Based on the BBFC guidelines, our film would likely receive a 15 rating due to its depiction of supernatural horror elements including ghosts that may disturb younger viewers under 15 years old. A 15 rating indicates the film is not suitable for those under 15 and allows an older teenage audience.

Narrative P
Our film is open narrative, Why?
• Our film goes through a story of Laura finding out about the ghosts and the
reasons for why they’re there, however at the end, we have a false ending.
Laura will think she solved the problem and free the sprits, however, they will
live on in the house and the problem will carry on, just not for Laura
• It leaves the audience asking questions at the end
How has it developed since Draft 1?
• Since draft 1, we have had a closed narrative, however, because we have
changed to the thriller genre we want to suit the conventions of how they
generally end their films and they usually have false ending so we have
developed it into a open narrative
11. Kaya
Narrative P
Our film is non-linear narrative, Why?
• Our film is a story that goes from start, middle, to end, however, in order to
show what happened in the house years before we will show cuts from way in
the past to the modern day
START MIDDLE END
How has this developed since draft 1?
• From draft 1 we weren't going to show the past time of what happened
before, however now we are showing important moments from the past in
order for the audience to understand

Film Theory Q
Tzvetan Todorov – Narrative Film Theorist
On the three stages of theme or concept throughout a
film,
How we will be using his theory…
Equilibrium – Laura has just moved in and her life is normal
Disequilibrium – She realises she's being haunted and they disrupt her life
New Equilibrium – She thinks she let the sprits go and moves house and her life is
equal again
13. Kaya
Film Theory Q
Vladimir Propp – Film Theorist
on characters contained in a film,
Why we wont be using his theory…
The villain – The two ghost are the villain type as they try to hurt Laura and disturb
her life.
The dispatcher – This doesn't apply to our film at all, there is no hero to send off
The (magical) helper – Laura’s best friend Dawn helps her to take the dolls away
The princess or prize – There is no prize and its based on real life
Her father – She doesn't have a father, it’s a broken family
The donor – The film is based on real life therefore no magical objects
The hero or victim/seeker hero – Laura acts as a hero in helping the sprits pass on
False hero – There is no hero therefore no false hero
14. Kaya
Film Theory Q
Claude Lévi-Strauss - Narrative Film Theorist
On Binary opposition
How we will be using this theory
Normal life : Haunted life Past : Present
Laura moves into We see the past
a house expecting happenings of the
a normal life house
She gets haunted
and disturbed We see the present
until she moves occurrences in that
house
out of the house

Titles S
The ring
During the opening of the ring, we
were inspired by the white colour of
the font making it look quite ghostly.
Also the way the text is not in line
made it seem more childlike, which
we thought would link to our childish
doll sentiments,
23. Kaya
Credits S
Devil - 2010
We were inspired by the credits in Devil because of the way the credits come on
screen then fade away after. We thought it suited our opening sequence in the
sense that it’s calm, just like the beginning of ours and now too attention
grabbing, so that our character is still the main focus.

Inspirational L
Non-diegetic sound
The sound used in insidious opening sequence has greatly
inspired me to use it through our opening sequence. It
creates a big climax with tensions as well as making it
uncomfortable and scary for the audience. It is a very high
pitched violin sound which gets extremely fast when the
tensions get to its highest points to a sudden stop or thud
perfect to fit with our opening sequence

BBFC And Rating
• It is impossible to predict what might upset any particular child. But a ‘U’ film should be suitable for audiences aged four
years and over. ‘U’ films should be set within a positive moral framework and should deal supportive offsets to any violence,
threat or horror.
• children of any age may watch. A ‘PG’ film should not disturb a child aged around eight or older. However, parents are
advised to consider whether the content may upset younger or more sensitive children.
• Exactly the same standards are used to classify works at ‘12A’ and ‘12’. These categories are awarded where the material is
suitable, in general, only for those aged 12 and over. Works classified at these categories may upset children under 12 or
contain material which many parents will find unsuitable for them.
• No one younger than 15 may see a ‘15’ film in a cinema. No one younger than 15 may rent or buy a ‘15’ rated video work.
• Only adults are admitted. Nobody younger than 18 can rent or buy an 18-rated VHS, DVD, Blu-ray Disc, UMD or game, or
watch a film in the cinema with this rating. Films under this category do not have control on the bad language that is used.
Scenes of strong real sex may be permitted if right by the context.
