Lighting, Sound and Editing Research

Lighting, Sound and Editing Research

The lighting we would use would be natural lighting for our scene located in a woods. We would want it to seem as natural and as least staged as possible, therefore we chose to use natural lighting. 

For the scene located inside, replicating a police mans office, we would have low key lighting. This would be to create a sense of mystery as the audience aren't completely able to see the evidence. 

We would have lots of diegetic asychronous sounds of heavy breathing to build tension. This would turn into diegetic synchronous sound at points as at some points you are able to see Josh and Sophie's characters.

We would also have diegetic sychronous of Josh's phone ringing. This helps to add tension as the audience can see the source of the noise, but are unaware of who is on the end of the phone.

The editing we would use would be quick cuts, we would completely avoid fades. This is due to the fact that a fade would loose the tension we would be creating. The quick cuts would make the audience feel as though they are part of a disorientating scene.
