Scene Ideas:

Music:

Movement of the camera through architecture (walls, floors)

Motif of Food:

How someone eats is an indicator of their personality, background, habits etc. Eating food in a social setting is an intimate and vulnerable state to be in, I think it allows for some interesting character development to take place, as well as opportunities for cool looking shots of food. Affordances for this: getting the actor to eat many portions of the same thing/ eating something that has gone cold half an hour ago.

Cool stills:

I like the composition of this shot. The way characters sit demonstrates a lot about their personality.

Symmetry, visually pleasing.

Location:

Smaller, enclosed space; allowing for full exploration of the space and familiarity of it. The pictures chosen were from TV shows which due to its length has an advantage of making its viewers familiar with the set.

Scene:

After being kidnapped, the daughter of the president was brought by her abductors to meet with the mobster. This can take place either in the back room of a laundromat which serves as a front or in a basement, the majority of the scene takes place in this dimly lit environment. Motivations: the mobsters wanted to use her as a bargaining chip to gain more control over the surrounding area. The president’s daughter, although afraid, is trying to find ways to escape or even bring them to justice. What occurs next is a tense confrontation between the mobster boss, the daughter of the president as they battle it out through words. Meanwhile, she surveys her environment, looking for tools and routes for her escape. She uses her wits to turn the abductors against their boss and escapes.
