Shot influences

After considering using a voice over we have now been influenced by the following videos;

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

In order to reflect the flashbacks that is featured in our trailer, we have been inspired by this particular scene, where the protagonist appears disillusioned and the flashbacks are contrasting with the rest of the scene by different lighting and muffled sounds. 

Kanye West - All Falls Down

In this video we were particularly interested in how most of the video is filmed in the perspective of the protagonist. We felt that the particular shots shown below could be relevant to our trailer when the two male characters shake hands as we don't want the audience to see the character's faces and for the deal to kill Layla will look mysterious. The last screen shot below adds mystery as only the outline of the character will be shown, however we don't know if we will be able to do this as we think that in the video there may be reflective/tinted windows used which couldn't be used in our trailer.
