This document provides costume, makeup, hair, and location ideas for the horror film "The Entwined". It describes the pale face paint, blood, and dark eyeliner that will be used to make the possessed younger sister appear corpse-like. It also outlines the vintage outfits and hairstyles that will portray the past and present sisters. Potential filming locations mentioned include a house in Harrow Wealdstone with both modern and vintage aesthetic appeal, a church near Uxbridge that could be used to tell the film's backstory, and Fassnidge Park which has forest paths suitable for chase scenes.

4. Images below illustrate the types of costumes that will be worn by the past sisters
and possibly the town’s old lady. (They are the two girls who initially experienced
the cult and its dangers). The clothes are meant to help create more a vintage look
and to show the old lady’s age.

8. The house we plan to film in, is situated in Harrow Wealdstone. The appearance
from the outside suits the two time periods within our narrative. The house looks
very vintage and slightly old fashioned however, at the same time, its appears to
be very modern looking due to the fact that it is painted white and the windows are
outwardly curved.

a high angle shot).
To date the house on the left has been painted white therefore making the shots
look more effective as the houses have the same appearance.
9. We may use the church located near Uxbridge. We would film exterior shot of
this church and the graveyard. This location will feature in the scene where the
older modern sister meets the ‘old wise lady of the town’ and she is told the
shocking history of the house that she has just moved into.

would be easy to film there at any time.
10. We may also film in Fassnidge park
that is situated in Uxbridge. It
features a canal and some great
secret pathways through a small
forest that has been created by
local walkers. These would prove
useful in the scenes where the
older sisters are running through
the woods in search of their
younger sisters.
