Planning for Filming

Prop List for our film:

· Mobile Phone (the text message Mia receives from Horatio)

· A tie (presumably a red bow tie for when Horatio strangles Noah)

· Apple Mac

· Improvised article on the screen

· Camera

· Pics of Mia

· Geeky glasses

· Flamboyant clothes

· Ankle swingers with white socks

· Black shoes

Location list for our film:

· Media Suite- for the Newsroom

· Possibly the corridor for Red House (1^st floor)

· Welham Road

We chose these locations because not only do they subtly reveal information about Horatio (e.g. that he goes to school, lives in town and is different) and they also fit in with the conventions of a psychological thriller because they are reminiscent of the daily lives of many teenagers and therefore, makes the plot of our film more psychologically scary. The newsroom shows that he takes part in extra curricular activities and is therefore, quite studious. Also as nobody else is going to be in the room with him whilst we are filming it shows that he is perhaps most studious than other people and reinforces that he is different.
