Feedback - Miss Spencer

You have made a good attempt at the Horror genre research Cara. At the moment it is a a level 2/3 border. You have touched on the history of the genre and thought about some of the conventional aspects. In order to improve I would like you tho think about:
  • A more detailed history (from the 1920's onwards)
  • much more detail about the conventions of the genre (including iconography)
  • More clips and images to illustrate your points.

9.0: Recce

PICTURES PLS.

Recce

For our old movie, we decided on using the cellar and the town center for our settings.

Pros;
- Needs no permission to use.
- Looks realistic so no setting needs to be created.
- Own property so we could use the space freely (cellar).

Cons; 
- The lighting becomes an issue as it can get dark with working outside. 
- Permission may be needed off any general public with accidentally getting faces in shot, names of places or licence plates.
- There will be background noise which will be hard to edit out.

For our new movie, we decided to film in a house.








Pros;
- Adequate lighting levels for a good definition of film.
- No unwanted background noise.
- Own property so we can use the space freely.

Cons; 
- May be difficult to make the house look creepy (horror movie) as it might look to homely.
- Windows may give off reflections.
- No open spaces so longer shots may be hard to achieve.

8.0: Casting

Casting

We have two actors in our new movie.

Antonia Georgiou - The Mother
Stevie Georgiou - The young boy/ghost

The Mother;
The mother is the main character. She should be seen as mature and older. She is the one who unravels the mysteries in the house.

The young boy/ghost;
This is a foil of themselves. The young boy sets the innocence of the role and the opposing character he plays is the evil force. 

Props; 

- Fake Blood 
- Knife
- Apple
- Clothes to hang up in wardrobe
