parts of my trailer that is similar to my style model shutter island

The use of a patient within my film is apparent, such as within shutter island.

My patient is more in a younger and postmodern context, as you can see from the age of my actor and the patient clothes in which he is wearing. There are no handcuffs such as the style models patient in Shutter Island.

This is the island/ isolation apparent in shutter island, and I have recreated this isolation into a more eery atmospher. As I have used a graveyard for my setting.

This is my actor in the setting.

Shutter island has also used props to display the discorded patient, and put them in context to the films genre and their surrounding prison.

I have produced a similar prop for my film, however my image is in context to a less violent patient with a mind disorder.

Here you can see the patient notes I have created.

Shutter island also uses questioning as  key motif for the film, i have done this is a similar fashion. Although I have a female character without a face to reference from. It is also used to help describe the main content within the film, rather than help establish the persona of the distorted investigator in shutter island. 

Again with the motif of notes in Shutter Island, my film also uses them to help establish a possible narrative, or possible subtext.

Main image

This is the main image I have taken of my character in context to the films location.

I have made the actor sit in the particular position to make continuity become apparent throughout my main trailer and the magazine. I have also allowed a lot of blank space for text and heading for a magazine.
