A technical term used for when the weather is used to represent a mood or a situation, and the weather is used to emphasises this. For example, a love story wouldn't leave the happy feeling when you watch a couple finally get together after waiting the whole film for this to happen if they had their big kiss in the thunder and lightening, usually the weather will be sunny and happy to reflect the character feelings and emotions.
Another example of this would be a horror movie; a horror movie wouldn't have the same effect and create the same tension if it was filmed on a Sunday, where the location is light and bright, and you can see the whole location.
An it is for this reason that we have chosen to film when it is dark and dull with poor weather, we have done this in attempt to create the an atmosphere and suspense and to create the 'unknown' as it is dark and our actors surroundings are therefore not visible, and we feel this created the suspense we wanted.
