Location Research











Our location of our film is set in a semi-detached house in a suburban town in England. We chose to set our trailer here due to the warming features of a family home. However, due to the codes and conventions of genres such as horrors we know that at night a house can be come eerie and ominous and create tension, which is what we aim to do. The piano in the bottom right of the left photo is essential in our trailer as the diegetic sound may make the audience feel on edge. This juxtaposes with the happy family home which relates with what happens in the story as well. Filming in a home allows us to do a variety of shots such as over the shoulder shots, close ups of features in the house and medium shots of characters. However, during this process we have to take extra precautions to make sure there isn't anything in the background that may ruin our trailer as it is a normal family home.
