Car Crash Scene

As part of our media product we wanted to create a realistic looking car crash scene. Leading up to the moment of impact we intend to use a mix of sounds, fast paced cuts and flashes to create the most realistic crash as possible.

Once the car has ‘hit the tree’ we will need to recreate a real car scene, issues we may occur when doing this include capturing the look of:

• Air bags
• Smashed Windows
• Debris
• Smoke

• Spilt oil

How will we create this scene:

• We intend to use sugar glass rather than using real glass to scatter beside the car.
• We will use smoke bombs which we have already purchased to recreate the steam that would be given off in real life.
• We are currently in the process of looking for stickers that are used by other minor production companies that can be placed on the window to create a ‘cracked’ look.
• We are currently carrying our research and experiments to try and recreate a fake air bag.
• Spilt oil will be difficult to recreate and we feel that is an unnecessary extra, so therefor will not be recreating this.  
• For debris we will use plastic purchased from scrapyards e.c.t.
