Treatment

Our film opening starts with an establishing shot panning down a residential suburban street. It cuts to a slow zoom in on the front window of the house where film is set. An extreme close up of the detective’s hand, holding and clicking a pen is shown, followed by an extreme close up of the hand of the dead body sticking out from under a sheet. It slowly zooms in (match on action). The next shot is of objects on mantle, one out of place, panning across from left to right.

This is going to be followed by a mid shot of the body's forehead/hair sticking out of the sheet then a close up of the ceiling light, slowly zooming out. The next shot is of feet sticking out of the sheet, pull focus from one foot to the other. Followed by a slow zoom out of the painted pictures on the wall of which one is skewed.

The shots are a little bit random which add to the overall effect of our piece. Another extreme close up of the detective's hand, clicking a pen. Next there will be a slow zoom out of the bodies hair to reveal more of the scene, including the face and sheet.

Another extreme close up of the hand clicking the pen will be next, showing the detective stopping mid click followed by an extreme close up of the detectives eyes, suddenly darting sideways. The sound of footsteps will be heard which is what caught his attention. We see a close up of his mouth/the bottom half of face, smirking and then hhis head turns towards the door. An over the shoulder shot of detective’s sidekick entering the room is the final shot then it cuts to the titles.
