Some last minute cast cancellations caused us to consider our plans set out by the storyboard and we thought the trailer would be too long, lacking pace and tempo as well as suspense. We decided that we to make the flashback the main part of our trailer and the tour would now be a small scene at the end, with the dialogue acting as a voice over for the flash back. This would ensure the trailer is below 60 seconds and would introduce the audience immediately into an intense chase scene combining mystery, tempo, suspense and ultimately grabbing the attention of the viewer:

New Script:

We filmed our footage at the two locations as planned; Highgate Cemetery and The Heath. We were able to replace our absent cast members after a number of last minute phone calls and the day went according to plan. We provided our killer with props and costume to create an accurate mise en scene. This included a white cotton dress, resembling that of the nightwear used in the 1800s (the time period the flash back takes place) as well as fake blood to indicate injury from the intensity of the chase as well as genre.The BBFC guide lines state that a 15 movie can include ‘strong bloody violence and horror’ therefore we were allowed to do this. We were unable to obtain a rope of the right length and thickness to use as a prop, making it significantly difficult to indicate the muder weapon however our title ‘Hanging On The Heath’ will be enough to suggest this. Also, my holding this information back, a sense of mystery can be achived. The footage was predominantly filmed myself with my other peers acting as the students. I ensured a variety of shots including handheld shots were used to create an unsettled atmosphere.
