Organising

Today is the day that we are trying to get things organised, which for me as Producer means a busy day. Anneke and I came up with a fantastic idea on how to get a filming location after we decided that the ones we have easily available to us don't really fit our chosen aesthetic. So book-a-batch is now one of my best friends, we sent a very well worded emails to people with holiday rental houses that were local and we liked the look of asking if they would please consider allowing us to use their house for filming free of charge. Surprisingly to us we got several positive replies and we have ended up with a small, creepy house in Long Bay that we will be using as Dorothy's house and the setting for the majority of the plot.

We also worked today on the story board and script, our script so far is less to do with dialogue as I think of conventional scripts having and a lot more to do with the who, what and where of each new scene and discussing how might be the best way to shoot it. This is because as a horror with only one character present for most of the screen time we found it more constructive to focus on how we were going to create the right mood and excite tension in the audience when they are watching the film.
