We pitched our idea and received some useful feedback that we will develop on for when we film. Our main piece of feedback was about location. In our pitch we had proposed a few different locations. Our feedback loved the location of the shipping yard accept it would be too hard to film there. Our feedback was also that our group could film in the school dining room at night this would make the setting very creepy and it will have high suspense. Our feedback did not like the idea of the woods at night just because of lighting issues as well as it being very cliche so if we were going to film it here we would have to do it during the day. So the dining room at school is our main location idea, the sensor lights in the kitchen will also make it creepy. The props around the kitchen as well could look the fight scene look more realistic. Our feedback was also to establish the characters of the bad guys for example what costumes will they be wearing as well as what they are doing there. The feedback was that they could be baddies disguised as cleaners.
We were worried that by dressing our main actress in the clothes usually you would find in a workplace that this would imply the idea that the woman is a professional. When in fact this is the complete wrong connotation that we are pursuing. We need innocence and pure. Although this costume bellow may have fit in better with the environment and setting of the film. The piece is based of contrasts and subverting what people would expect. It is why we have decided to go against the usual work place attire.
Another issue we had while choosing our costume was the fact that Crerar needs to be able to move in her costume, she performs stunts and does a lot of big and dramatic movements. So her costume had to be aesthetically pleasing but also practically useful. This was an essential balance that we had to get right, And so i did some research into films that require this sort of movement and studied the costumes that they wear.
