Jedi battle arena

 Star Wars the attack of the clones. Jedi arena battle scene.
Set in an arena, as it is meant to be out side the light is from above. The scene starts with a mid shot of someone legs as they walk the music playing at this point is done by trumpets. Then they stop and there is a cut to an over the shoulder shot over the person walking. Over their shoulder you can see Count Dooku, Jango Fett, Poggle and other members of the separatist. This makes you think what’s going to happen, who is that. He starts walking again. Then a cut to Amidala, Anakin and Obi-wan on the beast with six Droideka around them this is a long shot to show that they are on there own. At this point you think that they are going to die. As one of the Drodieka walks forwards the beast moves back. Cut to Jango and young Bobor a hand is just visible at the side of the screen, this is a mid shot. Suddenly a purple light saber comes on. Jango jumps back in surprise. This is to show that he was not excepting it and so was the viewer. Cut to over the shoulder of what you know now to be Mace Windu. Dooku spins around slowly to face Mace. His face shows that he is not shocked by Mace being there. He greets Mace with a smile as to show that they are old friends. Cuts to a side mid shot showing Mace holding his light saber across Jangos knack, it shows Dooku facing him with Poggle next to him and a scared looking Bobor. Cut to a close up of Mace he says “this parties over.” Cut to a long shot it shows lots of Jedi activating their light sabers. Cut to another long shot showing two more Jedi activating there light sabers. In the background you can see Geonosis inhabitants flying away.  This is to show that they are scared. Then another cut showing two more Jedi activating their light sabers.  Then another two and another two. Then a cut to Amidala, Anakin and Obi-wan a look of shock and bewilderment on their faces. In the background you can see lots of Jedi’s set off their light sabers. This is to show the large number of Jedi that have come to help Amidala, Anakin and Obi-wan. Cut back to over the shoulder of Mace. Dooku says “brave but foolish my old friend.” This is to show that they knew one and other before this and they were friends and him looking down makes it seem like he is upset about meeting Mace again like this. Over Maces right shoulder you can see lots of little lights this is the other Jedi’s with their light sabers. Dooku then says “ You are out numbered.” Then there is a cut to over Dooku’s shoulder and Mace has a smile on his face as he says  “ I don’t think so.” Cut back to over Mace’s shoulder Dooku replies “we will see.”  Cut back to over Dooku’s shoulder as you hear a thumping sound. He spins around quickly. Cut to long shot looking down the corridor that Mace walked down at the start and there is something walking towards him. Cut to the other end of the corridor and you see four Super battle droids ready to shoot. They open fire. Cut to a close-up of Mace as he reflex the shots. Behind him it now looks like a twister as all the Geonosis inhabitants  are all trying to fly out at the same time. A cut to Jango he shoots fire at Mace this is a close up shot. Just as the fire was about to hit mace he jumps. Cut to Mace jumping in backwards in the air. The fire catches his robes setting them a light. This is a tracking shot that becomes a birds eye view of him hitting the ground. This makes you think only a Jedi could jump from that height and live. Cut to a mid shot as he lands he quickly throws off his smoking jacket. Behind him you can see some battle droids coming toward him. At this point you just want to scream look out behind you as is done when you are watching a panto. Cut showing what was left of the crowd are just about to fly off. Cut to long shot showing the droids running forwards. And it also shows that what Dooku said about being out numbered may be true and also you can see Amidala, Anakin and Obi-wan still surrounded. The camera then trackes left to show the Jedi running at the droids like an old battle scene were one army runs into the other.  I like the build up to this battle its good because it sets up things like the Jedi coming out of hiding and Mace and Dooku saying that they knew one and other before.
