Location

Blog Post SEVEN





The stairway throughout our sequence is one location that we switch too throughout, since we have based our location fully within a 'work place' set, we thought the use of a stairway was vital, especially if the Protagonist is running away, the use of close ups, mid shots and long shots on a stairway will attract the audience a lot more. Again, as the flight of stairs has many levels, we thought that we can film from higher angles in order to have connotations of 'The Black Shaddow' having higher status. We thought that within the lighting of this specific sequence, the red walls within it symbolises death and evil which is the type of theme we are aiming our Prelim off.

Also, another location that we have chosen is a variety of different hall ways, this is so that we can use high and low angles, as well as using close ups to show the pace that the Protagonist is running at. The hall way adds to the gist of the Thriller Prelim as it is plain. Through the use of mise-en-scene (lighting espeically), we are going to try and make the location a lot more 'scary' as it is. Also, as we have been doing our research on certian thriller scenes (click here for an extra research blogpost), there are a variety of sequences that has the victim running through hallways, therefore this is the main idea that we are basing our Prelim off of. 






Risk Assessment- redone!
In order to prevent anybody getting hurt throughout the prelim, a risk assessment is vital. Here is our YouTube link to one we did to fit our location below:

  1. Amusing risk assessment. However, it is a serious consideration and when you are doing your external filming for the main task, it is vital that you do consider the risks seriously. Ok.
