The Monkey: Shot List

Establishing Shot: The film opens with an establishing shot of an apartment building at night which holds for a few seconds and at the the center of the shot is a window that is dimly lit. The shot will be filmed with a drone to achieve the desired height.


Medium Shot: The characters share playful dialogue meant to show their chemistry and portray that they are friends and close confidants.


Medium Shot: A shot of the television screen is shown to help us follow the video game that the friends are playing.


Medium Shot: The scene cuts back to the same medium shot of the characters reacting to the video game.


Mid Shot: The scene cuts to our main character Corey saying goodbye to his friends as they leave his apartment.


Tracking Shot: The camera follows behind our main character as he goes around doing menial tasks mixed with the horror ambiance.


Close-Up: Close-up shot to show expression of suspicion and confusion.


Wide Shot: A hallway is then transitioned to, showing an eerily lit walk way meant to create tension within the viewers. Our main character Corey walks out of frame into the kitchen and behind him you see a white mask peering out of the closet watching him.


Mid/Wide Shot: Corey is seen taking chicken out of the fridge and preparing it on the counter.


Over the Shoulder Shot: A quick growl and whimper is heard from the dog as the camera stays over Corey's shoulder as he looks on straight into this dark hallway


Tracking Shot: The camera follows Corey as he investigates the dog's cry coming from the dark hallway


Close Up Shot: A close up on Corey's face as he inches towards the door as the music builds up along with the tension


Low Angle Shot: After the closet door is opened a low angle shot within the closets perspective shows Corey's reaction to what he finds, horrified Corey runs away


Medium Shot: Corey horrified and stumbling about, runs to a landline to phone the police only to be met by a dead silence as the phone lines have been cut


Low-Mid Shot: Corey falls down to the floor crying. He sits in a fetal position with his back against the bed.
