Half an hour ago, a man was shot at point blank range.
The murderer fled as a detective got a call.
Twenty-eight minutes later, the detective was on his way to intercept the suspected murderer...

White Light 'Time-Jump' Effect from Lost
Vezi mai multe din Emisiuni TV pe 220.ro
(From 0:27 - 0:48)
The bright white light effect is used in the TV series 'Lost' to signal a change or jump in time, within the narrative. In our film, it will be used to signal the change or jump from 'augmeted past' to 'normality', and vice versa.
Also to differ between the two different scenes (interrogation and murder), the murder scenes, that are set in the 'augmented past', will be coloured in dark red, as an alternative to black and white, which is the conventional style for 'past' scenes.

Filming - 11th Feb
Today we will be filming the interior (interrogation room) and exterior (crime scene) scenes. The interior scenes are being shot first, to help aid with the transitions between interior and exterior.
UPDATE - The interior scenes were ultimately filmed outside, at a different location. This was done due to the fact that we couldn't use a room to film in. A quick change of the script, and re-planning of storyboards was needed. Instead of Detective walking into the interrogation room, Suspect is running from the crime scene, while the Detective walks into shot from left, to stop Suspect. Detective goes to talk to him, and the scene continues in the same way as it does in the script.

Crime scene photos
For our film we have needed to go and take some photos of the "Crime scene"
We need these photos for use as evidence in our film.
All of the photos play a big role as they are used just before or during the changes of the background so not only are they used as evidence but also it signals the transitions between scenes.
The one below is the first photo that will be shown in the film as photo evidence of the crime scene.
The photo below is the next photo that will be used in our film that will be used as evidence.
The image below is the third picture that will be used in our film as photo evidence.

Influnces
Hustle - (at 47 seconds)
We intend to use this effect to show that the scene has moved from the interrogation room to the murder scene.
UPDATED - We decided that this effect wouldn't fit with the 'serious' tone of the rest of the film. So we will use the 'white flash' effect, shwon above.

Cinematography and Director
I am in charge of the cinematography and directing.
The cinematography will be heavily modeled on tradition interrogation scenes in police drama's, such The Bill, Waking the Dead and Ashes to Ashes.
This scene (from 3:51 - 4:53) from tv series Asylum, is exactly how the shots will be staged, with the 180 degree rule being used to have both characters framed in the centre of the shots.
The chairs used with the table in the scene will be metal, so they have a grating sound when they are dragged across the floor. This will be done in order to make the interrogation scene as normal as possible, in contrast to the 'bizarre' murder scenes.
