Some screen shots from our two filming sessions...

The lighting here in this urban environment is unique with the green neon lights. The advertising boards covered in tattered posters and street lamps give the rough, urban environment we are aiming for.

This shot, with the speeding traffic, gives the impression that everything is passing him by, while he is left behind in his world of despair and regret.

These shots are to portray the unkempt room our main character lives in. The untidyness conveys his messed up state of mind, and how he has a lack of regard for anything as his mind is consumed with regret.

To emphasise the loneliness and emptiness he feels

We used car headlights to create interesting directional lighting. I like the effect as it creates more shadows and dynamic lighting than a normal light bulb.


The lighting here was really effective, and the lit up flats in the second shot add to the urban environment. The second shot also lends itself to be used in an overlay, as there is a lot of space on the left side of the shot. Overlaying something such as a medium shot of the girlfriend he has lost would be perfect as he looks like he is thinking in this shot.

Filming in front of a gate gave us a frame for shots of our actor in different positions, where he is thinking, regretting and remembering. The street lamp also creates dramatic shadows.
