why we shot in the place that we did

The reason why we shot in the places that the images show is due to the fact that the rust effect provided a harsh effect and surroundings to provide that forgotten look which is vital for a post apocalyptic film as it provides the basis of the narrative to the film and how the world has been left in turmoil and abandoned as nearly everyone has gone.

Also with the weather that we had on the day of filming which was around December 18th the sun was out and low which created the high contrast with the soft blemishing shades of green and blues when the hills create a shadow in the canyons and the dense forest to the sun almost glistening off of the browns and orangs of the mud and also the rust on the cars as the images show the contrast almost showing nature in two different worlds which is what I aimed for.

Along with this the change in heights proved for perfect high and low angled camera shots and the constant power switches between the stalker and the two female leads and also the animalistic and crude hunting style that come with predator hunting prey. Also the actual scenery was contrasting in the fact that you have pylons that are huge and metal which are a modern day advancement however the forest and natural products made by the earth contrasts with that and almost show that man has killed and eroded the earth and caused the apocalypse.
