Using Modern Technology for Pre-Production- Celtx

For the scene which involves my protagonist enter his son's room, i have decided to one close-up shot placed at position 1. and a wide shot of the room at position 2. The latter would give a point of view shot (the father observes the empty room). The set will be lit up naturally by the sunlight through the window but to ensure there is a substantial amount, i will have another source of light pointing to the bed and across the room.

                                    
                                      Bathroom scene
                                 


The scene set in the bathroom will be very complex. I therefore made sure i knew where to place my cameras and lighting before i began filming. As the storyboard states, the protagonist will enter his bathroom and immediately see a glimpse of his wife at the sink. Camera position No.1 will show the wife at the sink as the father enters but then the next shot will be from camera position No.2 where another take without the wife will be shot. This gives the effects that the wife has disappeared and it was only the father's imagination playing tricks.
When the father himself is at the sink, he will be filmed from a similar position to camera position No.1(close-up) This is so we can clearly see his reaction for when he hears the distant scream. There will be lighting from behind the character from both windows and lighting from the ceiling.
