The document discusses lighting techniques used in films. It explains that there are two main types of lighting: high key and low key. High key lighting has little dramatic effect and is used in upbeat scenes, while low key lighting comprises both bright and dark areas and is used in more tense scenes to create drama or negative emotions. The document provides the example of the film Raincoat (2004), which effectively uses both high key and low key lighting to manipulate the viewer's attitudes and portray different emotions. It also describes how the author of the document similarly used both lighting techniques in their own short film to positively portray outdoor scenes but create a sense of anger and sorrow in indoor scenes through low key lighting.
This document provides character sketches for a film. It describes 5 main characters:
1. Raj as a child, who resents his mother for having one eye and considers her embarrassing.

3. Raj's mother, who loves her son unconditionally and donated her eye to him as a child.
4. Raj's wife, who argues frequently with her husband but takes good care of their daughter.
5. Their daughter Maliha, who gets upset by her parents' fights and spends time with both parents.
Raj hated his mother because she had only one eye, which made him ashamed of her. As an adult with a family of his own, Raj was still disrespectful towards his mother when she visited. After having a nightmare where his mother cries out to him, Raj decides to apologize. However, he discovers that his mother has passed away. A note reveals that she donated her eye to Raj as a child to replace the one he lost in an accident, showing her deep love for him, though he failed to appreciate her. Raj is overcome with grief and regret for his past mistreatment of his mother.

Bollywood music involves prerecorded songs that actors lip sync to. The genre and popularity of Indian films continues to expand greatly in the 21st century across India and internationally.
The filmmaker used various editing techniques including dip to white and dip to black video transitions between most frames to make the video more coherent. Fast, low-pitched background music was used when Charlie was alone to build audience interest, and fast-paced music during the scene where Charlie realizes he needs to run from the witch was intended to convey what the character was feeling. Voice-over was dubbed for Charlie's recitation of a magic spell. Basic tools like razor cuts were also used to edit clips, and audio mixer controlled the background music and voice-over levels.
The shooting schedule outlines 3 days of filming with scenes being shot on the 24th, 25th, and 26th of February 2015. On the 24th, Scene 1 would be filmed from 12:00 PM to 2:30 PM.
