Jacob was cast as Ridgeway as he is
a keen actor with lots of experience.
He looks sadistic, scary and psychotic
which is essential for the role. The beard
allows him to look older which is needed
for Ridgeway. It was a pleasure to cast
Jacob in the role after he showed much
enthusiasm for the film and character.

9. LOCATION- SCHOOL
These shots are the
location shots for the
scene outside the school.
The top two shots are the
main shots from the
scene. We chose the
positioning as it is a large
area allowing for clear
shot taking and filming.

10. LOCATION- POLICE STATION
We used the police station
as it is a believable setting
for the arrest of Ridgeway. It
will convey to the audience
that Ridgeway is a criminal
and show he is the
antagonist from the start.

11. LOCATION- JACK’S HOUSE
We used Jack’s House because it is a rural
house, this signifies abandonment and
mystery. It allows the audience to feel more
emotion for Lucy. The house also has land
we can utilise to make our scenes look
rural/country. PIC OF

12. PROPS
We used a rocking chair as it is a
convention horror prop and it also adds
elements of fear to the character.
By using a music box we can incorporate
creepy music into our trailer. The music
box is the main association between
Ridgeway and Lucy. This allows the
audience to create greater tension as they
can see and hear the music box before
Lucy in scenes.
By using a laptop we are using an everyday
tool used by young adults. It allows the
audience to relate to Lucy easier and guess
her age.

13. COSTUME
This is some of the costume that
Ridgeway will wear. We will use plain
black trousers as they are dark
symbolising death and darkness. We
will also use black gloves to give the
character some mystery. The hat will
conceal the characters face more
adding to the mystery of the character.
