What did your group explore using space in frame?

Within this short film we explored a sense of entrapment through the sense of space… rather lack thereof. We wanted to evoke a sense of sadness through the gritty, dark interiors of this space. I filmed keeping this prompt in mind, I wanted to exhibit the space are bleak, unchanging and constricting. In order to achieve this, I employed varying static close up shots of the space and Rebekah within it, in addition, I also positioned her within small portions of the frame in order to make her seem reserved and timid. 

What did you explore using colour in frame?

The selected environment itself lacks in colour, however, within post-production I decided that in order to enhance this pre-existing ‘aesthetic’ I lowered the levels of saturation and exposure. In doing this, I was able to create a more monochromatic appearance which was a nice accompaniment to what we were wanting to achieve conceptually through this piece. 

What ideas/questions did you decide to research?

We wanted to research concepts of how we as individuals interact with the spaces around us within our daily life (through repetitive behaviours) and how this affects our emotionality.
