We have decided as a group that we would like the opening of iWatch will be set in an open field, to create the feel of an empty desolate place that is eerie and makes the audience suspicious. Luckily, all members of our group live fairly close to each other and we all live relatively close to the location we have decided to use for our horror film opening, which is completely accessible for all of us and our cast. Below are some pictures of the location:
As you can see, it is a very open space that is surrounded by trees. This picture was taken on quite an overcast day in the late afternoon, which is what we're hoping for when we film. This is because from the picture, you can see that it creates quite a dreary and eerie effect, yet it still creates mystery and tension, just through the weather.
Here, is a picture of a tree that we are hoping to use as the memorial for the victim for the opening of iWatch. We chose this because, it stands out from all the other bare, dull trees that surround it. This makes it seem very out of the ordinary and helps add mystery to the opening. The picture on the right shows a picture of the pathway leading up to the tree. This makes filming very easy and practical, as it is clear to the audience that as the figures are walking, you will be able to see the tree poking out from all the trees as well as the open space around it.
This picture was taken on a separate occasion, despite this, I have simply included it in this post as an alternative to the tree above. However, I don't think that this tree is more of a memorial as the other one. Also, it doesn't create the same effect as the tree above because it is a lone tree and doesn't stand out as much. The reason we used this as an alternative was for the particular appearance of the tree. As you can see, it is very bare and thin, which makes it look quite creepy, however it is not as accessible and wouldn't work practically to film with considering the area it is.
