Location Ideas

These dark dingy locations are the kind of atmosphere we are looking for in the setting of our short film.

The stark contrast from the black and white makes the visual ambiance seem darker and more sinister.

Short Film Concept

Short Film Synopsis

A woman is tied to a chair on a dark room, whilst a shadowy male figure approaches her and interrogates her about some missing documents. The woman refuses to disclose any information to the man. After several threats to kill the woman he gives up. The man then dispatches the woman and moves her and the chair to the other side of the room. The man proceeds to the door and opens it, casting a beam of light across the room, revealing people waiting to be interrogated.
