This is Todd's cubicle. The diamond angle keeps his character contained and orderly, like his OCD personality, but because it is a unique angle, it preserves visual interest. We will probably also use this set-up in our promotional poster.
The breakroom is sleek and compact, with interesting piping in the upper corner and a microwave included. The room itself is not small, however. This will help camera set-up be much easier. There is not a door nearby through which Emma can enter in frame, but we may re-storyboard that section to accommodate.
Todd's street connotes a down-town residence. The dramatic shadows were a problem because they create a more three-dimensional feel than we intend for his cut-and-dry character, but if we shoot in the early morning, the problem should diminish enough to be manageable in post-production.
The stairs to his apartment are perfect. They can split the frame and provide interesting angles yet still look flattened and arranged. The static shot of his descending should also be a funny visual comment on 'the perfect man' that he is, haha.
Our office hallway will be wide enough for us to do the tracking shot of his feet. This will be cross-faded from a similar tracking shot down the street. This particular hallway has "office colors"--bland but heavily patterned wall and carpet.
Overall, we have tried to keep a dull, muted color scheme without making Todd's world look particularly depressing. How did we do?
