A thorough case study of your planning. Some very minor revisions will strengthen.
1) Re the shots of Mason digging, this positions the audience within the character's territory. But as the shots are not point of view the audience is "watching Mason" like voyeurs. but remember "positioning the audience with the character".
2) Re locations, what is interest is the contrast between the forest which reflects Mason's untamed emotions, whilst the city shots indicate a contemporary world the audience will recognise. Either way you USE generic conventions but you don't challenge them. What you could say is that the setting in the open space has aspects of the horror genre where bodies but......are they dead???
