Outfits
This was the look that we were going for. We chose this because it fits our mise-en- scene and we feel that 1960's gangster films make great thrillers.

Location Of Filming

These
toilets were where we were going to film our media piece however we did not
realise that these would be closed. Leading to us having to move locations,
which was not really what we want as we had planned for that area. However we
had to change no matter what but what we did find with our back up location it
almost worked better than our original idea. As we felt that it built tension
so much better, as it gave us that thriller mysterious location feel.


The images above is where we will film the second part of our movie this is where you will see one of the characters bound to a chair and getting beaten up.
No Country for old Men Analysis
With this
first shot or set of shots, there is an extreme long shot used this is also
known as a establishing shot. This is to show how barren the land scape is and
that as the title says it’s no place for the weak. When filming this though it
has been cleverly done as it looks like a set of shots put together are like
photographs, which not only adds to the tension but makes the audience ask
questions about what’s going on why are they here? Who is here? Etc.
The next
shot I decided to evaluate was the one where we have the officer is on the
phone to his superior. The have used lighting very well in this shot with having
the good guy who’s face is lit up well and in the background we have the shifty
shady figure in the background. This is a great tension builder as the edit the
scene well. As the shady figure waits until the good guy has finished his call
so the superior does not assume there is anything wrong down at the office.
Also this could symbolise his last moment last call before he dies never to be
heard of again when that phone goes down.
The next
scene I shall evaluate is the one where we have the struggle on the floor this
is edited well as we do not see the true violence of the scene as you only get
the shot of the feet. However we do see that there are scrape marks on the on
the floor making the audience feel how will the murder get rid of it what will
he do. The sound that is used in this shot is high pitch violins which
emphasize the struggle and help build the tension. Again making the audience
ask questions will he escape? Who will win the fight? Also which us finding out
that the shift character has killed one person and about to kill another, it
emphasizes his power that he has.
