At the beginning of the scene, Amelia is alone in a classroom doing school work. We chose this location because it was isolated so it would go with the horror conventions. A classroom is usually known for being safe and secure as many students see it as a second home which could potentially create more fear for the audience because they know school to be a safe environment and they can relate to this kind of setting. This classroom is quite old which makes it seem eerie.
For the rest of the scene, Amelia is walking home alone through the woods.The woods is also another horror convention but it also creates a sense of the unknown as anything could be hiding in the woods. The woods shows that our film is set in Britain because of the weather and scenery. We decided to have a British setting because then our target audience can relate to it as they can with the classroom.
