Planning for next shoot

Need aerial drone shots of the car, i want to have the music fade from silence as the drone gets closer to the car, and for the drone to stop as it gets as close as it can to the back of the car. Because i cannot have myself in the shot, i will not be close enough to the drone in order to see how close it gets to the back of the car. To solve this i am going too start the drone off close to the car, and get the actor to reverse the car and then play it backwards so it looks like the drone is getting closer to the car as the car is driving forward.
As the drone gets closer to the car, the music will start to sound like it would if it were playing inside the car and the audience were listening from outside. Once the drone gets as close to the car as it can, i will cut to a shot inside the car, where the music will be playing as part of the soundtrack, full volume.

I will also get a shot of the drone following the car into the courtyard where the main character first discovers the tent. The tracking shot will be done relatively close so it looks like a crane or steadicam was used rather than a drone.
I also need a shot to explain why the main character is zipping himself inside the tent, to solve this i am going to add a character who comes out the back door of the house shouting the main characters name, he zips up the tent and the other character comes to look for him, but he is no longer in the tent.

Cinematic influences

Cinematic influences I also had multiple cinematic influences which inspired me to use certain visual techniques to help me to create deeper meaning within my film. The Gunfighter The cinematographer uses a shallow depth of field to highlight the isolation of the character and to show how he is alone/ unwelcome in the environment. I would like to implement this technique into my own short film to highlight similar meaning. As the main character does not know where he is, using a shallow depth of field would highlight the isolation. A shallow depth of field makes the subject stand out against the background, which can be used to highlight the importance of a character or an object. The cinematographer uses tracking shots to  follow the main character, he includes foreground interest in his shot to show the busyness of the scene and to highlight what kind of environment he is in. This would be perfect to implement into my own work to show how the environment
Do geese see god- film synopsis Taylor is an ordinary adult on the way home from work. Upon reaching his house to park his car, he notices a tent obstructing his path. Filled with curiosity he gets in the tent and zips it up so that no one sees him. When he re-opens the tent to get out, a large gust of wind hits his face and he realises he is now in a different location. After getting out of the tent he discovers a note pinned to a tree. The note informs him that the tent is the only way back to where he started. After having multiple experiences of the tent changing location, Taylor finds his own car keys hanging off a branch in some woods. Confused and shocked, as he has never been there before, he walks forward to pick them up but hears footsteps behind him, it turns out the person behind him is actually himself, getting in the tent. Because Taylor has altered with the environment and done things in an irregular way, the paradox has been broken and this is why he sees himself. Tay
