Tone

I would film. This in a slightly darker tone as the issues that will be dealt with are very negative, so I would want to reflect that in the way the programme looks. I would also have music that is not as up beat as other television programmes as I do not think that it will help create the mood if the sound does not match the film. However I would try and have a few moments of comedy in order to lighten the mood for a moment, as I believe that this would make thr story more engaging for the audience.

This shot would be good, as the light is just right, however this looks too much like a doctor's waiting room, so I would make this more business like me have the people in suits and not reading magazines.

This inspired me because I could imagine something happening within the orchard, and no one knowing due to them being well hidden. This was the starting point for my script, so I needed to develop a story from this. The idea of a murder came from the effectiveness of the orchard hiding whoever was in it, so I thought that this was the perfect place for a murderer to commit his crime. In wanted my story to have a twist, so I thought of a person stumbling across the murder scene, and the killer giving the innocent person a choice of either possible death, or helping with the body and walking away. I thought that this was a good idea as it is a scenario not often seen in films, so was a unique twist. Between the scripts that I wrote for my short film ‘Decision’, I had to change quite a lot in order to make it more e...
