A teenage boy plans a romantic picnic for his girlfriend, but she is kidnapped by his best friend instead. The best friend lures the girlfriend into the woods by impersonating the boyfriend over text. When the girlfriend arrives at the clearing, the best friend jumps out and chases her as she screams and runs away. The film will explore this crime from the perspectives of the boyfriend, who becomes a suspect, the girlfriend during her kidnapping, and the motives of the best friend who wants to "make the world pure." Filming will take place at a house kitchen, the woods behind the school, and potentially the school kitchen itself.

5. Locations
House outside school kitchen filming
We decided to do the kitchen scenes inside a house to make it more personal to the
audience so that they can relate with the surroundings. Also we have chosen to do
this because it fits with the conventions of a thriller film of it happening in a normal
peaceful neighborhood.
Backup location- Rainham School for girls kitchen in C block
If we are unable to get a house kitchen then we will use the school cooking rooms
as they have everything we need, but it will make it less personal and therefore
might make it harder for the audience to be able to relate.
Rainham school for Girls Wooded area filming
We will be using the wooded area behind the school because it is local and we feel
safe to film there without any trouble, one problem could be the home for the
elderly next to the wooded area so we will have to take this into consideration
when filming not to break their privacy and to not get it in the shots

6. Questionnaire Questions

7. Age Rating & Target Audience
Age rating is 15+
• We have chosen this because it won’t have features such as sex which
would make it an 18 but will include features such as violence and
explicit language which makes it a 15. Target audience is 16 to 24
• We have chosen this age because we believe that our opening movie
will appeal to this age group. We have also chosen this target audience
because these age groups have money so they are more likely to go to
the cinema or other places.
