Floor Plan



This is the floor plan too our set in the studio, aswell as our logo towards the thriller.
This is the room of which we will be shooting in, prior to shooting we felt it was a good idea to arrange the way the room would be set out and how things were going to lookBy doing this we then were able to prepare a floor plan to assist us on aciding upon different camera positions & where things would be shot, and we were then able to plan our location set properly.


This is a floor plan with the ideal lighting set up.

Treatment

For our sequence we decided to go on the idea of a mental illness. We chose OCD as we thought that it brought an interesting view on a thriller. There are two people in our sequence. One of them is a man in his room in a clinic who suffers from the mental illness OCD. The other character is a Nurse who works at the clinic who occasionally treats the patient. The whole sequence takes place in the clinic. The general idea is that the patient at the clinic is trying to kill himself in a very OCD like manor. For example he is very precise with the electrocution kit he is using to kill himself. The man will measure out wires and cut them to perfection. While this is happening the nurse will be walking down the corridor. The tension is created by the suspense of weather the nurse will save the patient or not. We would do this by building a set in the TV studio of the mans room and filming a corridor which the Nurse will walk down. Are location for the man’s bedroom will be a set in the TV studio, and we will use one of the corridors in a house for the Nurse to walk down.Our sequence generates tension by the man setting up his death and seeing if the Nurse will save him in time.

Research and Devolment/ Insperation draw from other texts/ examples




Account of the research sources
In order to help us develop our initial idea we consulted a range of existing texts in order to observe their use of camera, sound, lighting, music, atmosphere , narrative ideas , casting etc...OCD-The main idea for our sequence is based on OCD, therefore I looked on google, and researched the facts and sources.We found that these are the symtoms --Thoughts, images, or impulses that occur over and over again and feel out of the person's control.-The person does not want to have these ideas.-He or she finds them disturbing and unwanted, and usually know that they don't make sense.-They come with uncomfortable feelings, such as fear, disgust, doubt, or a feeling that things have to be done in a way that is "just right."-They take a lot of time and get in the way of important activities the person values.We related the treatment issues of why he is in the clinic to how people really get treated for OCD.Getting professional help is the best way to deal with OCD. Treatment can help you to gain control over your obsessions and to stop carrying out compulsions. Treatment may include psychological treatments, medicines or a combination of these.

Synopsis - further devolpment/changes

After some disscusion we decided to make some fairly fundimental changes to our origional idea in order to make it more engaging and workable. The first change focused on who was to be percived as the most important character in the sequence and consiquently we refocused our attention on the man as apposed to the little girl. This enabled us to explore his OCD condition.
