More Prefilming...

So what's new in the world of "Shattered"?,..unfortunately...not much.

Here's a couple of recent updates: the featured character of the interviewer has been changed to Tyler Levinson, due to scheduling conflicts.  Shanna Iglesias, who was recently accepted into the BFA acting program at NYU, will continue to play the main role of Abigail.  We are all set to go apart from two major obstacles hindering De-Ranged Pictures' ability to film...location and scheduling.


Currently, we are able to either film in one of the legitimate interrogation rooms at the Weston PD or craft our own in one of the NSU medical school's unused offices.  The main challenge we will have is creating a creepy tonality through low key lighting.  In order to really make this effect work, we will most likely change the brightness during the editing process in addition to using different shots and angles focusing on shadows and darkness.



Some other things we hope to stay true to?  We will create foly sounds in order to dramatize Abigail's paranoid ticks.  For example, since the sound of scratching skin is very faint, we plan on using nails on sandpaper to create the right unsettling sound.  But these are just minor details.  What is really important at the moment is that we film efficiently and effectively, so we have time to make the proper edits.  Especially in psychological thrillers, editing techniques are crucial in creating the tonality we set out to make.  Wish us luck!!!!
