Initial Credits

This is our first attempt at filming our title sequence for our horror movie; although we think that this looks very effective, it is too long for use in a two minute long opening, and so we need to refilm it, cutting down on the length of time. We chose this idea because it gives the impression of someone looking over the photos of the girls he is stalking, and presents the name of the cast in an original and unexpected way.

Final Cast List

Our original Cast List differs slightly from the final one as we did not recieve consent forms from all of the participants. For the filming on the 29th of January;

Louise Chick

Matthew Bonner

Keegan Featherstone

Matt and Keegan don't have alot to say, therefore we didn't need to make them a draft script to perform. However, Louise doesn't say anything but she screams alot. Also, Louise is doing the audio for our horror film, therefore we had to record her reading out our script of the sorts of things we want her to perform.

Original Shot List

This is the original version of the Shot List, however, some of the filming changed due to lighting and timing etc. the main story line remained the same, but may have a slight difference in order in the final edit. We also filmed some extra footage to make sure we had all the footage we need, and more incase of timing problems etc. This means that we have more to work with, and we also have a wider range of shots and more effective flashes.
However, we used this Shot List to help us in the main part of the filming.

Filming Diary 29th January

We began our filming on friday and we all felt it went well. We did however underestimate how many times we would have to repeat the same piece of filming and due to this we are to continue filming on tuesday. Although there is a small amount we have left to do. Firstly we filmed our actress Louise walkinng through a woodland area from various angles and shots. We also filmed a stalker (Keegan or Matthew) walking behind her for moments. This went well and we feel we got a wide variety of shots that we would be able to use when editing. Secondly we walked to to my home, where we filmed Louise being attacked. This went extremely well and we were all pleased with the end result. We filmed the same couple of sections from 3 different angles so we will be able to re-arrange and edit our film to what we feel looks best. After doing so we moved on to begin filming down Court Road but we found that because of the time of day we chose to film it had become too dark for a cameras to pick up on the actors. The time of day was also a complete contrast with our earlier filming and would not have continued good continuity. For these reasons we decided that we would continue filming another day so that it was lighter.Because we had unexpected time left over we went to my house and recorded Louise's audio of panicing for the opening of our film during the subtitles. This we feel went really well and are happy with the end result. On tuesday we have filming down Court Road to finish off aswell as hopefully filming in the garages nearby Church Avenue.

January 22nd

For the past week we've been finishing off the last of our filming schedules and shot lists, ready to start filming on Monday. We've been discussing the final aspects of our film, like how we're including titles and makeup for our victims. For the titles, we're considering the idea of having poloroids of our victims with their names scrawled below in black marker pen. The camera would be panning above with blood dropping down onto the photo as the camera pauses on each photograph. Whilst this is going on, we'd have the audio of the female character screaming.

Costume List

Our main female character will be dressed in smart/ casual clothing, as if making her journey home from work. eg. smart trousers, shirt, heels for example. we have chosen to do this to avoid the usual cliches of the innocent victim wearing white, or being a young girl in school uniform or casual attire.


Each of the antagonists will wear hooded garments to obscure their identity and create a feel of animosity, which will emphasise the idea that no particular hooded figure has any significance or importance over another. This can also show that they they work together, highlighting the link between them.

The five other female characters will only be glimpsed briefly, but will be in a variety of costumes, showing that no particular lifestyle or background is targeted and to highlight each different character, and to increase the understanding of the viewer, in that anyone could be targeted.

Although each costume is simple, each one holds great significance in helping the viewer understand what is happening, and which character is which.

Casting For The Stalkers

We cast Louise Chick as our female protagonist because she looked the part of a victim in a horror film. She is young and blonde and so conveys innocence, meaning that the audience will fear for her safety, and keep them interested in the film. This is her audition tape, where we asked her to read out our first draft script, which would be used for the voice over on the credits.

We have now cast our two minor parts of the stalkers. Although these characters are integral to the film, they have no dialogue in the opening two minutes and are only seen fleetingly. For this reason, we didn't need to hold a proper audition, more ask for volunteers and then check they were okay for the times when we are filming in January and were old enough. These are our stalkers;

Stalker #1 - Matthew Bonner
Stalker #2 - Keegan Featherstone

We recorded them briefly just saying who they are, and what part they were going to be playing.
