10. Themes and messages
• The human nature towards fear
• The humans will to survive
• The mystery that a mask can incite
• Using filming and editing techniques
to create suspense
• Exploring the ways of creating power
in some characters
11. Codes and conventions we will use
Conventions that we wish to
incorporate - Enigma (Flash Backs),
Mystery (Character/story line),
confusion, Darkness (The Unknown),
Death, Morally complex character (Is
really mysterious and unknown to the
audience) - “Narrative Retardation”,
The use of silence - this is used to create
tension and suspense between the
audience and maybe characters -
Pathetic Fallacy - Calm before the storm
- Foreshadowing what’s to come later
on in the film
12. Practical details
We intend to film somewhere close to the school
as this would work best for all members in the
group as it is easy to get too. For casting we will
use all 4 members of the group one more girl
and a male adult. We want to use all natural
lighting so filming between midday and late
afternoon would be optimal. A problem in the
group is that Danny is away for two weeks
starting today so he will miss out on the lessons
we have however we intend to use technology
such as Skype to stay in communication with
him and he will make sure he is still making
regular posts on the blog
