Heather

Heather - Scream Queen

• We wanted to include a key slasher convention in our

• fit perfectly in our slasher.

We felt that Heather would fit the role perfectly for our scream queen because she is blonde which is the stereotypical scream queens hair colour.

Using a Green Screen

Mise En Scene:

Crows flying across the camera shot to signify the slasher genre also signifying horror.

Each of our characters will have a certain costume to fit their role e.g. the doctor will be wearing a white lab coat and 'smiley pete' will be wearing a patients gown to signify that he is a patient with in the asylum. Also this will create a sense of realism in our opening.

Weapon of choice-Kitchen Knife we used intertextuality from psycho for this idea because it was the original weapon and we decided we wanted our work to contain originality.

Use of the forrest which is right next to High Royds for an escape route for 'Smiley Pete'. This is a location the is used in many films, as somewhere to run/ escape for example The Last House On The Left.
