There will be two locations in my thriller opening. The first to be introduced shall be the perpetrator's 'lair', a room of some sorts, which will be dark, mysterious and unclear to the audience as to it's whereabouts. On the other hand, the second location shall be an open park, deserted other than the main characters, to give the false illusion that they are same as they are in the open.
Location 1:
- An enclosed, unknown to audience area
- Dark and quiet
- Only main items, 'ceremony' and perpetrator hands visible - creates enigmas
(Really it's my bedroom with the lights off in the evening for maximum darkness and the desk is where all the 'magic' happens).
Location 2:
- Clear, open space, usually empty of people.
- Full of trees around one side of the park - gives the idea that the characters are being watched. Also, the trees block direct sunlight, creating shade so that the lighting is manageable.
- Local park, allowing the audience to be able to relate to the situation.
- Normal setting, making the viewer alert to what may happen next.
