We watched our film back and looked at different images we could take screenshots of to feature in our review. This is a very important decision, as they would need to be effective and interesting because they are the first preview photo/s that our audience will see before the film is released.
We decided to choose an image from the attack scene, as it is the main climax of the short film. We liked this image, as it shows a good facial expression that connects to the situation. However, we thought it was too blurry and a little too dark.
We liked this image but it had the same issue as the first one we selected because it seemed a little blurry and unclear.
This image looked a lot clearer and also lighter, however, it still has the dark effect that emphasises danger and what is happening. We liked the way the light corridor can be seen in the background, as it creates a contrast with the darkness - she has left her old, happy life/personality behind and is entering a new, dark and painful life. The corridor is also at an angle, which suggests it has been turned upside down. We decided to use this image, however we thought it would be a good idea to include a picture of the attacker, as the review mainly talks about the two new actresses.
We liked this image, as the viewers are able to see the 'hatred' look within the attackers eyes. The close up could represent how close she is to attacking Lacey.
However, we then came up with the idea to include an image from the short mimed flashback scene of Lacey arguing with the attacker before Lacey was attacked by her. We thought that this would be interesting, as it creates a contrast showing Lacey as the victim, in comparison to her not looking so innocent, as she is the one that is grabbing the attacker, first, in this image. As a result of this, we decided to include the two images in the review, creating a split, contrasting main image.
