Location setup

 One of the most important parts of making my movie feel real and immersive was selecting the right filming locations. Since my movie involves a crime storyline with a drug deal, a robbery, and a retaliation scene, I needed places that looked natural but also fit the intense mood of the film.

Picking the right locations was crucial in making my movie look authentic and visually engaging. Each location added to the films overall feel starting in a normal neighborhood, escalating to the dark alleyway, and ending in an open area where everything unfolds.


These choices helped shape the story’s tone, tension, and realism, proving that the right setting can make all the difference in filmmaking.

Now, with the dialogue locked in, the film feels even more real, and I can’t wait to see how audiences react to the way language...

We chose some decent sounds like the crowd going wild, aggressive grunting of the players playing, etc.
