Murder location

The murder location will be set in a family home. The murder scene will be mainly in the kitchen at the kitchen table. Blood will be smeared on the table and work surfaces to establish a murder scene. This location is easily accessible to us as one of the blog girls lives here and therefore we can film here whenever is necessary.

Friends house

This house will be used as Chloe’s friends’ house. We chose this location as one of the blog girls lives here and therefore it is easily accessible for us to use at all times.

Prison Scenes

The interrogation room will look like this. It is an office in Ruislip High School and is therefore accessible for us.

Extra mise en scene will be added for example papers and stationary to make it seem more realistic.

We have chosen to use parts of the school for the prison scenes as we think this will look the most realistic and it is easy for us to access. We are using the school canteen area for the visiting room. The characters will be sitting opposite one another at a table.

Drug Dealing scene

For the drug dealing scene we have decided to use a dodgy-looking alley to create suspense. It is also a dark and dim area which fits with conventions of drama/thriller films. This is where Jason will show ‘mysterious’ and ‘deviant’ behavior.
