During our research we watched a film called, "Some Mother's Son" it is set in the same time frame as our film is, therefore it is beneficial to us to watch this movie. It follows the story of the hunger strikers of 1981 in the maze prison in Northern Ireland. The mise en scene in this film is extremely effective as it brings a realistic and believable view on Northern Ireland during the troubles of the 1970/80s.
The lighting and editing of this film gives it a look of grunge on it, representing the poverty and turmoil conflict has caused in Ireland. We hope to use the same effects in our film to recreate the look to portray the despair caused by the actions of the people in our film. The titles in this film are simplistic and subtle as they are just text on the screen without any attention being made to it. We plan to have very simple titles in our film, we hope them to not take away from what is actually happening in the movie, therefore they will hopefully just be in the bottom corner of some shots.
