Excellent Decision!

edit

You have decided to start the movie with this frame:

  Fade In    



The Script

edit

EXTERIOR - The local movie theater - NIGHT

(1) The Young Person and Old Person stand looking at the movie poster outside the theater.



Now Show The Poster
Since the first shot is the Young Person and the Old Person, now you must show the poster. (The script mentions the movie so we need to show what movie they are talking about.)

Next Frame?

Option A
You can then cut to the poster.

 

Option B
You can cut to the poster over the shoulder of the Young Person and the Old Person.

Now Decide!
