Research and Planning: Organisation of Location

This is the hallway leading to Sam's room, this is where the actor will be walking towards at the end of the trailer. This hallway will be shot slowly, and the door from the Sam's room will slowly open. The reason why were having this bedroom to shot is because its directly behind the character after she checks on her kids. When something is behind someone, it makes it seem more daunting to the audience and character.

 This is the kid's bedroom, when we shoot the trailer we will move the suitcase and clear the room up. Because we aren't going to use real children we are going to place pillows underneath the covers to give the illusion that there are children there. For the shoot we will make sure that the room is set up as if its a childrens room. To do this we'll have some small lights on as children don't like to sleep in the dark, also i will have teddy's and toys in their to suggest its a childrens room.
This is the hallway, with the stairs where Sam will be running. This photo is of the view from the downstairs hallway of the stairs. This is where we are planning to shoot the mother (Sam) running up the stairs to check on her kids.
 This is the front door, where we will be filming the neighbour scene. When we shoot were going to do from both points of view of the charcters. the reason we choose to have the neighbour come to the door is because thats what neighbours would usually do if they saw someone in their neighbours garden.
This is the window in the kitchen where Sam will run in and the window will be wide open. We will clear the objects on the counter top. The reason why we are going to shoot one of the scenes in the kitchen is because from here you can get a clear view of the back garden, which in the trailer the murderer has been in.
For each of the locations, we will set it up so that the lighting is suitable and also that any items are removed which are not going to make sense with our plot. For example pictures of family members of the current household, ect.
