2. We wanted to go for a naturalistic casual
clothing costume. This would make the audience
feel more comfortable and be able to engage in
a real life setting. We used this effect because it
is a thriller.
3. The main female character, wears
black Airforce trainers, these
trainers make the scene casual and
appropriate to the target audience.
By wearing a scarf, it
represents the weather and
how this reflects on the
characters emotions.
The use of a puffer jacket
represents the casual
naturalistic approach to
the film.
By holding a water bottle,
it represents her running
away from danger, this
could also be linked to the
idea that she is wearing
trainers.
Sophia is wearing a
rucksack, it is floral and a
pink colour. This
represents her age and
that she is a student.
The use of a
‘caution wet floor’
sign is another
signifier that she
could be running
into danger.
The use of black
jeans, reflects the
idea of black
connoting danger.
4. The dark gardening gloves
represent danger and hiding
his identity.
By also not showing the
actors face, it shows that
his identity is meant to
be hidden.
There is minimal clothing
shown in this shot. This
disguises the identity and
leaves the audience
waiting for more as it one
of the early shots.
By the killers hood being up, we
usually associate this to danger
and having a hidden identity.
By wearing a rucksack,
it shows the idea that
there could be
dangerous tools or
weapons in his bag.
The watch connotes the idea
that he has somewhere to be.
He is wearing a black jacket that
does not show a lot of skin this is to
hide from the CCTV, as he is about to
cause danger.
He is wearing dark trainers, this
represents the idea if he has to
run from authority.
6. The windows are
closed to make sure
nobody see’s what he
is doing, otherwise a
person in authority
may come to his
house.
There is washing up liquid in
the background, this can help
clear up any evidence.
The location is dark,
this connotes and
danger and makes
sure that nobody
see’s what is going
on.
We used a deserted train
station, this represents the
loneliness of all the characters
and why they are on a dating
website.
The setting is at a gloomy train
station, the weather
represents the darkness of the
storyline.
The use of a train
connotes the title of
the film, ‘On The
Line.’
7. The train station is deserted, the
only moving thing around except
for the train is a pigeon.
The platform is deserted
as there is a pigeon
walking across the
screen, it will be very
quiet as it walks across
the whole frame.
The ‘I Love Mormon’
poster connotes that
she is lonely and
looking for love.
We chose an empty carriage
to represent her loneliness.
The use of framing the red
poles, connotes danger, as red
is associated with fire. It also
connotes love, she is looking
for love.
