1/25/23 Vlog #9 Location choices
Locations when it comes to movies are very important, it sets the whole mood and tone of the scene. Not only does it set the mood and tone but the setting can symbolize what's going on and why. For example, just like in this fighting scene in Rocky, it is seen that he is in a boxing ring fighting his opponent while the whole crowd cheers. This can show an example of how location and setting can affect a film. We decided for the introduction of our film we'd want to start in a car and drive the car and as the car arrives at its destination our characters will get out. The destination they are going to is a church because the mafia boss "main character" is religious and he goes and sits down with the priest. The next setting that will take place in the confessional where the boss is talking to the priest about how and why he did what he did, as they are talking it will transition into the next scene and brand new setting. It will be outside of the church where the goons will be similar to this picture where the two guards can be seen guarding a door so no one passes. Transitioning to the next part as the guards are guarding the entrance they see their target which takes us to the next setting, the sidewalk of the church where the goons beat their target up. We then go back to the inside of the church when the boss finishes his conversation with the priest, we go to the outside of the church and the goons can be seen in the background while the mob boss goes out of the church. The goons follow the boss and wait outside of the church right on the curb. While they wait the car comes back and they get picked up, the last and final location they are back in the car driving back.
