Location Recce: Lighting Shop

Location Recces:
Lighting Shop: The hitman is trying to find the target by go searching around places where the target goes to lives and gets his shopping. A lighting shop could be a place nearby which the target has gone in before. All the lights in shop can be used to our advantage as some can be on and some can be off. Certain colored lights for example red can be on the characters face to present some sort of emotion like anger. The shop has a trolley which can be used for steady camera work. The  black curtains will be removed but the way the shop is presented will make more realism to the audience believing this is an actual shop. 


The counter will be where the hitman and shop assistant will talk and lead to the shot fired. The counter is long and big meaning lots of space for camera shots including long shots. The shelf in the middle can also be used for the camera to go through a space between the shelf. All the lights on the ceiling could be used to our advantage for lighting. The left of the picture is the entrance to another room, a bright light can be used for when the hitman walk out of that room to make a powerful shadow. Making the audience feel like the character is filling the room, through his presence.

The room to the right of the shop has many lights facing the way out. The hitman will walk out of this part of the shop. this room can very bright in the scene but have the brightness turned down during editing.







The till for customers to pay has all the props to make the shop look like a shop, cash register, screens and bags.
