Location Shots - Street Corner

Location Shots - Street Corner

For the title sequence, we decided that we wanted a scene in which Kyle was sat on the floor, begging for change. We thought that showing Kyle at an extremely vulnerable point would show the lows that he has had to go through, how degrading it is being in his position and shows his lack of power.

The cream and beige colours in the location are also extremely natural. We wanted all the locations to tie together so we made sure the locations shown in the title sequence were all linked via colour. This again could further represent Kyle having the bare essentials, thus proving his vulnerable character.

We wanted to have Kyle look almost closed into a corner in this scene, which is why we used this location. The brick walls surround the corner and we feel would be appropriate in showing Kyle as isolated and vulnerable. 
Also, to have Kyle backed into a corner may represent his lack of power and could also represent that there is no turning back for him.
By using this in the title sequence would forebode his future death, by showing that this is the path that he has carved for himself after beating the Employer. He is now isolated and has no other escape, shown by the walls barricading him in. The only other escape is forwarding but that leads onto a road, which can be seen as a way out or also a dangerous place. This could represent that by trusting the Employer, Kyle is seeing him as a way out of his vulnerable state by receiving money from him, but in actual fact he is dangerous and trusting him is a bad decision.
