I thought that this building could be quite effective for a thriller film, as it is an abandoned barn, which is falling down. There are lots of places where there are holes in the walls, which I thought would be good as we could shoot through them, someone walking past them or someone looking through them. In the correct lighting and weather, this building would have a much eerier feel.
Near the abandoned barn, there was also a derelict house. I thought this could be another effective location for a thriller, as it looked quite dark and threatening, with smashed windows and graffiti connoting a setting for crime.
I also looked inside the house and found the entrance itself looked quite frightening, as the wood from the door frame was rotting, the paint was chipping and there was rubble on the floor.
I looked closer at the stairs, and found that the walls in the house were similar to the ones in the barn; there were holes in the walls which could be effective for shooting through.
I thought this street in Norwich at night looked quite frightening, and the lighting from the street lamps makes it look shadowy and threatening. The fact that there were hardly any people here also seemed quite eerie; there was just one person walking down the street. Also, there is a vanishing point, as there is a turn in the road.
Some fantastic shots Georgia. The derelict house and the low angle night street of Norwich offer great potential to shoot the opening to a dark thriller film.
ReplyDeleteOf course you could have somebody finding a body or somebody injured in the derelict house, or an abandoned car by the house and somebody goes to investigate, is attacked and dragged into the house and manages to escape....end of opening sequence but what happens!!!
Keep up the good work.
I need to see more of your planning, for example story boards, costume design, props and so on. You also need to use a variety of camera angles, don't forget all the practice shots you did for your preliminary task.
