T1-28 : THRILLER PROJECT 2007/8

Rough cut

Postive Feedback - Good props, convict board was good, map was good, good in the forest, the screen was good, picture frame close up was a very good idea, pictures at the beginning was good, good panning shot, good steady shots, scream at end was good.
Negative Feedback - Frame shot needs work, isn't properly in order yet, picture in frame needs to be longer, steadier shots, dark/fuzzy at the start, shorts are too quick, not clear at the beginning, could cause confusion or epilepsy, sound was jumpy needs work. props and costumes are unsuitable, narrative bit unclear.

Suspect pictures


Throughout our sequence there will be flashes of supects, and eyewitnesses. These pictures will help us organise how we want these images to look.

Missing people statistics

We will be using missing poeple statistics at the end of our sequence, as the view is the picture of the four girls again we will have a voice over repeating these statistics.

- In a 1999 study Newiss found, across three sampled police forces, that the average number of missing person reports filed in that year was 3.6 per 1000 people in the population. (Newiss, 1999). Calculated for a UK population (as at mid 2006) of 60,587,000, this gives an estimate of 218,113 missing person reports every year. The total number of missing person reports each year is likely fall in the range of 210,000 to 230,000 in any one year.

- have estimated that at least 100,000 children go missing every year, or “one every five minutes”. (PACT, 2005: 18). Several studies have found that young people, aged under 18, account for around two thirds of all police missing person reports. This would suggest that the number of people under 18 reported missing each year could be as high as 140,000 to 153,000.

-Between the ages of 13 and 17 years, girls are more likely to be reported missing than boys. 71 per cent of 13-17 year olds reported missing to Missing People (1999-2000) were female.

Examples of what we hope our newspaper articles will look like.

Although some of the content in these newspaper articles are irrelivant the style used is not. these kind of articles give us ideas as to how we can present our newspaper articles. For example we can highlight certain areas, cross some out and write overtop of some.



This is an example of the kind of missing people posters we could have on our prop white board. However it wont be as bold as this, blut slighty more creepy and atmospheric.

Map ideas

We are using maps so we can annote them, giving a stonger sence of mystery. We will circle certain areas, highlight certain streets and places that 'the girls' were last seen.
Here are a few examples of maps we could use for this:








voice over list

we will need voice overs for the following:
-laughing girls
-police/radios/reports
-camera clicks
-eye witness people saying what they think they seen
-family members crying
-people screaming
- police sirens

prop list

We will need the following for our props:
-a cork board or white board
-newspaper clips/ headlines
-missing girl photos x 3
- suspect photos
-eye witness photos
-maps!!!!

Our basic idea for prop board
