The Directorial Compass

Before the camera rolls, a director must answer four fundamental questions. RanGen structures your exploration around these core pillars of filmmaking.

01

Spatial

Where is everything?

Map out the physical geometry of your scene. Establish blocking, camera positions, and the spatial relationships between actors and their environment.

02

POV

Whose eyes are we looking through?

Determine the subjective vs. objective perspective. Decide which character's emotional truth drives the framing and lens choice.

03

Mood

How does the scene feel?

Define the atmosphere using lighting, color palette, and production design to evoke the desired psychological response.

04

Continuity

What comes before and after?

Ensure emotional and physical consistency across setups. Track eyelines, screen direction, and the momentum of the edit.

Build the World

Map the environment.

Bring your characters and locations into the same world. Set the look and feel early so the film stays consistent as you plan each scene.
