Creative Project Realisation : Emotive Symbols

This installation is all about symbols, I'd like to express the emotions and mood of each room without directly telling the audience and also outside of a narrative film structure. I'm going to break down each room scene and plan some of the imagery I want to use.

Fear Room:

- Yellow Photo filter to help express sense of fear, cowardice and paranoia.
- Distant but sharp sounds that make the character react anxiously
- He is biting his nails and pacing the room
- We will create shadows off-screen to give a chilling and looming figure over him
- He checks the drawers in the desk and feels unsafe
- He begins cowering in the corner
- There is a rope on the table, he begins to make a noose
- Image in the photo frame is an eyeball
- Puts the chair in the centre of the shot and stands on, as if he is gonna hang himself
- He puts on the noose and gulps, clearly distraught
- He opens his eyes again and looks around edgily.
- He hasn't the courage to kill himself so relinquishes from the noose and sits on the chair.
- He rests his head on his hands and looks sullen











Tranquility Room:

- Cyan Photo filter to help express a sense of calm and relaxation
- Man starts in meditative pose
- Slowly rises and lights and incense that is on the table
- Begins doing some martial art moves
