Basic Questions & Answers About Our Project

Q) What classification is your film going to be and why?
A)  We chose our film to be a 15 certificate because of the level of violence and mild language. We do not feel that anyone under this age would be comfortable when watching our project.


Q) Who did you use for your actors?
A) Stacey, Sam Brown and Ed all act in scene 2, along with Sam Pudney who we had to use to be able to meet our specification. The only actor in scene 1 will be Ollie Sim (Harriets brother). We tried to use ourselves as much as possible but this was hard to work under current circumstances.


Q) What time of day did you film this and why?
A) Scene 1 will be filmed in the evening, in contrast to scene 2 filmed in the morning- this will give the impression that they are filmed in the same day, but at different times, linked with a transition that will be obvious that they are being taken 'back in time'.


Q) Why did you choose your location?
A) For scene 1, we used Harriets living room. This was chosen as it can easily be made to look like a detectives house, as well as it being very realistic. Scene 2 we filmed in the forest by the college. This was mainly down to accessibility, as well as it being a prime location for something like the murder to happen, so the audience will be able to relate to it and realise what has happened almost instantly.


Q) What do you feel you have improved on from the last project?
A) Personally, I have built experience more than anything. We researched more into every aspect of crime thrillers, and watched more existing films to give us a better impression. I have learnt how to use all the equipment to a higher standard and used this to make us more efficient through all the production stages. We went into more trouble with the mise-en-scene, and spent more time on the editing so that it looked a lot more professional.


Q) Have you used any animation or special effects in the project?
A) In the opening sequence, no, we tried to keep it as realistic as possible, however there would be special effects used later on in the film.
