Sypnosis and Shots

Sypnosis
A girl lives in Hastings by the beach. She is rebellious and she spends a lot of her time with her friends and little time at home. One evening she meets a friend and they begin drinking on the beach. She becomes unconcious and wakes up in a strange place, and the film is about her escape back home and what she encounters.

Narrative
The shot begins panning across the skyline of the beach at sunset, establishing setting - EWS (Extreme Wide Shot) as camera pans.
Then there is a MS (Mid shot) of a signpost, detailing various destinations in Hastings.
There is a several shots of the same scenery, this scenery is waves crashing against the shore, the first shot is a WS (Wide Shot) then a MS (Mid Shot) then a MCU (Medium Close Up) Then finalizing on a CU (Close Up Shot).
The camera then switches to a MS (Mid Shot) of the protagonist and a character sitting on a ledge drinking and talking.
Then the camera goes to a VWS (Very wide shot) of the road beside the beach which shows cars travelling past, and another insight to setting.
The camera then returns to a LS (Long Shot) of the protagonist and another character sitting in the same position drinking.
Then the camera comes closer to a CU (Close up) of the two characters, some dialogue is heard here.
The camera then reverts back to the first shot, of the skyline using a EWS (Extreme Wide Shot) but no panning.
The shot then fades out and fades into a EWS (Extreme Wide Shot) of an underground car park.
The protagonist is seen in the distance stumbling towards the camera from far away. Still staying in EWS (Extreme Wide Shot).
The camera then changes to WS (Wide shot) and from a side view you watch the protagonist stumble towards a puddle.
Then I use a  CI (Cut In shot) so you can only see the protagonists ankles as she stumbles through the puddle. Water reflects picture.
Then the camera changes to a MS (Mid Shot) as the protagonist stumbles towards some stairs.
A front view of the protagonist stumbling towards stairs, using same shot, MS (Mid Shot).
Then the camera changes to infront of the protagonist as she sits on the stairs and puts her head in her hands, three different shots, as the camera moves closer to her face, begin with MCU (Medium Close Up Shot) then a CU (Close Up Shot) then finalizing with a CU (Close up Shot).
The protagonist then gets up, side view, MS (Mid shot) as she falls to floor, camera reverts to WS (Wide Shot) then back to MS (Mid Shot).
The camera then switches to POV (Point of View shot) and camera fades in and out as protagonist looks at surroundings, camera panning from POV (Point of view shot).
