Audience ProfileThe thriller is aimed at young adults as they are able to familiarise themselves with the school setting shown in the flashback and get into the complex, maybe quite disturbing storyline. This is something a younger audience might not be able to do.With the film having an independent female head, it targets more specifically at women of this age.
Style and Inspiration
Martin Scorsese – Red lighting/filter
Psycho – Shower scene
Run Lola Run – Music, Voiceover, Climax at beginning
Sound
• A track called Fear Factor
• Voice over
• Sound effects: distortion of sound when the flashbacks appear
Atmosphere and Mood
• The atmosphere is going to be eerie and create tension this will be accomplished in the first scene by the sound and lighting.
• We’ve considered camera angles since this will have an effect on the audience
• Showing the audience what the characters can’t see. This creates tension and suspense.
• Colours used such as red and black will symbolize evilness, thrill, murder
Audience Research
