style - composite nightime windows

This is the style of windows i want. this is the modle i want to start with. complete black background and lighted up windows like this. 

I think having diffrent shape windows works best to create isolated stories. I also dont like a iniform look like the last picture. making a shape out of the windows doesnt work either. 

now i had to create this style and adapt on it for my own film.


1. Firstly photos of the windows themselfs. these will be cut out and used as frames

these frames will be cut out and then coloured. 

I will use a post production filter to create the illusion of glass. 

2. secondly i will create the objects in the foreground of the windows like curtains. this i may have to do in green screen. 

3. i will need to then create in interiors of the rooms. I will film many different types of rooms and use mise en scene to create a atmosphere. 

this is were set design will be most important and setting the camera to show the illusion of looking through a window. i am still thinking whether to use live action or a photo. 

once im set on the stories/ theme i will start desing the interiers. they will need fairly realistic so i do it to peoples rooms. 

4. i will have to create the shiloutes of the people or animals to tell the stories. I will either do this through green screen, routtascoping or animation. 

this will all depend on time scale. rotascoping or greenscreen would look the best but animation would be quicker.
