We have decided upon filming on Sadie's road for a number of reasons. Firstly, it is convenient for all of our actors and film crew as they live nearby. It also has mise-en-scene such as the bushes and general aesthetics described in our animatic. This is both cost saving and convenient.

Dates/Times for filming
We plan to film the opening sequence this friday (14th), as all our actors and equipment are available to filming that day. We confirmed the date after checking the weather forecast, which showed us that there would be copious amounts of cloud. This is perfect for our genre of film as it is stereotypically atmospheric.
We will shoot at around 7:30 on location, when there will be low lighting, but enough for us to be able to film. This fits in with the script in which the girls are leaving a party at night/early hours of the morning, and also adds to the unnerving feeling projected by the film. The filming will probably last around an hour, due to the number of takes, and different angles we predict to do.

Target Audience for 'Abduction'
Age: 16-30
Gender: Male and Female
Occupation: Part time jobs
Social class: Upper working class/Lower middle class
Interests: Crime, puzzle solving, the news
Person A:
Our ideal audience member would be around the age of 17, as this is the age of the majority of the characters in the film. This will allow them to relate as they will understand the social conventions of this age group. Person A could be either male or female as there are attractions for both genders. For example; generally speaking, males are more likely to enjoy this genre of film, and females will find it easier to relate as the most of the characters are teenage girls. Ideally they would have a part time job in order to pay for the film and any available merchandise. They are also likely to be of the low mid range of social classes. Person A would be someone who is interested in subjects with intrigue and mystery, and likes to work things out for themselves. They would love the element of surprise, which would make them the ideal candidate for stereotypical thriller with plot twists.

Storyboard Animatic
This is our storyboard animatic, created using a mixture of final cut pro, soundtrack pro, garage band, and photoshop. We hand drew our shots onto paper and then used a digital camera to take pictures of each individual image and upload them onto the Macs. After doing so, we proceeded to import the images onto Final Cut Pro and used the tools available to edit the shot length and timings into our desired sequence. We also created the title shot using photoshop and then transferred it across. We then used Soundtrack Pro to find and edit appropriate sound effects, and recorded one of our own using Garage Band. These were then imported into Final Cut Pro to be layered over the existing project. Finally, we used the tools to fine tune both the images and sounds, varying volume throughout, in order to ensure continuity.
