Mentally unstable woman - Miriam
For our extract of our film, we had an idea about two women who had fallen in love with the same man. One is mentally unstable and jealousy over runs her when the man chooses the other woman over her. The film will be about her attempts to kill the other woman. Our scene will be one of the many failed attempts to kill the other woman.
Our scene will start by the man and the woman together as a couple, taking a walk in a deserted country lane but they don't know that the mentally unstable woman is following behind them holding a gun. She tries to shoot them without them realising and repeatedly misses. She runs after them but they hide in a ditch, making her give up until the next time.
