title to be similar to our first idea so we had changed it slightly and came up with The Carpenter.
Even though we had to change our title for our production we were all happy with the title as it had
linked to the antagonist in the two minute sequence. The antagonist in the film is a carpenter in a
mask and majority of the scene is located in a carpenters workshop therefore as a group we had felt
that it linked well with our storyline. The title also follows thriller/horror conventions as majority of
thriller/horror film the titles give the viewers a small idea of what the film may be about. We had
chosen the title as the audience can identify that the film has something to do about a carpenter.

In our production we had used many props to help the location seem
realistic. The props used in our production such as the wooden mallet
which was used to torture Lucy. The wooden mallet relates to our storyline
as the tools lying there are tools which real carpenters use on a day to day
basis. Other tools which were used in our production are tools which typical
carpenters would use. The tools on the worktop are perfectly placed next
to each other connoting to the audience that he has been through the
process more than once. We got this idea from Friday the 13th as in the film the antagonist uses a
wide range of tools to attack the characters in the film. Therefore we had decided to use a similar
idea by showing the different types of tools lying on the table helping to imply to the audience that
he the antagonist does this regularly.
Other tools which are used in our production such as the ropes that are tied round Lucys hands and
legs. Ropes are a typical prop which are used in conventional films since it helps to show the
protagonist to seem weak and vulnerable as in our production Lucy is unable to move her hands or
legs allowing the antagonist to torture her. We had our antagonist to wear thick gloves as it helped
to make our character more realistic, also having the antagonist wear gloves it connotes to the
audience that he does not like getting his hand dirty or blood all over them.

The protagonist is first introduced to the audience at the beginning of the opening sequence when
Lucy is coming out of the ladies toilet and then walking down the corridor. A medium shot is sued to
show Lucy come out the toilets and walk down the corridor which makes the audience feel
comfortable with the character till they see Lucy get taken. The protagonist is represented as
innocent and educated as she is still in school past school hours. The antagonist is first introduced
when he is wearing his carpentry gloves and walks into the workshop. A close up is used when
wearing his gloves and a wide medium shot is used to see the antagonist walk into the workshop
allowing to show the audience the antagonists costumes. The antagonist is wearing full overalls and
maggot mask, this makes the audience cringe as the mask is made up of maggots. The antagonist is
represented as creepy, dangerous and scary as he has snatched Lucy and he is wearing a creepy
mask making himself look scary to the audience following a typical convention by making the
audience scared of the antagonist.
