Once fallen asleep Sam’s to have flashbacks of Kim's death as Emma

freeze the frame on her Face, the picture will then change to a negative

Emma’s face. We the see the title appear next to the lighter. The lighter
then gets blown out by wind. We then hear a click and another click

4. We are aiming to create a mystery, dark, action thriller that draws the
audience in.
We listened to our focus groups and responses to our questionnaire. So
we have made the story line in the style and tone that the our audience
want. The audience wanted us to appeal to a female audience, one of
the ways we are going to do this is have the lead character as a female.
All the shots will be a low lighting and shadowy. Towards the end of the
film opening the shots will be nearly pitch black.
“Spooks” influenced us with the negative effect as it creates a
spooky, uneasy atmosphere. This does this by using the effect to distort
our faces and to change the colour to foreshadow that these characters
will be important.
5. Following the questionnaire and focus group. We discussed as a group
that we should make our action thriller apple to both men and women.
However we think that no one under the age of 15 should see it as it
promotes violence and includes troubling images.
We also think that people over the age 55would not really be interested
in action thrillers.
In our questionnaire the people that responded said that we should
make it more appealing to women by making the lead character a female
this is centred around Emma.
The audience also wanted to see some romance thought out so Sam
try's to save Kim.
We are going to attract our audience by following there advice and
guidance in the questionnaire and focus group.
