1. Analysis of Script
Scenes one, two and three
We thought about doing it through the
bedroom window because it seems like
someone is preying on the girl. The
window is from her bedroom so it shows
where the action takes place.
We want to cut to the scene of the girl
coming into the house, exaggerate that
she’s alone. You’ll be able to see the girl
walk into the house turn the lights on
and walk up the stairs.
By having the scenes keep cutting to
each other, it adds tension especially if
we edit it together well.
2. Scenes four, five and six
We thought if we see the girl walking
alone down the corridor, it would isolate
her. But we didn’t want to add too much
in like, extra characters or talking
because we thought that it is supposed
to only be the beginning of the film so
their wouldn’t be much storyline anyway.
We’ve already done a lot of cutting from
one scene to another, so we thought that
this scene could all blend into one
otherwise it could look like it’s trying to
add too much tension and won’t be
affective.
3. Scenes seven, eight and nine
By her sitting on the bed and no where
else in her room, the girl is directly
underneath the attic and also on the bed
there isn’t much detail going on so you
can focus of the acting.
We’re going to do the magazine flickering
by using a hairdryer but cutting out the
sound. We thought this would be a good
idea because if we just did the banging
from above it wouldn’t as been as
effective on its own.
When she is going to pull down the
ladder we’re going to go behind her so
we can catch her walking up towards the
attic and hopefully get it from different
angles.
4. Scenes ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen
and fourteen
Showing her pulling down the
ladder, getting these shots from
different angles will add to the whole
suspense we’re hoping to build up.
Low angle from her feet show us
using different agles and using them
well hopefully.
These scenes in the attic are all going
fairly slowly, very different and in
contrast from before where the
scenes are all cut together.
