Location


     The title 'Nightfall' didn't appear overnight. The film takes place in a city environment. The city and culture the film is based upon is Miami, Florida, however location shooting can be done in many regions from Las Olas in downtown Fort. Lauderdale, to South Beach itself. Filming on location has been a struggle, mainly due to the fact that it will take a lot of work to match schedules with everyone who needs to come on the shoot. Also, shooting would best be done in one day as going to either one of these locations is a ways away. Planning and storyboarding the shots is a major key to being successful with this film opening. The title has many meanings behind it. First of all, the character Ben Fields is in a tough place in life. Nightfall resembles darkness and how things can come out of no where, such as when Ben's life drastically changed when his parents died at 15 y/o. Many events such as car crashes happen at night due to the cover of darkness. Also, the film very much so revolves around the night time, as Ben plans his schemes and achieves them only at night.
