Building off my last few blog posts, in order for Jonathan and I to incorporate all the ideas that we want in our opening it was necessary to have every location that we want to shoot our planned ahead of time. In the opening itself, I talked about a light post which will be used to create suspense and mystery. The light post will be used for the beginning shots of Homer next to it which not only begins our film opening but is also used as the constant zoom out shot. The picture below found on Google Maps shows exactly what it will look like. The only difference with our opening and this picture is that it is going to be at night time and the light post will be the only lighting in the area.
The next location that we talked about is a bar that will be used for the scene which introduces Peter and shows his relationship with Homer at this point in the story. We aren’t legally of age to be in any bar so we are going to create one in a garage. To do this we will use different lighting schemes, primarily focusing on low lighting, which will create the aesthetic that we are looking for. To go along with creating this bar setting we will be using a wooden table to create the countertop that will represent the bar itself.
We aren't entirely sure how both of these locations are going to work out so this week we are going to begin shooting after school. If it turns out that we need to tweak anything or find a new location that will be the next step for us. If things do work out we will prioritize getting done the majority of the shooting this week and the following and then begin the shift towards editing.
