Welcome to my blog for my A2 Media Studies coursework. With Hayley Pitcher, we have planned and created a 5 minute pyschological thriller entitled 'Mind Trap', which focuses on the life of Lucy, a teenager suffering from schizophrenia. As well as this, we have created two anciliary products; an audio advert that would be fit to broadcast on the radio and a poster to advertise our film to our demographic.

16th March 2011

As I have mentioned previously, our first edit was deemed too short at 4:11. Today, Hayley and I planned an extra scene that would involve the children's play area in Crystal Palace Park. The scene would feature Lucy hearing children's voices playing in the park, but they are not there and the park is empty. The swings and the roundabout move, but they are empty.
This scene would fit some conventions because children's voices brings in the innocence of Lucy and the fact that they are not there can be linked to death and ghosts.
We decided that the best time to film this would be during the school day because the park will be empty, but we will need to get permission from the school to allow us to leave school.
Below are the notes that we made about the extra scene:
