Iconography and setting was clearly emphasised with importance through Burton's theory. Iconography is key in identifying the genre of a film because of the connotations and the way it is percieved. For example, when we see a pumpkin, we immediately think of Halloween. This is a key icon which relates with the audience and also remains in the mind.
Our title being 'the examined' and our theme being around an exam environment, one of the key icons will be a ruler, students and teachers relate to this and its a symbol which will stick with the users. This may be our icon.
We will also consider the murder weapons which we will use, because we are planning a montage of deaths, we will show different weapons, however they will all show horror, knifes, stake and chainsaw.

Settings
- Exam hall - we will use the exam hall as our target audience can relate to this environment. They will connect with the pressure and anxiety and the themes of success vs. failure through the use of this location.
- Suicide girls house - we will use a normal house to shoot this scene as we are showing the normality at this scene. This relates back to Burtons theory of using a private or domestic sphere which builds on the idea of isolation and that your not safe in your own home. This builds on mystery.
- Underground of school - we will use the underground (the void) as it is an isolated area which signifies danger and displacement from society. It is also a small area which suggests individuals are trapped and their identities have been disguised, which is a feature of horror.
