Body Language and Facial Expressions

Body language and facial expressions are the foundations of every film ever made. If the body language and facial expressions don't relate the scene and or story then it can completely destroy the momentum of the product which is why we are casting carefully for our film.

As directors we need to make sure that we can forge characters out of who we cast to act in our film. We believe that due to the film being an opening and it being a heist setup, we will not need to focus on creating identities for these characters as of yet.

Using shady and restrictive body language will generate an intense but still secretive atmosphere that will further generate audience response such as enigma. We plan to use low key lighting near the starting points of the product to hide our characters identities from the audience to have the guessing who is who and what the purpose of the scene is until it's unveiled at the end.
