Recce of Location & Hazard/Assessment Risks

THE OLD ST. CUTHBERTS PRIMARY SCHOOL

      
Once all of the objects in this shot are moved, it will leave a mysterious curtain that my antagonist can use for jumping out and shocking the audience. Therefore, this reinforces the horror genre because it is a traditional mise-en-scene feature an audience would expect in an abandoned area.


This door can be used to build suspension because it is enclosed to suggest there is no escape once you are there, and the audience and characters are unaware of whats on the other side. Therefore, this provokes fear, which is the genuine feature to a horror film opening.



This long shot generates fear because it shows a mysterious building that is excluded from people and other buildings. This is also a shot I took with the inspiration of my production in mind because it is almost identical to the second photo within that PowerPoint. The dark lighting reinforces this fear and again, meets the codes and conventions of a horror film.


This is the same door that provoked fear, but from the other side. YOu can see that the mess surrounding it suggests you shouldn't be entering the room. However, this still creates tension and would make an excellent match on action shot.


This is a longer shot of the curtain to show I have thought of contrasting shots from close-ups to long shots.
