Chapter 1
When deciding how I wanted to approach this project, my focus reached towards those having visual interest. Specifically, development of my project through establishing background and possibly creating mystery.
I feel the understanding of the character has to start with what happened prior to the moment highlighted and/or defining the subject on screen, by providing information significant to the character development I will have connected my audience to the film on a deeper level. I will achieve development of context through various techniques some of which incorporate dialogue, this is a possible approach to inform the audience. Whether it be a direct confrontation to the audience, or the overhearing of a conversation. This will enable me to add multiple layers to my story, as I already have a foundation to build on, essentially engaging my viewers through more than just visualization.
Which brings me to my following point, once my audience has a relatively clear understanding I can bring along the element of mystery and/or surprise. My main thoughts are that I can achieve this through foreshadowing, or hinting of something of the past, possibly haunting my character/s, essentially posing a question. I would do this by possibly creating sounds offscreen, or if i am looking do add more of a creepy feel, possibly sudden unexpected movements in the background. This is a great way to keep my audience engaged, wanting to see the next scene.
