This is what we are trying to have our set look like, a creepy and mysterious feeling that will entice the audience to stay interested in the film opening.
When it comes to the setting of the scene, we want to make sure that it is as dark and gloomy as possible. A set that brings some to wonder and others to question about the deep plot they are to uncover. The reason for this is to bring out the deep emotions of the audience, have them terrified, concerned, and nervous all in one.
The dark lighting is what will create that sense of mystery and the high-key lighting on some specific images is what will bring the audience's attention to one specific item.
Developing the character is just as important, that's why costume design is extremely crucial when wanting to create a specific image on a character.
For the plot, we are currently thinking of, having an abused girl, watch herself grow through adulthood. For this reason, we would like her clothes to stay the same throughout her aging, in order to not confuse the audience and have them understand that they are the same person.
To get the image of abused women, we want to have a big white t-shirt, representing her innocence. As the years go by have the t-shirt get darker, with blood and dirt. By doing this it will create a symbolism throughout the film opening, introducing the rest of the plot and making it clear to the audience what the film is going to be about.
The older the girl gets, the more traumatic physical abuse situations she has been in, shown by the costume design along with the different makeup being placed in each different age stages.
