Pitch for film dealing with people as props

I want to explore the idea of situations being different than what they first appear to be. I would like to move a camera through a space. My actors will hold a still position as I move through. This project would allow me to experiment with the technical ability to move smoothly through a space.

Sequence:

I want us as an audience to walk in the shoes of a police officer. The camera will be the eye of the officer. We pass by a man in business suit without a tie on, but have a big smile on his face. We are responding to a call. The neighbors heard strange noises coming from the house. We knock on the door only to realize that it is cracked. We enter the home. We pass through the living room and see dirty clothes tossed on the floor as well as a bottle of liquor concealed by a brown bag. We go down the hallway and pier into the kitchen. There is a man half naked on the floor with legs tied to hands. We look into the hall and there is a child pointing at the backdoor. There are dirty footsteps that stop at the kitchen. Pace of camera increases. We turn back towards the front of the house and see a tie on the floor.
