  1. Some very promising planning Will. I saw a very effective camera movement and angle on "The Killing" (BBC4 Danish thriller) where a low angle shot of a camera panning up the back of a chair was ominous; the shot made the chair look menacing. You could use a similar shot of the boy finding his father, low angle shot of back of sofa, with camera panning up the back of-+ chair until it reaches an over the shoulder shot of the father's head. Of course at this stage the boy hasn't discovered his father is dead. You could practise this shot.

    How are you going to record bird sounds?
