This document discusses planning locations and props for a Blair Witch-style student film project. It identifies potential outdoor locations like woods/forests and run-down houses. Indoor locations like hallways and rooms are also mentioned. Evidence of scouting various locations is provided. Props needed include Blair Witch stick figures, flashlights, and tents. Costume plans aim to make outfits increasingly ragged over the course of filming to match the trailer. A script and storyboards are also referenced.
2. Location Ideas
Locations
Woods/forest:
Needs to be
relatively dark and scary,
as seen in the trailer.
Run down house:
Only exterior. Must
be quite creepy.
Interior hallways/rooms
(Scary and normal):
Must have a room for the
beginning of the trailer, and scary
hallways for some scenes
Road:
In the woods, as seen in
the trailer
3. Location scouting evidence
I visited this house in
Windsor, but
unfortunately there was
work being done to it,
so I could not go near.
I looked at these
hallways in my school to
see if they were usable in
out swede.
I looked at this park in
Windsor to use in
our forest scene, but it
was too far away
from us.
5. Props and Costume!
Props that are needed are, blair witch stick figures (roughly around 10), a large flash light and a tent.
I need to make the 10 figures by collecting enough twigs together,
I would then need to snap 1 half of the bottom half of the bunch of stucks to the right and the other
half of the sticks on the bottom to the left and seletape that bunch together.
with the upper half, around 1 third, needs
to go to the right, 1 third needs to go to the
teft and the rest stay streight. This gives it
the look of being a figure. (On the right,
Is the end product and below is the process labeled)
The other props are easily accessible but will be shown
under the stick figure guide also.
6. Costume!
Every characters costume in the trailer has been raggy, torn or suitible for long hikes (not smart or valuble).
This means that costume will need to be changed throughout filming. If we segment the different scenes of the
trailer, into 1 chronological timelime, we are able to decide which scenes to film first and after each
chronological scene, we can make the costume more and more tattered/ worm out as the escape from the blair
witch. (Below are images of selected pieces of clothing used to suit the trailer
