Production: Analyzing day 2

 Hello blog! In today's blog, I will be analyzing our second day of filming. We already introduced Luna, so we felt like it was unnecessary to bring her up again. However, we are introducing our new character, Thomas! 

Scene 2

Luna's home was the location for our second scene. This is when the dialogue will start and the questionable elements will start to be included. However, we want this scenario to seem fairly "normal" before things start to change in Luna's life.

Location:

This scene will be set at Luna's home's entrance. We would like to represent Luna receiving the item she has been waiting for, but it is not what it looks like. She was clearly upset by the message she received as she entered the house. The scene will be brief and immediately followed by the next one.

Props:

Two important props will influence Luna's choices as the film goes on. The package she has been waiting for is one of the ones that will be briefly mentioned in the opening and initially show up in the second scene. The message attached to the package will be the second and the reason for a change in situations. These two will be the movie's initial moments of tension and terror. We hope that this surprises the audience and makes them consider the possibility that Luna's life isn't as "normal" as it first appears.

Scene 3:

Our goal in this sequence is to make the viewers feel as suspenseful as possible before leaving them on a cliffhanger. In addition to introducing a new character, Thomas, who will redirect and paint a different picture of the film for the audience, we are going to use a number of techniques to build suspense.

Location: 

Since Luna and Thomas will be speaking on the phone in this scene, the location is important. The issue is that, despite the fact that Thomas is shown inside a car and Luna is seen at her neighborhood bar, they are actually at the same location at the same time. The viewers will be able to figure out that Thomas's car is parked at the drink spot by considering context clues. Our goal is to make the audience anxious and then curious about what will happen next.

Costume:

Thomas, a fresh and important character, will be introduced in the third scene. We wanted him to appear like a typical teenage male that the audience could identify with, just like we did with Luna. The audience will quickly come to the conclusion that, regardless of how "ordinary" he appears, appearances shouldn't be all that people show.

Thomas appears to be just another popular, athletic teenager kid because he is wearing a baseball shirt and golf cap. We took this action so that he would be portrayed throughout the movie as the "popular" guy who never seemed to be who he truly was. These clothing selections are made statistically, even though this wouldn't be made public in the start. Until it becomes clear that something is wrong with him, we don't want him to appear suspicious. The purpose of these costume pieces is to show that not everyone is who they appear to be.
