The location for filming our opening
After considering the good and bad sides to our location idea's, we settled on the idea of a park. We chose this because we wanted to set our horror in a location where people would normally feel safe. Our research showed that people felt safest when surrounded by people, and as parks are often full of people (usually innocent children), we thought that we would turn the idea on it's head and film our horror opening here. We will also use the woods that are beside the park to combine the feeling of being 'safe' in the park, with the feeling of being isolated in the forest.
The park entrance...
A shot of the scout hut and the field that is beside the park...
A goal post, signifying the youth that we associate with parks...
The woods that are beside the park...
The park itself ...
I then took pictures of aspects of the park that I thought had a 'creepy' essence. I edited them so that they were darker, and added a blue tone to the photos, to make them look more scary.
The fact that the swings are very dirty makes this innocent park seem much more devious.
Close up shots like this will add a great deal of detail to our opening.
Perhaps we could take a short clip of this sign to hint at the horror that is to come...
