Final Piece Plan

Location:
For our thriller project we decided to work and film in a factory. We decided this as it would give dark thriller effects and sounds. This also gave us a large area to work in which we could then control the lighting alot easier, this gave us the oppurtunity to make good shots at any time of the day. Also whilst filming in private property it made it a safer environment to use any weapons needed in our piece with out the worry from the public.

Planning:
Our planning was done as a team effort, with decisions on location and the general plot of our piece. The planning took longer than expected as we had to think of every little detail and think thoroughly about the murder scene. We started our planning quite early but didnt start filming till this year in January, it then took us a following three weeks to complete the filming including little bits that needed to be added.

Props:
-Weapon, this only included a hammer which could be clearly seen in the dark.
-Costume, this was just a standard working mans uniform and a big coat that covered the murderer from head to toe, so he could not be seen!
-Cellotape, This was used in one scene where a light switch got stuck down to stop it from flickering back on.

Target Audience:
The main target audience for our final piece will be certificate 15. The main reason for this is because there is some violent scenes shown by murders and some bad language. Another reason for this certificate rating is because the themes contained in it are more popular with people aged between 15+. Also this certificate is the main cinema viewing audience so there could be a lot more different age groups viewing our piece ranging from 15 onwards, as if it was a certificate of a lower rating the piece would get rated lower as there wouldnt be much point in violent scenes as they couldnt be shown.
