FILM: Scripting

Before we could start filming we had to write up a script to follow that way we could see what we wanted in each scene and what we expected from the actors. Even thou we didn't want a lot of dialogue which is very common in short films as it isn't needed we still had to write up the stage directions so both we and the actors knew what to do. This is our script:

During filming we tried it with the dialogue at the start but also tried it with out and found that we preferred the scene without as it had a better effect and fitted better with the style of short films. During most of the film we used either diagetic sound or complete silence except for when she is attacked as she pleads for them to stop this emphasis the fact that she is speaking as it's the only dialogue that is heard in the whole film.

We then later decided to put in music to add a relaxed feeling then when the attack occurred it would be a sudden change and there would only be empty silence creating a strong atmosphere of tension.
