Location and Opening Shot



Here are some primary source photos I took myself the other day.
The first photo was a tunnel under a train track that I thought would be really good for performace scene. Moreover the lighting at the time (around 3pm) looked fantastic. The more natural lighting we can use the better. The tunnel was on a public footpath so we would have no problem with accessing it however we must be careful due to the amount of rubble etc there is.
The second photo was a tunnel under the m25 near my house. I thought this location would be really good for our opening shot, which we planned to have a tracking shot of our main character running. I like that the tunnel is really bare and simple.
For our opening shot we plan on using the black screens that open up similar to that of Metronomy's - The Bay. We also wanted to have the girl running with a flare similar to the ones used in Rihanna's video and Hurtwood House's coursework.




Before our actual opening shot we've decided to have a short "prologue" in which we will set the story of our narrative. They will include quick fast shots demonstrating the relationship between our characters. We've decided to have it practically silent for dramatic effect. We've looked at examples such as Maroon 5 - She Will Be Loved and The A Team - Ed Sheeran.
