Carpenter is famous for keeping his characters in the dark for the majority of a scene.

Wolfcrow also emphasizes the economic\u00a0savings\u00a0of stretching out scenes as long as possible: you don&#8217;t have to reset your crew, and you can shoot longer throughout the day. This will allow you to populate your feature with fewer scenes while still hitting that feature length.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"trapping-the-characters\">Trapping the Characters<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-101858 size-full\" title=\"How to Get the Most Out of Your Single-Location Shoot \u2014 Trap Characters\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dark.jpg\" alt=\"How to Get the Most Out of Your Single-Location Shoot \u2014 Trap Characters\" width=\"755\" height=\"345\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dark.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dark.jpg?resize=300,137 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dark.jpg?resize=277,127 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dark.jpg?resize=359,164 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dark.jpg?resize=543,248 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dark.jpg?resize=560,256 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dark.jpg?resize=150,69 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Image via Jack H Enterprises<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>A\u00a0consistent element of Carpenter&#8217;s work is\u00a0the relatable character trapped in one location. Then, to top it off, he adds a deadline that the characters must beat. He also finds ways to work in a description at the beginning of the film that details the geographic layout of the building, house, or compound, letting the audience know where certain things are (that most certainly pop up later in the film).\u00a0The villains are almost always human (or taking the form of a human), so\u00a0he doesn&#8217;t need heavy prosthetics or VFX. On top of that,\u00a0Carpenter scores his own movies. Obviously we can&#8217;t all be as talented as Carpenter, but we do have access to the same frugal approach to gear and techniques that he uses to make his films seem bigger than they actually are.<\/p>\n<p>Also, make sure to include one camera trick or gag that will\u00a0catch the audience off guard. Creating a memorable, mind-bending scene (even if\u00a0it devours half your budget) means\u00a0your project can stick in the audience&#8217;s mind for years to come.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Looking for more filmmaking tips and tricks?
