HK - Inspirations


Costume:

We put a lot of thought into what mask we wanted for our child to wear, our biggest inspiration for our choice was the film 'The Strangers' the mask's and costumes they wear are very simple and give a very chilling feel, by combining the mask but the characters still wearing normal civilian clothes.



Also another inspiration is from the film, 'Batman Begins', is the character 'Scarecrow' who has very similar mask to those characters from the strangers.
Both of the characters wearing the masks are the bad guys in the films and the scaryness of them straight away signifys horror. Both of these would be very simple to and cost effeciant to make so could be very easily re created into our coursework piece.


 
  
Casting Inspirations:

For casting for our girl we are looking  for a conventional character that is known as a 'scream queen'
The term "scream queen" is more specifically used to refer to the "attractive young damsels-in-distress" characters that have appeared in a number of films in the horror genre.
One of the prime examples of a scream queen would be the actor Drew Barrymore playing Casey in the 1996 slasher Scream.
Scream Queens are always, young usually attractive females that are represented as
sexually active.
