Production: Final day of filming- On the heath


Today we filmed our final shots on the heath, we chose to go there as we needed to show our protagonist in an isolated, empty space and the heath is perfect for this at the moment as it is full of bare trees, woods and on camera looks like an empty woods. This fit's with Burton's theory as he says that locations/settings often follow a particular theme in that the places horror films are set are normally isolated and secluded from the rest of society.

In order to experiment with different angles our friend helped us to climb up a tree which meant we were able to film at a variety of different angles and use different shot types. For example we filmed a wide long shot at a high angle of a couple that were about to be victims of the killer, the use of the high angle allows the viewer to feel as though they are an onlooker into the action, almost as if they are spying.
