8. Title
The title of the film is: Exposed
The reason this title was picked was because it represents the concept of the
movie being a Russian mole who was betrayed by her home country. The title
will fade into existence on a black screen after the final gunshot happens. The
font of the title is a version of Iconian, and was chosen and influenced by
openings that we saw on www.artofthetitle.com . more information about art of
the title can be found on each of our group members blogs.
9. Sound
● Opening has slower music that will gradually get louder and more intense
as the film progresses so that by the end of the opening the music is very
fast, loud, and intense
● Scene 13: sound of a neck cracking (non-diegetic)
● Scene 14: hear thump of knife hitting someone and the sound of a gunshot
(non-diegetic)
10. Location
The location we decided to use is a local shopping mall mainly because of the
back hallways inside of the mall work very well with the what we wanted to do
with the film. Also the protagonist of the film is going to a location so the mall
is a good place to film because it allows for a lot variety in the shots we do get.
Also the mall is in a very convenient location for all of the people in the group.
Also the multiple entrances into the back hallways allow a variety of different
ways that we can approach the fight scene at the end of the sequence.
11. Photos of Location
The opening scenes of the
project are going to be filmed
outside the Galleria Mall in the
parking lot and parking garage.
The lot on the left is where the
opening shots are going to be
filmed.
The walkway on the right is how
the characters will be entering
the mall.
12. Photos of Location
On the left is one of
the main locations
inside where we will
be filming. We chose
it since it’s in a less
popular part of the
mall and is wide open.
The corridor on the
right is where the fight
sequence will be
filmed. The side halls
provide privacy and
help to create an
atmospheric mood.

14. Health and Safety
The locations that we are filming in have some things that may cause some
health and safety concerns. Two of the places that we are filming is a parking
lot and a parking garage so while filming we will have to be mindful of cars so
during filming we will have someone watching out for vehicles that might hit
the actress. We are also going to be filming inside of a mall so we will have to be
mindful of the escalator because people have been known to be sucked into a
different dimension through those, but in all seriousness we will have to be
mindful of other people walking in the mall or using the escalator. Also we will
be filming in a high area so we will have to be careful with the height that we
are filming at. As a last note we will be using a prop gun so we will need to let
the mall know that we are doing this so that we don’t get tazed by a mall cop.
15. Props and Costumes
These are the props we used: 2 non-functional Airsoft pistols which are going to
be used in the fight sequence, Car and keys will be used for just background
scenery, Briefcase and the papers inside are used in the beginning of the
sequence to hold the papers to show that the protagonist is a spy for Russia, the
binoculars are going to be used by the antagonists.
