Locations

House:
We will set our film in a house, as haunted houses are usually featured in horror films. Our film is similar to the films, 'The others,' and, 'The woman in black,' which are also set in houses. We will use shadows and figures in the background to show that the house is supposedly haunted which will help the audience assume what genre our film is. We will aim to film on a dark and dull day to create a scarier affect and show the genre of the film.

Forest:
Our film will open in a forest as Agnes' is being dragged by her parents towards a noose, to become hanged. We will use a lot of close ups and wide shots to create tension. Plus, we will aim to film on a dark day to make the forest look spooky and creepier; this will also add to the mood of the film.





Police interrogation room:
We will use a small room as our police interrogation room. The room will be in darkness but will use a single lamp for lighting, like they stereo typically do in crime/police movies. This will help develop the plot and create a verisimilitude affect.







Closet:
To show that Agnes' parents abused her and treated her bad, she will have a flashback that involves her being thrown in a cupboard, and it being locked. We will use similar ideas to the Harry Potter franchise. At the beginning of the first film, the protagonist spends a lot if time in a cupboard. There a lot of dark colours used which are juxtaposed by the bursts of light to show the character's face. We can interpret these cinematography and lighting ideas into our own film.


Bedroom:
Agnes will wake up from a dream in her bedroom. We want to make the bedroom look scary, as it will support stereotypes in common horror films. We also could include a scene of Agnes looking under her bed to build the tension, to make the atmosphere appear to be scarier and for the audience to expect something to jump out.



Bathroom:
Agnes will wake up and go to the bathroom to wash her face, but she will see someone behind her to make the audience jump. We will aim to film this in the dark to make it a lot more scarier. This will happen at the beginning of the film to initially scare the audience and so that they will be constantly expecting something to jump out at them.
