The colours we are going to use are going to be mainly neutral yet that somewhat reflect the innocence, curiosity and childish behavior demonstrated by Lily ( Libby) and this will all be symbolized through the bear which links to sentimentality and the security needed my little kids that have a strong connection with materialistic items that have meaning to them. We want our audience to feel suspense through Lily as she is unaware of her mistake and is solidly focused on her own adventure. They are also left on a line of suspense as from when lily is removed from the shot and they are left with a visual of an empty swing. This will hopefully scare the audience as they have built a connection with Lily and may even feel partially responsible as they knew what she had done was wrong however they were unable to stop her. And are unsure of what actually happened to her in the end. Did she get abducted? or did she go home?

Date of filming: 26th of May (Thursday) or 30th of May (Monday)

Time: during the evening when it is not going to be too dark as that will make lighting too difficult as well as making sure our talent is free at that time

 Props:

• A bear (or any stuffed animal that Libby can hold and shows sentimental value to her-can be symbolized)

• A light (Eg a torch or small kerosene lamp)

• Maybe some flowers for her to hold shows innocence and childish themes are brought through

Costumes

• A dress to show childish behavior, a sense of playfulness and innocence
