Planning the sequence- All of us

Our scenario of filming is going to be an interview held by a detective, and the interviewee is going to be a 'chavvy' female who declines having committed a crime. The detective will already be seating when the female walks into the room. The inspector will then say a few lies of speech, here the girl will have a bad attitude and talk back to the detective with no manners. We will use the 180 Degree Rule, Shot/Reverse Shot and Match On Action in the piece to aid continuity.

Location- Ettie Greenwood
We have chosen our location of filming to be at The Hub in our college. This is because we can get the room to low light levels to achieve a dark and serious atmosphere. The space is also open and quite bare so the location feels uncluttered.

Here are some images of the desired location:

 Props - Olivia Farren
As our scene is a police interview, we will need to use a table and two chairs for the two characters. To make this is realistic, we will have papers on the desk, as the detectives paperwork and also for them to write on, and a voice recorder also on the table, as well as a table lamp to complete the affect of the police interview room. We will also take a few pictures of objects to lay out on the table as evidence. We can circulate these props ourselves.

This is an example of what the desk in the interview will look like...

Lighting Design- Ettie Greenwood

When lighting our scene, we want to make the lighting fit the genre: thriller. Therefore the lighting technique we will use will be Key lighting . This lighting technique has a high/medium contrast between light and dark so it creates shadows on the characters faces and the surroundings. This therefore create a serious and intense atmosphere. We will use the table lamp as well to focus the light onto the desk to light up and highlight some of the main props. It is important that the audience can easily see these props and the characters so they can establish the context of the piece and what is happening. If the scene was too dark the audience would not be able to understand the context of the what was happening. The light from the table lamp will however still be dim so we do not loose the effects of the key lighting and use of dark space to create tension.

Here is an example of key lighting:

Costume - Natalie Sergeant 

                    

We will be having two characters in this shoot so two costumes will be needed. The first character that will be walking in will be the 'chav' as stated before. For the 'chav' we have the idea to stick with the typical stereotype, such as wearing trackie's, tank top and ugg boot's. Her make-up will be over the top and extrinsic. The actor will have over the top nails that are bright neon color's, with gold chain and hoop earrings as accessories. Her hair will be tied back in a slick ponytail with a scrunchy. 

The other character is the female inspector that will be sitting down. The inspector will have a different style than the 'chav' as she will be more smart looking. She will be wearing a black suit trousers and jacket with a white shirt, her make-up will be natural and not over powering. She will have high heels and with simple jewelry such as just having earring studs. Her hair will be straightened and down.
