POSSIBLE CHANGE IN SETTING
As we have done further research on our location, we have come across a few questions we have yet to find a way to answer.
The vision we had of the white room was solid walls, ground, and ceiling. To find an actual set like this is rare, none of us have a bedroom or a room in our homes that fit this description. If we were to use one of our homes that happened to have white walls, it still would not fit our vibe, since we want the room to feel obsolete and any splash of color or texture would ruin that. Our friend Kimberly has a house that has fairly plain walls, but it is too open, ruining the excluded, isolated, claustrophobic environment we are shooting for. Kai had recommended that we purchase those backgrounds that photographers use and make a background in that way.
As simple as a solution this may be, it won’t look realistic to be a room and will look very artificial, which is not what we are going for. We want to make the room feel almost as eerie as the never-ending hallways that people have said to see in their dreams that feel oddly familiar to all people.
We want our characters to feel like they are in an inescapable location, with no exit in sight. To combat this, we have come to terms with switching up our location to somewhere else that could still give this mysterious look. We have worked in these secluded woods by the side of the highway for some of our past films about a kidnapping. For that film, we also wanted there to be a place that was entirely isolated, since the kidnapping that would soon be murdered was more suspenseful and scary. We have considered this to be an alternate location because it is very secluded and there is a giant patch of grass that is surrounded by trees that we could symbolize as “walls.” This location is also very close to where we live, so filming would be very convenient for us.
