Filming!

I started by filming at 'Harry Ramsdens at The Wingerworth' taking lots of different shots so I had a vary of shots to choose from. I tried to find the best place to film the victim, I finally shot it in the basement store room. Then I filmed at my house in my kitchen, to make sure the mise-en-scene was correct for the film I cleaned the whole kitchen so it would show Owen as being a very neat person. When filming I wanted to get across the idea that Owen Matthews had mental issues so I tried to get across that he has OCD. I did this by making the actor (Mick Wyldbore-Wood) to wash his hands several times so I had a lot of shots to choose from. I then made sure he was ok with using bleach on his hands, which he was, I then proceeded to film this. When filming in my house, I tried to get that the film was British, I did this by mise-en-scene, E.g British cleaning brands and making tea. I chose making tea as its a universal stereotype for British people.
When deciding for the film, I chose to stick with the stereotype of a male kidnapper/villain and a female victim. I felt that this got across to the audience the whole story in a short space of time.
