9 Key Frames 2 Kilos

These are the nine key frames I have chosen for my creative artifact. I wasable to collect these photographs by making my actors act through the scenesmultiple times whist I took pictures of the actions taking place. I then selectedthe pictures I thought were the best at depicting the chronological sequence ofmy film 2 Kilos and represented the clear narrative of my script.

Key Frame: 1

In this high angle long shot you can see the protagonist, Ryan, lyingunconscious on the floor at the entrance of an alleyway, after just having beenbeaten up and had his trainers stolen. At this point Ryans lip is bleeding andhe is twitching his foot as he slowly regaining consciousness. In this scenetheir will be non diegetic background sounds of a slowly beating heart torepresent how the protagonists body is reacting to the situation as he beginsto slowly regain consciousness and to create a slight sense of anxiety to theaudience. Here the protagonist character is represented as weak andvulnerable, as he is alone with no trainers on and looking as if he has justbeen cast away and thrown on the ground. My use of mise en scene alsorepresents my protagonist as a teen who is mix in with gang culture, this isbecause of my costume choice of a hoodie and tracksuit bottoms and throughthe actor choice which helps convey everyday stereotypes to my audience. Atthis point in the film my protagonist Ryan would feel nothing he would still bein a daze after being knocked unconscious. In this shot I have used naturallight as I thought the lighting was sufficient.
