Inspirations

This is a shot which I find very intriguing as it catches the attention of the audience instantly. This is a shot from a successful thriller film named se7en. The darkness in the room is lit up by the sharp beam of light coming from the window as well as the bedside lamp which creates contrasting views of the room. There is also the word 'sloth' written in blood on the wall, tattered bed sheets and the window with no curtains allowing the light to enter the room. All these features add to the errie mood created and the assumption that the room is used by some sort of killer/murderer. emphasised by the blood. This shot is what I want to replicate in my thriller opening as it fits in well with our script and genre of a crime thriler.
