RESEARCH & PLANNING...

This post and many of the above shows the research and planning that Me and Eleona took out..

We had already decided that our concept would be called 'Ward 13' and would take place in a hospital. There were also a few movies to choose from that had taken place in a hospital; 'Horror Hospital' and 'The Eye'.. The film 'The unborn' also ties in with our concept as the story focuses on a twisted child torturing an adult for revenge

Whilst focusing on this that links to Mine and Eleona's chosen concept, we had to pay particular attention to;

-PROPS

(^^^OUR OWN PROP^^^)

LOCATIONS/SETTING

There will be three different settings during the trailer; the hospital where Maya haunts Doctor Lemmings, the office where the conversation between Donna and Doctor Lemmings takes place, and an isolated room where Doctor Lemmings is being tortured.

-MISE EN SCENE

When applied to the cinema, mise-en-scene refers to everything that appears before the camera and its arrangement - composition, sets, props, actors, costumes, and lighting. We made sure that for the indoor scenes that the lighting would be quite mellow, showing a formal atmosphere and the dullness of Ward 13. A lot of the mise-en-scene was covered but did play a crucial part of this trailer as it reflects the theme of the film. A very familiar part of mise-en-scene would be costume/ make up as it shows the abnormality of the creature or even some cuts and bruises to make it look realistic.

-CHARACTERS/COSTUMES

will be wearing this patient suit throughout portraying a lot about her character, this part of mise-en-scene alone shows that she is obviously ill and in need of care.

Doctor Lemmings will be in the doctor suit showing a huge part of his character as well; professional, hardworking and neat. We took other pictures to see what costume he would be suited in best.

-THEMES/MOTIFS/IDEOLOGY

The main theme and idea of 'Ward 13' focuses on REVENGE, torture and the break of promises which results in payback. Maya chooses to take vengeance on Doctor Lemmings due to his lack of commitment to his 'favourite' patient. He eventually forgot about her and his attitude when he finds out doesn't help out either. He soon realises that he is taking a turn for the worst

-STARS

There are three main actors in this movie;

The main character is Doctor Lemmings, played by David Ajala. David Ajala has also had experience in the Television industry as he is an actor who has been in films such as The Dark Knight, Adulthood and an episode of Doctor Who. It was very fortunate to have him to be the main character as he is a fantastic actor and is very well experienced. Doctor Lemmings is a very hardworking and devoted Doctor reaching to the top. On his journey to hopefully receive a promotion, he forgets about his favourite patient Maya, then eventually regrets it.

Maya will be played by Hannah Ajala (myself) as I am very confident and strong with my acting skills and Mr Mazzocchi/Mr Rosen said if I wanted to act this character I could. Maya is a very lost character and isn't known well in the trailer; we only see the bad side of her as she tortures Doctor Lemmings.

Donna will be played by Emily who also has acting experience from studying Performing arts. Donna is also a mysterious character that works along side Doctor Lemmings but seems quite stern and assertive.
