Synopsis
We have two scenes within the opening, each scene is split between a shot of the title scene. In our first scene we have a woman in a house. She is desperately searching through her photo albums, and at the end of the scene she realises she has a photo missing. In the second scene, we see a man at the edge of a cliff, holding the photo that the woman is missing.
We have decided we will have no dialogue, and will rely on non-diegetic music, sound effects, lighting and editing in order to make it more dramatic and enigmatic as the dialogue doesn’t answer any of the questions that are forming in the viewer’s mind.
One location is a house and the other is a cliff.
Props: we will need a photo, as this is what is most significant within both scenes and is what will raise most questions. We also need lots of photo albums in order to signify that there is a missing photo.
Costume: we would like to show contrasting characters in order to raise more questions as to how these characters are linked; therefore we will portray this through costume. The woman will have neat, sophisticated clothing. We got our idea for the woman’s costume from the Desperate Housewives (see photo on blog) where she has pearl earrings with a matching cardigan and top set, to build this image of a stereotypical housewife. However, the man will be wearing a hoodie and jeans, to give the effect that he is not as privileged, making their connection more confusing for the audience.
We are filming on a cliff; therefore the lighting will be hard to control ourselves. However, we would like to use low-key lighting and so therefore we will make the shot dimmer whilst editing. In the house though, we can control lighting. We would like to use high-key lighting to create realism.
