Section 7: Location




Location: Sam's house, Appleton Thorn, Warrington
We have chosen this location as it is the closest house to college and fits the atmosphere and location that we wish to achieve while filming (suburban area - not busy). It is also easy to get to by bus.
Contact details: -
Health and safety: The candle that we are planning to have in our shot could be a minor fire hazard. Other precautions should be just looking after equpiment and common sense to ensure we don't have any unnecessary hazards

Section 9: Production Schedule

Directors: Sam and MikeCast: Rosie JohnsonCrew: Sam, Mike and RosieLocation: Sam's House - Appleton ThornDuration: 1 dayHealth and safety issues: Minor fire threat with the candle (should not be left unsupervised). We will also have to look after the equipment properly and use common sense to avoid making any other possible health and safety problems

Section 11: Audience Feedback

This is the feedback we received:- ''The match on action shot with the candle from the outside to the inside of the house was great.''- ''When the man's walking up the stairs to the girl's room, and the camera keeps flicking back from the room to him walking creates intensity, like something is about to happen .. by flicking from one shot to the other quickly.'' ''Also, good sound bridge''- ''On screen graphics and credits were good - they did not distract from the film, and also fitted in with the genre.''- ''Good performance''- ''When the girl is flicking through the newspaper, you know that she is looking for something''. One person also said it makes them ''ask questions'' which relates to Bonitzer's theory of partial vision: they do not know why she is cutting up the newspaper, but know it is a sinister / psychotic act, making them ask why, but not telling them the answer directly.- ''The way the music changes as the action in the movie changes too is good because it fits in with the film''.These are evidently the elements of our film which made the audience appeal to our film. Overall, it was a successful viewing in my opinion.
