Location Scouting




 We chose to use a local wood. This being local makes it easy to get to and not mean we need fees to get there or travel long distances and it is easier to organise. We also felt a wood reflected the atmosphere are our thriller through the way it was isolated and a desolate place. It will help to increase the sense of insecurity as well and will create panic within the audience because they are far away from any type of safety. Woods are also very vast and would therefore strengthen the idea of the girl becoming lost because of this, panicked and in danger. Woods are also places of uncertainty and often given the impression of what is inside and that you never really know what you may find or come across aside from the stalker. There's also a lot of hazards within the woods that could injure the girl or get her caught up and increase the chances of getting caught.

 
 Garage
The start of our thriller will involve a dark room because low key lighting is a key convention of thrillers. We decided a garage would be the best place as it is dark and typically has various objects such as tools which connote danger and the idea of it being a man’s area/space and this is where our antagonist will be introduced. It twists the idea of an ordinary, realistic space being somewhere that could hold and create terror. We also will have access to a lot of props within the garage and can create a sense of danger or worry by showing a lot of sharp and deadly objects. A garage would also be easily accessible and easy to organise.
