Poster Draft

This is currently the poster I have created. Although I like the effect, I am going to change the font at the bottom as I think it is too bold. I am also going to change the height of the title, as I think it is too stretched out.

Bloody Hand Print

Over the Christmas Holidays I experimented with different ways of creating bloody hand prints on paper to scan in to the computer.

I eventually decided to simply mix together red and green food colouring to get the desired effect and colour.

As you can see above, the original picture is not as dramatic as it could be, so I decided to edit it using a photo editing website called Picnik.

The new image is far more dramatic and eye catching than the original was, and will work much better as a poster.

I am in the prosess of editing the image by adding text.

Poster Idea

After filming on Tuesday, Beth left a bloody hand print on my window.

I have decided that I am going to scan in an image of a bloody hand print and use it as the poster.

Filming

After planning to film, the cast and I filmed at my house on Tuesday.

Unfortunately, due to the time it gets dark at this time of the year I had to change the location to my back garden in order to have enough light with which to film.
I have a floodlight in my back garden which made the footage look as though it was still night time, but you can still see.

I still have to create a new storyboard for the changes I have made.

Zoeys Outfit

Over the weekend I decided to make Zoeys outfit. I made a bottle of fake blood out of cornflour, red and green food colouring and coffee.

I then splatted the white shirt with the fake blood.

Plot

I have decided to use 4 people to conduct the seance. This is because when I looked up seances online the instructions said that it was advisable to use multiples of 3 people as 3 is the magic number.

The reason the seance goes wrong and Zoey comes back evil is because her friends used the wrong number of people to try and bring her back.

Filming

I have arranged to begin filming my trailer next Tuesday after school.

Laura starts work at 6pm, which won't be a problem, as I will be filming between 3.30 and 4.30, and by the time she needs to leave it will be too dark to film.

Maddi and Beth are planning to ped to my house to film, and Laura will drive me, Caryn, Lizzie and herself.

I am going to write a letter to my neighbors to let them know I will be filming on Tuesday, so any children don't get scared of Beths zombie-like appearance.

Zoeys Costume

`

I am going to dress Zoey in a long white shirt like the one pictured above. This is because the white is typically assoociated with purity and goodness, which Zoey most definately isn't when she comes back. She is also going to wear dark skinny jeans ahd have bare feet.

As I am planning to make Zoey's shirt look blood stained and dirty I have researched the best fake bloods that are available for an affordable price. one of the best is Mehron Stage Blood, which is only £5.99 and available on Amazon. Alternatively, could make blood using this recipe.



Location Pictures

Above are two location photos St Peters Church in Sible Hedingham. I am going to be using this location in the first few shots of my trailer.

As it is very close to my school it is easy to get to, and there are parking spaces close by which will make it easy to get the equipment to and from school.
