Story Board





Production Plan

Production Team; Molly Vandervell, Matt Lakey & Gemma Brammer

Cast

  • Gemma - Ella 
  • Molly - Chloe
  • Joe - Sam
  • Ollie - Joe

The characters in our trailer are each aged between 17-18, this is so that they are the average age of our target audience, making the film more relatable and appealing to our audience. The four main characters consist of two girls and two boys this is so too appeal to both gender's and not to alienate one or the other. Also by including two females and two males it does not typify our film for wither gender.

Locations;


Risk Assessment;

Corridor;
  • Risks - Bumping into other students and causing other students to trip on tripod.
  • Precautions - Make sure we film during lesson time so the corridor is less busy and guard the tripod to ensure no one is able to trip.
House;
  • Risks - Injuring self with knife prop, tripping up the stairs, slipping whilst running
  • Precautions - Do not mess around with props and ensure actors are clear on their directions so little time needs to be spent using the knife. Take extra care when running and ensure actors are confident.
