Settings are very important to creating a good film, if you pick bad settings which dont match your genre, your film wont be convincing and consequently will not be popular. This is why we put alot of time and effort in to make sure that we found the right setting to film our movie opening.
The Alleyway
The alleyway was a very important opening setting becuase it sets the scene for the rest of the film, it is urban and is quite sinister. This setting matches the characters personalities which emphaises the dakness and the sinister mood of our film. We also chose this alleyway becuase it is somewhere which a drugdeal may happen becuase it is concealied and out of the way.
The Car Park
This is the car park where "Doyle" will meet his mates, we chose this car park becuase it is dark and sinister like the alleyway. It is very important that the alleyway and the car park are both scary and sinister so that it matches the codes and conventions of our genre. When "Doyle" walks over to his mates they are all stood in a huddle, adding to the mise en scene of our opening sequence.
The Exit from the Car Park
After "Doyle" meets his mates in the car park, there will be a shot of them walking out of the car park. This shot also shows a rough setting, everthing is over grown and not looked after and this compliments our characters personalities perfectly.
This shot will also be taken in dusk which adds a sinister mise-en-scene.
Murph's Bedroom
This setting is in "Murph's" bedroom, it will be bare and will have not have distinctive features, this is becuase our characters do not have much money and this setting should reflect this and this is why we chose this setting. This part of the film will also be shot in the dusk to add a sinister feel to match the rest of the film.
The Indoor Car Park
The Car Park used in the final scene was made out to be a sinister place, we did this on purpose so that it would grab the veiwers attention. This will be shot at night time to make is feel more serious and scarier. The two gangs will square up to eachother and there will be lots of suspense.
