Synopsis

Plot idea 1: The opening shot will show two close-up shots of different suitcases being closed in two contrasting locations. The first location being the preparation of the suitcase with the money being put in, the second location being the second suitcase being filled with the jewelery, the third location consists of the two suitcases being carried by two people through the center of town to the meeting point.

The first shots of the sequence will involve darker and slower transitions and as we work through to the penultimate moment the transitions speed up as the music gets louder and the atmosphere becomes more tense.

Two groups of criminals meet up and switch suitcases in the middle of town, where it’s public so it’s less suspicious. One group get home to find that what was supposed to be £500,000 of jewelery was actually pieces of newspaper. In the other suitcase that contained £500, 000 worth of jewelery.


Plot idea 2: Live action shots followed by freeze-frame shots in the style of a camera photography focusing on key action points from the sequence. The live action shot will be filmed from a point of view from a camera man hiding in bushes with long shots looking at the action, then zooming closer to the character with a freeze frame with a camera flash effect then a sepia or black and white still of the character. On the freeze frame the character's name will be displayed next to the image of their face.

The camera man will follow the action to a park at the side of the meeting place, still focusing on the group from the previous scene. Then the group of three characters will cross to the meeting place, looking around for anyone watching, then trading briefcases with the other person.
