- Shot 1 - The film starts off with a Panning shot of the surrounding buildings around the area. I got this idea from Psycho in the beginning of the film where there was a panning shot of the tall buildings of Phoenix.
- Shot 2 - The film then cuts to a Medium Close up shot of Hollie while she is texting and crossing through the bridge. The use of the Medium close-up shot brings focus to the character. An example of this came from Jackie Brown when Jackie was walking through the terminal.
- Shot 3 - The film then cuts to a Over The Shoulder shot of Hollie as she walks through dimly lit wet streets. The use of a Over The Shoulder shot shows another presence and also puts the audience into the character's position.
- Shot 4 - The film then cuts to a Extreme Close Up shot of Hollie's friend lying on the wet floor while she has her phone on the other hand flashing.
- Shot 5 - The film then cuts to a Close up shot of Hollie's face which shows her emotions, how scared and terrified she is.
- Shot 6 - The film then cuts to a Tilt shot a mysterious figure in a doorway. The use of the Tilt shot shows disorientation and confusion. A example of this would be from The Third Man where Harry Lime was introduced.
- Shot 7 - The film ends a cliffhanger. So the opening would either end as a Close-up shot of Hollie's face being terrified or a Close-up shot of the mysterious figure.
