CONSTRUCTION: FILMING THE ABDUCTION

The last scene we filmed was the abduction scene. For this we had the little girl alone outside. We showed she was alone through a mid shot of her outside her house. We then cut to a close up shot of the girl, we then had the woman walk into the shot and offer a sweet packet to the little girl. A close up showed the little girl look up at the woman as she takes the sweet. This is very effective as it shows how easy it is to manipulate a child. Finally we placed the camera down at a lower level to show a close up of the little girl and the woman holding hands as they walk out of shot. We liked this as one of the final images as it has a powerful impact over the audience.
