Research: Source Material

When coming up with our idea of a police interrogation, we needed some source materials from both Film and Animation to help us develop our story further. We discovered that the police interview was a very prolific section of film, and has found its way into some of the biggest movies, and games, of all time. Seeing as we was using the 'bad cop' routine, here are a few of the ones we found most relevant to our story.

This is an interrogation scene from the hit Playstation 3 title 'Heavy Rain'. We found this spot on with what we wanted to do. The cop in the video, loses his temper and hits out at the suspect. This sort of behaviour is exactly reminiscent of what we wanted to achieve, and being an animated scene added to its appeal even more.

This scene from the box office smash 'The Dark Knight' is another we thought which showed exactly the type of character we was trying to portray. A very expressive, slightly aggressive, type character was specifically the type of characteristics we were trying to convey with our characters.
