Locations for shooting

To live up to the criteria of the coursework board, I am going to shoot at two different locations within the three minute piece.


The first location will be in my garage at home, where the off the grid interrogation will take place. The settings will then transverse to a field near my house in which the character Aidan Murphy will shoot Josh Jenkinson in the head.


Both of these locations will have limited natural lighting as the scene is set at night. So I will have to make sure I have a lighting technician on my crew when it comes to me filming. I will have to pay extra attention to the lighting in the scenes. I may equipped one of the detectives with a torch to not only make a clever source of light, but also make the scene more realistic with use of props.

Seven - Textual analysis

I watched an 8 minute clip from the film multiple times and analysed different aspects of the construction of the scenes such as the mise-en-scene, the lighting, the camera, and most importantly for this particular film, the characters. This is because the characters in this scene are very similar to the characters I would like to construct in my coursework At this point in the movie, in the beginning of act three, after the previous story twists, our expectations of what is to come are already well set up. But here John Doe is very confident and repeatedly emphasizes the impact of his coming act. This raises even more the audience expectation and triggers an almost unbearable curiosity for the climax.
