Research & Planning - Horror Films on the Weekend



During the weekend, the horror film '28 Weeks Later', sequel to the British independent horror film, '28 Days Later' was on Film 4. I managed to pluck up the courage and watch it as i am very cowardly towards horror films, but this film was very helpful for my groups future horror trailer as it will be based in Urban area, I took some notes of what mise-en-scene was used in the film.


Location:
  • Film was based in London, Urban area, various parts were filmed and they were also deserted.
  • Some rural areas were also filmed e.g. Fields
  • Deserted Tube Stations
Props: 
  • Army Merchandise e.g. Weapons, shelters, 
  • Hospital gear e.g. face masks, gowns, Microscope
  • Warning signs
  • Tear gas
  • Supplied food
Clothing
  • Army Uniform
  • Dark shades, not clean
  • Stained, bloody, ripped
Make-up
  • Fake blood near eye area and coming out of the mouth, also on wounded areas
  • Light Contact lenses e.g. red,white or faded blue
  • Saw some unpleasant body parts
This is what I have seen whilst watching the film, we can't include most of Mise-en-scene areas as they are either dangerous or not available.
