*Sound List*

WHERE SOUND WHY IS IT USED WHEN IS

FROM IT USED
SOUND Silence I’m using silence
Sound because in some
comedic short films,
silence draws out 07:12 –
the funniness of the 07:30
scene. It can
sometimes make
things awkward that
then become
funny.
FOLEY Nature I’m choosing to add All
Sound (Birds, trees rustling) these sounds outdoor
because it adds scenes
more to the
FOLEY Twig snapping atmosphere. The
Sound films silent so by 06:05 –
having foley sounds 06:15
I can layer them
FOLEY and make it more
Sound appealing so they
you can feel that
you’re there.

*Actors*

ACTOR ROLE DATE NEEDED

Jack Penton Jack will be playing one of the main January 2019
characters, he will be the man in
the couple. I feel that jack would
really suit this role, as he’s sarcastic
and can over exaggerate his facial
expressions. The most important
part of this role is that he needs to
show he’s trying to poison the
woman’s drink and he’s trying to be
sneaky but then he’s almost caught.
He needs to show that he’s rolling
his eyes and that he’s exasperated
that his plans not working.
 Production Booklet

Charlotte Harper Charlotte really suits this role; the January 2019
woman is very oblivious to the killer
and she doesn’t even realise that
the man is trying to poison her. I
know Charlotte can do this.
