2. Costume
• Girl: Pale white top, light skirt to show her
innocence.
• Therapist: Black trousers, white
shirt, smart clothes BUT wearing the same
black leather jacket as the attacker to
present a red herring
• Attacker: Dark dull clothes, black leather
jacket. Dark clothes to represent how they
are dangerous and ‘evil’. They will also
have a mask to conceal their identity.
4. Location
• Old park: (Heath Road Thurston) show
childhood innocence but also vulnerability
as the park is quite derelict, open spaced
and isolated.
• Railway bridge: (Thurston) desolate and
dark very quiet, small to show vulnerability
as less people will see the attack.
• Office: (Most likely student support) it’s set
out like a therapist office and looks official.
5. Lighting
• In the therapist’s office the lighting will be
very low key (chiaroscuro) and dull, this
will be to show the eerieness of the room
and keeping a common thriller convention
• In the attack/flashback the lighting will be
high contrast showing a bright white on the
scene this is to highlight the idea of a flash
back or a dream to the audience. This is
also a major convention of thriller films.
6. Props
• Mask possibly for the attacker to hide their
identity.
• Crowbar or similar weapon for the
attacker.
• Clipboard for the therapist.
