Synopsis Planning - Fallout


Fallout

Fallout is our film we have based it loosely around a nuclear disaster from which no one has survived because of this our film will contain lots of shots about nature and how human life has been destroyed with no hope of survival. The film has a enigma code which constantly wants you to question what is happening and what will happen because it is all filmed from the point of view from the lone survivor meaning we see everything in the way he does to make you feel scared of what will happen. The way in which it has been filmed enables us to use a small amount of actors but still create a powerful meaning.

The Fallout will be filmed in a number of locations like the school, The city centre and Lee's house we are going to use these locations because we feel that we are going to be able to create the right felling of destruction and emptiness, these themes will be expressed through the way in which we film the shot hopefully in such a way that life seems like a thing of the past and all people will be worrying is about there own life and how they are going to survive. To help create this feeling we will be using some 'before; and 'after' shots using the normal city with people walking around doing there daily tasks and after the explosion we will have a desolate location with no apparent life because of the mass of fallout which has been spread worldwide.

We will not need many props however in our location we are hoping to use the old style metal bins covered in rust which we may be able to kick over to show the destruction which the whole world will feel after the nuclear explosion, by using a few amount of props we are able to show how normal life is destroyed and nothing is left if we were to use props then we wouldn't be able to show this feeling of desolation because the shots would feel too 'normal' which would take away the feeling of danger and emptiness.
