Iconography

For this exercise we were told to think of a character related to a certain genre and shoot a scene only using one shot and it should be no more than 30 seconds long.

I would class our chosen genre as drama, this is because it is focusing on human emotion and contains emotional themes.

In our group we split ourselves up into different roles;
Me - Art Productions -props, costumes, locations and makeup
Glyn - Director - scripting, frame forge and storyboarding
Ash - Sound - recording live and non-live sound
Sid - Camera - equpiment

As part of my role i scouted out different locations that could be used in the graveyard and took pictures as shown below;


As the scene is about death we want the colours in the scene to be grey and dull to give conotations of death and after checking the weather forecast ive found that it will be 'prodimiantly cloudy' which will be perfect for the scene, but we will have to prepare ourselves for rain.


The scene has been influenced by an episode of scrubs. In the episode Dr Cox's friend has died but he still believes he is alive until he realises he is at his funeral, if you havent seen it id definatley reccomend watching it cause its an awesome episode
