The still images were taken on one of our group memebers Digital Camera. Some of the shots for example the basket ball and the shots of half the killers face, were staged. This alowed us to create a certain mise-en-scene that corresponded with our storyline. The others were taken whilst on location where we were able to gain more realistic shots. The use of both staged and natural shots alowed us to chose from a wide range of stills for our film poster and magazine.
The mask we used on our killer was not too dissimilar from that of Michael Myers' in the Halloween movies. The use of the mask is a convention that has been repeated time and time again in the slasher horror genre. We decided to challenge and develop this convention by putting a modern feel on our mask and protagonist. The killers funky hair and youthful style of dressing gives a contemporary twist on our storyline.
