Filming Script: Kidnapped Victim Reshoot & Poster Photo-shoot

Once construction and editing began to unfold for our trailer, we held a focus group with volunteers from our target market. During this session, it was concluded that the scene in which the victim is dragged back into the darkness when the killer captures her would need to be re-shot as the hands used in the scene were not "harsh" enough to reflect a dominant and vicious killer. For this reason, we arranged to meet with our male actor once again to re-shoot the scene.

Day 4: Dark Room Re-Shoot and Poster Photo-shoot

Location:

Invicta Grammar School, Huntsman Lane, Maidstone, ME14 5DS

Date:

Thursday 28th January

Meeting Point:

Kelsey, Bethany and Hazel will be attending school on the Thursday, along with a substitute male actor (Samuel Bartholomew), whereby all have been notified to meet at the School's dark room at lunchtime (1:30 pm). Permission for the use of the photography room will be pre-arranged with the photography teacher by Bethany. 

Props:

Bethany: Bethany will bring the memory cards ready for filming along with a fake camera to be used in the poster photo-shoot. A slot in which to use the darkroom will also be organised prior to the shoot by Bethany. 

Kelsey: I will bring the camera to be used for the footage, a change of clothes and a mobile phone to use as a torch.

Hazel: Hazel has been instructed to bring a tripod.

Extras:

A slot to use the photography dark room will be pre-arranged by Bethany before filming commences. Also, the substitute actor (Samuel) will be shown the storyboard and existing footage prior to the meeting to allow for more efficient time usage as he will already be aware of what needs to take place.

What will be shot?

A re-shoot of the clip from the trailer whereby the victim is seen standing in a dark hallway hiding from the killer , in which he then pulls her back into the darkness out of sight from the audience. We will also take the images to be used for the film promotional poster, which consists of a close-up of the killer's face behind a camera. 

Total Time:

The filming of these clips should take no longer than the lunch hour provided, ideally around 40 minutes.

   

Finish time = 2:10
