Age Group

Developing my research from film genre, I wanted to find out what age group people watch horror films.


Looking at this research I have found the age group of 10 – 30 is the most popular for watching horror films. This mainly consists of teenagers and young adults. When asking the people who watch this genre, in what environment do they watch these films?  The majority answered ‘with a group of friends at one of our houses’

Location- Begbroke Church

Begbroke Church

Begbroke Church is the perfect location for the attack in our opening sequence. The house located next to the church and is going to be the exterior shot, to establish where the couple live. The graveyard has ironic and appropriate connotations of death. 

Advantages
·         House and church located next to each other
·         Located in same village as two members of the team so logistics is easy
·         Provides a lot of corners for our attacker to hide
·         Both the house and church have a rural, hidden and isolated setting
·         Naturally beautiful and homely feel to the scenery

Disadvantages
·         Uncontrollable factors like weather can provide visual problems
·         Located near an airport so planes may fly above
·         Considering the public (especially in a graveyard)

Location- Water Eaton

Water Eaton Park and Ride:

For the scene in which the audience discovers how truly creepy the attacker is (in which he is revealing his shrine to all those he has killed.) We chose the interior location of the abandoned factory at water Eaton park and ride.

Advantages :
·         Car parking space
·         Good establishing shot
·         A lot of space to use
·         A lot of floors to work with
·         Scary scenery

Disadvantages:
·         Technically illegal to trespass
·         Health and safety is at a risk
·         Limited lighting
·         No power source

Last Day Filming Review


This was our last day to film and we managed to complete everything set out to film. The aim was to set out and film the attack.

Environment
As good of a location Bebgroke church was, we didn’t take into consideration environmental factors. The fact we we’re filming in a graveyard meant the public came to pay their visits.

Location
Begbroke is located near Kidlington airport which is something not realised when scouting the location. This of course distributed our filming greatly however with completing all the footage needed to be filmed there was no need to go back.
