Now that I have the characters and the props, I need a place to put everything. I was originally going to use part of a Lego set that I've had.
That's what it would have looked like. I decided to change the set for a few reasons. The first being that there were too many windows. There also weren't enough walls.
Initially, I looked up Lego police station sets that I could buy and build. That didn't work out because not only are Lego sets ridiculously expensive, there also wasn't anything that fit with what I needed.
So, I built a new set from scratch.

This was the first mock-up that I made. I didn't like the purple colors, so I painted them blue.
I also added a window and taped black construction paper in at the back to serve as a one way mirror/window that are usually in interrogation rooms. (I also decided to switch the hat to hair because it'll be easier to deal with. In my first few tests at filming, the hat just kept getting in the way.)
I decided to add in another wall because the set seemed incomplete without it and it'll help to get more shots.
I added in an extra figure in the background. A friend pointed out how there is usually a deputy or partner in the room during interrogations. Seeing as how this is now being done with Lego figures and I won't need any other people to be physically present, I decided I should take her advice and add in another officer.
This is about what I was going for, and I think I accomplished that.
