location
For our opening title sequence we filmed in a large house (Leanne's), which has lots of rooms to show there are different places the killer is able to go, and the victim is able to run about the house to get away. Having a big house makes the victim feel small and isolated, but the house that we have chosen is surrounded by other houses on a busy street, this shows that the victim is secure as there are people around to help. This creates a false sense of security, as even though the victim is surrounded by people, there is nobody to help her when she needs it. The location of the house is great; this is because it is situated on a busy road which shows there is always going to be people around, either pedestrians, cyclists or drivers.

First of all we were going to film the same idea of someone babysitting but they were going to take the children to the park. Then thats where the children would go off and come back possessed. This would create security for the character as there would be people around to help if they needed it. It also meant the children would be able to run around and have some freedom meaning that something could happen or go wrong. As a group we decided against this as it would be too free for anything to go wrong and the victim could run away easily - she isn't going to be cornered or stuck anywhere. Also there would be many people around to help or see things, meaning that they could be a witness.

Within the house there are several bedrooms and corridors; this creates a more tense atmosphere as there is a variety of places for the victim to run and try and get away. With different rooms as well, the victim is able to be cornered or locked in a room and not able to get away.

We decided to film at Leanne's house as it was the perfect location. It's right in the centre of a main road which indicates many people travel down there each day. It's also a large house so people will be drawn to it and so if they heard any noises then they would wander what was going on. Also because it is on a main road, in the evening with the lights on it would attract attention and be lit up.
