Setting Ideas:

These are a collection of photos I took, whilst scouting for places to set my short film, in which I will most likely shoot my film. I decided to find places which would fit neatly in to my storyboard and narrative, needing a forest and numerous flashback sequences which would be set in urban settings such as, in one instance, a park swing (shown in the first photograph). I decided to take photographs to give me an idea as to what the setting was like, and allowed me to premeditate where I was going to do my shooting of the film. This will allow me to shoot my short film a lot quicker as I already have the locations for the on-location shootings planned. I added a model, another film studies student and a friend, in my photographs in order to give them scope and depth, highlighting where my actor would be placed if I was to use the actual location. The mise en scene isn't strict in this instance as she is only used to reflect where the camera and actor will be positioned in accordance of each other, and therefore on some photographs, she may be using a phone, as well as posing for the camera. This also allowed me to test different camera angles, and see what angle/distance was best suited for what I was trying to convey.
