Today we picked the best three people who we fort would be best at acting in our horror film.
We looked at each indviduals Advantages and Disadvantags.

Emilie Hickford.
Advantages: Emilie took drama for GCSE and is an excllent actress and is also normaly free during the week.
Disadvantages: she works at the weekend so wewould have to find a time to suit her which could introupt filimg.


Eloise Hewitt.


Advantage: she loves to act and is in a drama group.
Disadvantage: she is at college and working so would be hard to find time when we're all free.


Shannon Slow.


Advantage:Shannon also took Drama for GCSE and has a passion for acting.

We finally chose Emilie Hickford to star in our horror film as we feel she suits the role and is more felxiable then the others.

Today we carried on with our pre-production stage. We took some pictures of a range of possible locations were we could film our horror opeing. we also talked about the advantages and disadvantages of each location.

Location one: Harriets Bedroom.




Advantage: its a farily big bedroom which will give us enough room to film. Also decorated as a mature teen. the house is normaly quiet as everyone is at work or school.
Disadvantage: may need a few props to make it look more girly.

Location two: Taylors bedroom.





   Advantage: this is the biggest bedroom so is ideal for filming as we would be able to move freely.
Disadvantage: may need to add some posters and photos to make it look more like a teen bedroom.

Location three: my bedroom.


Advantage: typical girly teen bedroom so wouldnt need much changing.
Disadvantage: the smallest bedroom so may be to cramped when filming.


After looking at each advantage and disadvantage we then decided Hatties bedroom would be best to film as is a good size, the house is normaly quiet and is close to school.
