In the first scene the main character wakes up and looks up at his wall with a pile of notes, posters and letters stuck to the wall. This gives the audience the impression that the character is obsessed about something. The montage seems excessive and over done, which was exactly what we were going for. I wanted to encode the message that it was not just an obsession or phase but rather it was a way of life for this character. Also one could notice he was sitting at his study desk when he fell asleep which shows that he's always working and implies his whole life is consumed by this major project that he has embarked on. The next scene was filmed in a park near Chelsea. It was filmed on a small pier/bridge. This location was perfect for the crime/flashback scene because it looked like a building site and had a dodgy look to it. The characters were dressed in long black coats and smart wear because they were detectives, and the long black coat is a conventional look for detectives.
In the scene after the flashback scene we used a mid-shot view. This showed us what the characters room looks like. We intentionally made it messy before filming to encode the massage the character hardly has time for himself.
