The Corridor

Live-action photoreal, present day, unsettling grade. A long hotel corridor, patterned carpet, symmetrical doors, a flickering sconce. Night, eerie stillness. A person in a bathrobe stands frozen mid-corridor, looking down its length. A dolly-zoom (Vertigo effect): the corridor behind them stretches and elongates unnaturally as the camera dollies and counter-zooms. Cold green-tinged light, deep perspective, 40mm warp, dolly zoom. Shallow depth of field, grain, 24fps.
