Planning- settings

 Intro

For the film we are planning to have a few settings that each In filmmaking, a setting is far more than just a background. It acts as an unseen character that actively shapes the story, the audience's emotions, and the characters' decisions. Filmmakers use different settings to solve technical problems, build atmosphere, and guide the narrative.

Planning

We are planning on three settings Lilly's house , the library and the car.

For  the first setting we are going to be in Lilly's house in the morning as soon as she wakes up, and as she navigates her house she is hunted by the shadowy figure. For the meaning of this setting I want it to mean that even though she is in her house, which can signify safety, she is still being chased by her illness meaning that it never stops.

For the second setting we have the bathroom which is where our main character is washing her face to get the day started. She is relaxed after a mediocre night a sleep , she puts water on her face to get herself up. She doesn't realize that something started lurking.

For the third setting we have the library where she meets with her therapist because the attacks are being more often. She talks to him in the library where it can seem peaceful and a place where people relax and study. However she is still getting tormented by this figure.

For the last setting we have the car where Lilly finally meets with her best friend to talk about the past few hours. She is going about it when she starts hearing something familiar and in her car while she is with her friend Lilly experience the big plot twist that changes everything. We chose the car because its a close space where people are close to each other, meaning that the problem is closer that Lilly thinks.

Overview
By already having settings we can already start telling a little more about the story of our film. It can be seen as just the back that doesn't matter, but for me it has more meaning than just that and that's what I want to convey in our film. I learned that setting have way more meaning when it comes to helping deliver the message. For us the message is that when u have a mental disease, your problem never stops even in your private time with yourself.
