We liked the way this clip from Out of the Past has
been filmed, this is the genre of film we are interested and
it definitely has the style we want to use in our thriller.
Black and white 50's film. The man sat writing at his desk, the
'femme fatale' enters the room, he gets up and approaches her
(cigarette in mouth). Lots of shot reverse shot between the two
characters. We would however film this using a much darker light and some eerie
non-diegetic music would also be played - (Or even non-diegetic moves to
diegetic as we see vinyl turned off and music stops). A weapon would
be involved and also another character- the secretary on typewriter.
We've used this as an early influence on the aesthetic of our film.
