Production Planning

  Plot

Possible ideas 

- There's a man who's curiosity gets the better of him. He see's a seedy farm house which appears to be abandoned. He witnesses  a suspicious event that could be linked with a past event in his life. A deja vu style horror/thriller.

- Dark room interrogation style set up. Bright spot light. The character is tied up to the chair.
- Camera shot pans around the tied legs of a character
- First initial camera shot turns into a focus pull

- As the camera pans around the tied character, a bright flash back rolls, which shows his last memories of the event
- He walks into a field and examines the abandoned area
- Camera cuts to a POV shot of somebody watching him
- Protagonist gets captured by he antagonist who sneaks up behind him

Props

For the main interrogation part of our production we will need to use some props. We will need  some weapons that will be placed on the table which will help it look like a interrogation scene as well as making the protagonist feel threatened by the antagonist, on the table there will be a hammer, pliers and a knife, all these will have a close up on them. We will also need something in order to tie up the protagonist this will either be some rope or cable ties. We will also need some fake blood in order to make the interrogation appear to be more realistic.

Where we will be filming our production?

This is where we are planning on filming our production. It is a abandoned farm in Glen Parva however it is on a public footpath. We have been there before previously and we believe that it is the idea place to film our production here as the surroundings on the farm will give our production a eerie feel to our production.

Possible title names

Forgotten
Forgotten is relevant to the plot and the storyline as the protagonist is having flashbacks and is trying there best to try and remember what has happened.
Abandoned
We chose this title as we thought that it linked into the setting and where we was going to film our production which is an abandoned farm.
Unknown
The reason why we chose the title unknown is because of the protagonist not knowing what his fate will be after the interrogation has taken place.
The Interrogator
The protagonist will be getting interrogated throughout the opening of our production which is why we chose this title name.
Condemned 
We thought this would be a good name as the house is indeed condemned where we will be filming the main part of our production

In the end we decided to go with the name of Condemned, we did this because we thought that Forgotten was the most relevant to the storyline and the plot of our production and for this reason it fitted our production nicely.

 Below I have taken the title of Condemned and I have created it multiple times using different fonts and font sizes in order to get the best look for our production.

Shooting schedule

We will be filming the main part of our production on this day at the farm. We will be filming there from 4:30pm to 6:00pm as this will be when it is beginning to get dark.
