setting

For our setting we wanted a house that is slightly upper classed but still a working class home, by having a house like this i feel that we can target our audience, and for the people watching making it relate-able by having our house as a stereotypical upper/working class house with parents and a baby living in it. I believe that my house was perfect for our story line that we had chosen. My house is clean and tidy and has the perfect equipment and layout for the kind of camera angles and shots we wanted. I also had all the baby equipment we needed such as the baby monitor which is going to play a big role in creating the tension to the piece, i also have a statement fireplace with a grand mirror above it which also helps show our typical family upper class warm home. With this stereotypical slightly upper class house establishing that this is a family home it  should be safe and secure as stereo typically the rich white families in films and especially horror films are more safe than ethnic ones. The setting also helps contradict the idea of a nice safe home as it is situated within black park which automatically brings the stereotypical view of a thriller horror film as it is dark and spooky. I feel if we filmed in my house it would bring the right atmosphere and feel to what we are looking for, it gives the right message and stereo typically fits what we want.
