Firing Squad
Independent Short Film
INTERROGATION ROOM.
The FBI Office conference room has been turned into an interrogation room for an uncomfortable conversation after Margret was caught lying about their promiscuous search history on the anual clearance questionaire. The new DOGE kid in town thinks Margret is an internal spy and Nick needs a confession, or his department will be cut for inefficiency.
TRICIA’S OFFICE.
Tricia is a high ranking member of the FBI and Director of Internal Intelligence. To make the set feel more established and official, we used dark wood and heavy furniture. We added faux wood paneling behind the executive desk to give a sense of importance and added degrees and seals on the wall for credibility. I directed the set dressers to keep the surfaces clean of any unnecessary papers, since all important documents would be sealed and kept in the filing cabinets on the walls.
WAITING ROOM.
The waiting room to get to Tricia’s office is home to her secratary, Margret, a few chairs, and a plate of homemade cookies. This dull and unassuming office couldn’t possibily belong to the secret double agent who has infiltrated the company... right?
CANADIAN EMBASSY.
The focus for this room was on modern, hard edge, and sleek furniture instead of the heavy dark wood of the American offices. Glass lamps, white surfaces, and silver highlights with cold white walls.
