Amendments to The Chief Ispector Dialogue

After discussing the chief inspector scene with the actors involved, it was decided that Mr Aherne would decide upon his dialogue spontaneously. This was done so that the scene would seem genuine, and myself and Gaz could respond accordingly to the unexpected dialogue. We recorded the scene, and are very pleased with how life-like the scene appears. These are the corresponding changes:

Chief Inspector Scene:

Actors: Mr. Aherne, Tom, Gaz

Camera starts behind Tom and Gaz, and is low angle (to make the chief seem more powerful). The chief is in the centre of the shot, between Tom and Gaz.

Mr. Aherne: "Let me get this right. I want to make it plain to you two donuts! You've made a total mess-up of this operation, and frankly you are so pathetic that if I never saw you again it would be soon enough!"

The camera now cuts to a point-of-view shot of Mr. Aherne, showing Tom and Gaz scared.

Mr. Aherne: "However! You've got one chance to get this operation done right. And look at the state of you, get yourself a disguise!"

This is where the scene would end and the disguise scene would begin. We will also edit the scene so that the disguise music starts after Mr. Aherne says 'However'. This way the music could start off quietly, building up, and increasing tension. By the time that the disguise scene begins, the music would be at full volume which will suggest that this paricular scene is fast-paced or exciting.
