My plan wasn't to keep taking turns in between the both rooms in the interrogation room. I was going to shoot one room entirely, and then the other room entirely. I wasn't going to keep taking turns between rooms during shooting.
So it still is two set ups, from what I had in mind. What I meant was, that it's difficult finding two rooms that are together, so I would have to travel to another location, which means that that traveling will take more shoot time, and would likely have to rescheduled for a different day. I mean the traveling to the second room would take a chunk of shoot time out of the budget.
What if I wrote it so the detectives are discussing the case outside of the police station? Like instead of showing the interrogation, the cop can talk about with his wife when he comes home? The person being interrogated is the main character, so she looses some face time though, as will others, if scenes are told through third person perspective.
I wrote a chase scene in the same script, so that instead of seeing it, you just hear the whole thing happen through the police radios, and a third person main character is listening to the whole chase through a radio scanner. The downside being, that the characters in the chase are more main, and they loose face time. Plays are written like this though, cause they can't afford changing sets, so is is acceptable for a movie to do it for audiences?
