The document outlines the shooting script for a short film involving a girl named Beatriz in a mental institution. It describes the characters and actors playing each role. The script then details various shots that will be filmed, including Beatriz hearing voices in her head and seeing a vision of her dead father in a bathroom mirror. When a nurse tries to comfort her, the father's image remains. Beatriz runs away but finds herself trapped in a corridor with a scary crowd staring at her. She screams as the voices in her head return.

By: Roshani Perera, Mary-Grace Vicente and Beatriz Arredondo FINAL SHOOTING SCRIPT
Characters and actors • Beatriz Arredondo (will be referred to as Beatriz in the shooting script) – She will play the role of the girl in the mental institution. • David Alvin (will be referred to as David in the shooting script) – He will play the role of the girl’s Dad who appears in the mirror. • Roshani Perera (will be referred to as Roshani in the shooting script) – She will play the role of the nurse. • [Crowd]
Shot 1 Establishing shot of a dark, gloomy, empty corridor of an institution. - Beatriz at the very end of it, wearing a white hospital gown with her hair down and she has a pale face.
Establishing shot becomes a mid shot as Beatriz comes closer and as she walks down the corridor, the voices in her head build in layer; the closer she comes, the more layers there are. The voices whisper: “You are beautiful.” “You’re so gown up now.” “Come closer!” “Let me see.” “I’m not going to hurt you.” “Don’t tell anyone.” - These voices will be whispered by David
Panning shot of Beatriz as she stops and stands still because she’s unable to take the voices in her head. She suddenly screams “leave me alone!” whilst running into the toilet, which is next to her.
Match on action into the toilets. Inside the toilets, mid shot as she washes her face, attempting to wash away the voice in her head. Over the shoulder shot as she looks into the mirror to take a look at her face, she witnesses a scary appearance of her dead father. – White noise.
We see an introduction of Roshani. Camera moves to POV of the audience (through Roshani): a vision of Beatriz looking into the mirror - no appearance of her Dad (David).
Mid-shot of Nurse (Roshani) trying to comfort Beatriz by asking “are you ok?” as she touches her shoulder. While the nurse is talking to her, the image of the Dad continues to appear in the mirror. Two shot when Beatriz replies: “Don’t touch me!!” agressively.
Panning shot as Beatriz runs out of the toilets and back into the corridor Arc shot through the POV of Beatriz as she looks around where she’s trapped (in the corridor).
POV shot through Beatriz’s eyes, she sees crowd staring at her. The crowd all look scary (similar to the earlier image of her Dad that appeared in the toilet mirrors) Long shot leading into an Extreme close up as she walks backwards, in search of escape.
Mid shot as Beatriz tries to open the door. However, the door does not open and she realises she’s trapped. Close up as Beatriz hears voices in her head - same dialogue as before which state: “You are beautiful.” “You’re so gown up now.” “Come closer!” “Let me see.” “I’m not going to hurt you.” “Don’t tell anyone.” - These voices will be whispered by David
The Close up gradually becomes a Long shot. Once it has reached the point where it is a long shot, Beatriz will scream and the camera will black out.
