Actors, props, costume and location - Emma Parsons

The people in my group and I made a list of all the props, costumes and actors we would need for the filming of our production. This list has been uploaded. We then had to decide upon a suitable location where some of these props would be readily available. We decided to film at a member of the groups house so that many of our props were already there.

We chose the specific location, not only because of the props, but also because of the surroundings of the house; it is on a road with a number of similar that is dimly lit by street lights. We chose this setting because it is something many of our target audience can relate to, therefore making the story that much more frightening because it feels as though it could happen to them.

This is also why we chose the props and costumes that we did. All the characters are presented to be average teenagers, just like the target audience, and share common interests and hobbies. For example, teenage girls having an evening at home in they're pyjamas, playing games and watching television is something many will be able to relate to, it is a situation some of the audience may be in whilest watching the film. This again, is inteded to frighten the audience more because seemingly average people become targets of such a violent criminal.
