Main Task Concept/Idea...

Our first two opening minutes of our film sequence is as follows...

18 year old man, dressed in lower class clothing smoking a cigarette. Rough hair and clothes.

Establishing shots: Pan along the floor until we reach the feet of the character.
4-5 establishing character shots: Sparking up a cigarette, twitching with his fingers, bowing his head.
High angled over the shoulder shot of the newspaper blowing in the wind on the bench, we see the character pick up the newspaper.
Mid shot of the newspaper being opened out.
Pan along the news paper, lots of quick edits of words within the article about the stabbing that has taken place.
Close up of characters reaction.
Mid shot of newspaper, the camera dives into the fight scene in the paper.
Dim lighting produced with torches & candles as fight/scramble between two lower class lads in an alley way takes place. Lots of low/high/ interesting angles. There are other people in the alley spurring the boys on.
The action suddenly rewinds to the scene where the character is sitting on the bench.
Close up of smoke rewinding from the camera back into the characters mouth.
Several close ups of the character twitching as before and to his face looking confused.
Over the shoulder shot of the character picking up the newspaper again, this time, it has a different article ( as if the event never took place ).
